Barco – Apollo – DOC-3197-2 – user's manual – Revision 08 – November 2006
The SNMP Manager runs on the computer that holds the control room database.
The devices supported by Apollo 1.5are all controlled via the Barco RC Agent.
To make use of the Device Manager, the SNMP agents first have to be installed! They are
provided on the Apollo CD-ROM. With each Apollo Release, the required RC agent is provided.
In case there is already an RC Agent installed on your system,check its version, and upgrade if
it's different from the one supplied on the Apollo CD-ROM.
The object tree shows all devices available in the Apollo Project.
However, it is not possible to change the configuration or to remove/add devices from the Apollo project.
The workspace area shows the names of all devices. Double click on the name of a device to open its property
dialog box or select it using the context menu.
Besides showing static information about device type, serial number, firmware version, software version, and
the current status of the device; device-specific settings can be changed by means of the property dialog box.
The following sections explain the property dialog box of all devices supported by Apollo.
