4.12 Upgrading the Display Wall configuration
Whenever new and/or additional devices are added to the configuration, this expansion of the Display Wall con-
figuration has to be included into the Visio drawing!
All configuration files (*.ini, *.cn) are generated by the Apollo 1.8 Control Room Configurator.
If the Control Room Configurator was selected when installing individual components and if the
standard directory was used for the installation, then the following folder was created: ...
Program Files\Barco Apollo\Control Room Configurator.
Copy this folder to the following directory:
… \Visio\Solutions
To update an existing visio configuration proceed as follows:
• In Microsoft Visio, open the template Control Room Configuraton.vst.
• Right click into the template to open the context menu.
• From the context menu, select Import and Upgrade Drawing
The dialogs pops up to open a file. Browse for the Visio configuration file of the existing project.
• The file will be imported. At the same time, the shapes are updated.
• Adjust the configuration (add/modify the devices)
• Save the file
• Create the configuration files by means of the command Export Files of the context menu (right mouse
click)
• Copy the configuration files into the folder of the Apollo Project.
Starting with Apollo 1.4 SR3, an existing Apollo Explorer.ini file is automatically
upgraded in case devices which are supported for the first time are added to the
configuration.
This upgrade maintains the existing customizations of e.g. the context menus of the
devices.
