The System has 3 hardware “parts”: (see also How it works)

MANAGER PC defines what you want to be displayed at each location.
PLAYER PC stores what is going to be displayed on the screen/s attached to it. Must be dedicated to this use only.
SCREENS (LCD or Plasma) which are attached to the Player PC

For Scenario 2, you may use the same PC as both Manager & Player. HOWEVER you will need to stop the Player running when using the Manager.

Hardware Specifications

MANAGER PC - any standard Windows XP PC

PLAYER PC - Minimum specs:
Windows XP SP2; Intel Pentium 4 CPU; 256MB RAM; 40GB HDD; CD-ROM Drive; 10/100Mbit Ethernet network connection.

Graphics Card: Any standard good quality 800x600 32-bit colour display card should be adequate. The number of independent screens (i.e. each showing its own content) you can attach to 1 PC will be dependent on the hardware used. For screens playing the same content use a splitter. Screen resolution used is usually 800x600 (maximum resolution of standard definition plasma screens). Higher resolution graphics cards can be set to a lower resolution for use by Digital Recall Player.

SCREENS – Preferably wide-screen Plasma or LCD screens.

CABLING FROM PLAYER PC TO SCREEN – DVI: Using copper cable the limits are approximately 9 meters. Repeater may be required for longer lengths.

VGA : Using high quality cables the max range is about 10 meters. VGA-Analogue repeater solutions permit 10's and 100's of meters of signal--at lower resolutions.

CAT 5: For long distances, use Cat 5 network cable with VGA to Cat-5 adapters at either end.
