Monitor Groups
A monitor group is simply a set of monitors that was given a name and is recorded into the broadcaster. Calling a group just checks the monitors that are members of this group. Then commands can be send to checked monitors. Please note that you can check the monitors by hand as well, by using th right click. Groups are just a convenient and fast way for checking a well known set of monitors. They are especially useful in large networks.
NB: Future versions will permit to send some commands programmed by timers to groups of monitors.
Adding a New Group
Check a set of monitors in the network panel. In the main menu, select Groups/New Group. Give a label to this group and click OK. The group is recorded into the broadcaster. Each time you will recall this group, the same set of monitors will be checked automatically.
Group Lists
Group lists are kept in the broadcaster Flash memory. To recall a group, in the main menu select Groups/List of Groups... and click on the group name. The corresponding monitors are checked into the network panel. You can still add or suppress some monitors by clicking on them.
Group Commands
In the main menu, select Groups/Send Command to Checked Monitors... In the Group box, you can enable or disable the video and the audio to these monitors, set the audio volume, change the serial connection settings. The commands are broadcasted to checked monitors when you click on OK.
