Chapter 1 Introduction
Overview
The PJ Master is a software to manage and control targets (Projectors and PDP monitors) in a
network centrally, and forms a tree structure with the targets and servers. The top server manages
operating condition of the targets centrally and provides functions to control targets and update the
software remotely. The PJ Master operates in cooperation with database software, registers all the
information in the database, and displays them on the status window.
Features
- Managing the operation condition of targets centrally.
- Central controlling the targets by serial command transferring via the network.
- Updating the firmware of the projectors *.
- Updating the program of the PJ Master on the servers.
- Updating the firmware of Network Board on the targets.
* Only the model which supports the firmware updating via the network.
System chart
Following example shows a system configuration char t using with the PJ Master. All the projectors
and PDP monitors are controlled and monitored by the top server.

When the alert occurs on the target or server
If the abnormality or connection error occurs on the target (Projector or PDP monitor), the PJ Master
indicates target name and status column item with red to let you know the abnormality, also changes
color of icon to red.
If one of the targets has an alert, the icon color of upper server which that target is linked changes
to red. Its server brings up the aler t information to the another upper ser ver and finally the aler t
information is brought up to the top server. The icon color of server including the top server on
which the alert is detected changes to red. So if the icon color of the top server is red, there may be
some alerts on targets in the network.
* To judge the condition of the target “Alert” or “Status” when the connection error occurs, it is according
to your selection of the connection event during the installation. (p.12)
