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.
