With the distributed system, the O
machines. Each rendering machine operates a rectangular array of projection modules within a display wall. The
actual subdivision into arrays depends on the requirements of each display wall (e. g. displaying video). The
following figure shows an example for a 9×5 arrangement:
Additional information about the assignment of rendering machines and projection modules
can be found in section
The rendering machines are connected to the central E
Network). Therefore the central unit is equipped with an additional network card. If also for the LAN connection an
extra network card is used and not the onboard LAN adapter, then the network card with the lower Ethernet
address, respectively the higher PCI slot number connects to the LAN, the card with the higher Ethernet address,
respectively the lower PCI slot number connects to the Sub-net.
