SYSTEM OVERVIEW

WAtcHPAX 60 is used as part of a WAtcHout multi-display system.
Production
computer
In the schematic above, there is a laptop (production computer) running WAtcHout software and
equipped with a WAtcHout license key. this connects to a network switch which, in turn, connects
to a dataton WAtcHPAX 60 media server. the WAtcHPAX unit connects and manages the display
devices. In the example, these consist of four LEd screens.

WATCHPAX 60 IN YOUR RIG

the WAtcHPAX has four displayPort outputs. used as is, it will manage four display devices in your
presentation. Splitters may also be used to increase the number of display devices managed. the
system is scalable; as the number of display devices increases, add more media servers to your rig.
to implement the bi-directional SdI in WAtcHPAX 60 c model, please read
ModEL c"and "4. SYncHronIZAtIon".
As all dataton media servers (WAtcHPAX or WAtcHMAX ranges) have a built-in WAtcHout
license, the only additional license key required is for your production computer. If you are not using a
dataton media server (WAtcHPAX or WAtcHMAX) you will need a WAtcHout license key for
each media server/display computer.

DISPLAY DEVICES

In the illustration above,four LEd screens are used as the display devices. However, WAtcHout can
be used with virtually any display device that can be connected to a computer (such as projectors,
Lcd panels, LEd walls etc).
