InFocus Locator Service
The InFocus Locator Service is a central service where the Projec-
torNet MMC snap-in initially reports when installed, and where
the administrative software is installed. The InFocus Locator Ser-
vice assigns ProjectorNet a specific location to report to once its
initial location is recorded. The InFocus Locator Service locates
all of the other services, the administrative and directory services.
The InFocus Locator Service is also responsible for authenticating
the user's login account and privilege level.
Systems Administrators can start and stop this service but cannot
pause it. Stopping the InFocus Locator Service does not result in
any loss of data.
InFocus Directory Service
The InFocus Directory Service is responsible for storing and then
providing the location of projectors and other resources. Admin-
istrators can start and stop this service but cannot pause it. Stop-
ping the InFocus Directory Service does not result in loss of data.
InFocus Serial Filter Service
The InFocus Serial Filter Service is a Windows NT service that is
responsible for forwarding commands from an A/V control sys-
tem (such as Crestron or AMX) to projectors. While forwarding
commands, it filters out "heartbeats" and unwanted characters
that may originate with the responses travelling from projectors
to the control system.
Startup Type
The Startup Type options define how the service is activated.
Your choices are:
• Automatic
starts. This is the default.
• Manual
• Disabled
user or a dependent service. This is not a common choice,
as the service will not function if it is disabled.
