Connecting a VGA monitor, keyboard and mouse to the Intuition XG device’s rear panel
connectors (see
page 2-5 or page 2-11 ) allows you to view and interact with the Intuition
XG’s desktop and software applications. Upon startup, the Intuition XG automatically opens
its desktop applications, which are used for configuring and controlling the Intuition XG
device locally. Once the device is properly configured, these applications are only needed
for maintenance. As such, the monitor, keyboard, and mouse can be disconnected.
The following sections describe the Intuition XG’s desktop appearance, as well as the
various software applications or tools that the Intuition XG makes available through its
desktop:
•
“Intuition XG’s desktop - device identification” on page 3-2
• “Intuition XG Control Panel and XG Dashboard” on page 3-3
• “Xplay - Playout control application” on page 3-5
• “Vertigo Command Shell” on page 3-10

Although it is not directly an Intuition XG desktop application, the Intuition XG Portal is
another software tool that is used to configure and monitor the state of the Intuition XG
device from a remote workstation. See
“Intuition XG Portal - Intuition XG’s Remote
Configuration Tool” on page 4-1 for more information.
