Logging on to the Monitor Wall Using the RCP-200

To log on to a Kaleido-X room from the RCP-200

1 On an RCP-200 with an active connection to the network, press the LIST button.

All devices, and Kaleido-X rooms, detected by the RCP-200 appear on the left screen.
Kaleido-X rooms are listed in the form [multiviewer name]\[room name].

If a room belongs to a cluster system, its name appears once for each of the member
multiviewers (e.g., if two multiviewers, KX1 and KX2, are configured as a cluster, and
ROOM1 includes displays fed by both multiviewers, then both KX1\ROOM1 and
KX2\ROOM1 will be listed. To determine the one you should select, review the
following:

• Has the RCP user configuration you wish to use been replicated on every member

of the cluster (see

Replicating RCP Users Across a Cluster System

on page 94)?

• Do you need to control an external router whose configuration is available only

from one or some specific members of the cluster?

• Does your system configuration include actions that were configured only on one

or some specific members of the cluster?

• Do you need to control a timer from the monitor wall in a cascade room?

If any of the above elements is available only from one or some specific members, then
make sure you select the room name prefixed with the appropriate multiviewer name.
In the case of a cascade room, unless you remember which multiviewer you were
connected to when you added the timer you need to control, you will have to proceed
by trial and error.

2 Touch the room you wish to access (press the DOWN or UP soft keys to scroll the list as

needed).

3 If the list of users assigned to this room appears on the right-hand screen, touch the

user name under which you wish to log on, enter your password, and then touch LOG
IN.

The room’s monitor wall control panel appears on the right-hand screen, with the
ASSIGN CHANNEL category selected. If a mouse is connected to the RCP-200, then after

• Two users accessing the same display will be limited to sharing a single

pointer.

Note:

By default, the user “Admin” has no password.
