Hello,

does anybody know if there is a way to script the retrieval of certain information from a Barco projector?

I would like to find a way to retrieve information from all my projectors at the same time.

For an example: click on a button and get all the ages of the xenon lamps. I would prefer not to pass by the communicator software. And yes all my projectors are in the same network.

Thanks for the feedback.

SMTP function will do that.

Any way of getting some more information? This is a little vague to start with (started with google and got lots of email settings).

Thanks.
Kris

You should consult the manufacturer directly - and/or your integartor.

I mean Barco can support SNMP, but this is a optional function that need to be activated (and most of the time, payed I guess... ).

You can also talk to the projector using the Barco API (the same one Barco Communicator is using), but this is a CONFIDENTIAL document - to have it, you should ask to Barco.

Meanwhile, you can still use a http (TCP/80) connexion to the barco to grab some basic information if needed.

Hope this'll help [Wink]
