How do I control the presentation from another computer?

Gary McCall

I want to run the computer that controls the projectors from another windows based computer on the pulpit. How do I set up to do that?

Hunter Clagett

There are a number of ways you could set that up. Probably the easiest would be to use the Remote Desktop feature to run the presentation computer from the Pulpit computer.

Otherwise, you could use our Proclaim Remote app for mobile devices (iOS and Android) to control the presentation.

How can I use remote desktop to control the computer that runs the projector?

When I connect to a computer remotely the local display goes blank and the display switches to my laptop. At my laptop I cannot control display settings, including the projector. Is there a way to do this?

Also you mentioned iphone and android apps. Is there a windows phone app available?

Not at the moment although it is something Logos might look at in the future as per http://community.logos.com/forums/t/43136.aspx

You'll need to configure Remote Desktop to enable multiple monitor support. You can see how to do that here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Remote-Desktop-Connection-frequently-asked-questions

No, there is not a Windows Phone Version at this time.

Thanks! I am going to try the app with my Ipad this Sunday and a controller at the computer for backup.
