TekWizard

TekWizard is used to configure a TekManager
Project or a TekMonitor directly. During system
configuration, TekWizard guides the administrator
through an intuitive process of; entering information
about the TekMonitor, selecting device drivers,
creating macros, events, and schedules. Navigation
through the TekWizard is accomplished by using the
Previous and Next buttons or clicking on any of the
following eight steps:

START
LOCATION

SETTINGS
DEVICES

MACROS
EVENTS

SCHEDULES

FINISH

TekWizard - START

START

During the Start process, the administrator can select from a set of TekMonitor and Device Templates to

utilize “as is” or create an independent template. The purpose of the templates is to increase productivity
by reusing common information. Included in TekWizard are several application templates that match the
described application in the CS - TEK 1 Applications.pdf. By using these templates, an administrator is
able to gain valuable knowledge into the configuration of a TekMonitor.

There are two types of Templates:

 TekMonitor
 Device


Having two templates allows for a more efficient way to configure a system. For example; a campus with
several of the same type of projectors may all use the same Device Template and only slight
modifications are needed for the TekMonitor Template.

TekMonitor Template
A TekMonitor template stores general information about a TekMonitor including Location information,
Network settings, Email settings, Email messages and asset information.

Driver Template
A Driver template stores information about the connected device on the serial port, inputs name,
outputs names and configuration, Macros, Events and Schedules.

Get Monitor Templates
This button allows for downloading templates stored within a TekMonitor, and presenting them in the
TekMonitor and Device icon lists. They will be indicated by the serial number of the monitor they were
downloaded from, and template name given when stored. When drivers are stored within the
TekMonitor via TekWizard, TekMonitor and Device templates are also stored automatically.

The user is required to select a TekMonitor template which then enables the Device template
selection. Once the Device template is selected, the user may then proceed to the next step via the

“Next” button.
