Worship Him's multiple monitor support:

     The ability of Worship Him to utilize a second monitor for the projector display helps make it one of the easiest and most flexible presentation tools possible. Here are some common questions and answers about multiple monitors.


1- What is 'multiple monitors?
     Multiple monitors is a Windows feature that allows a computer to utilize more than one monitor. This typically means 2 or more video cards and monitors on one computer together forming one large windows desktop, and allows you to view a different program in each monitor simultaneously. Worship Him is designed to use a second video card or monitor output to supply the image to a video projector instead of a second monitor screen. This allows the Worship Him operator to have a display independent of what the video projector is showing.


2- What advantage does multiple monitors give to Worship Him?
    With multiple monitors, the Worship Him operator's computer monitor is independent of the projector's display. This means the Worship Him operator can browse songs, search, select songs from the queue list, etc without causing any interruption of the projector's display. Also, the operator simply clicks on the verse he or she wants and the projector displays it. Without multiple monitors, the operator's control screen and projector must share the same display.



 

Setting up a multiple monitor computer:


Q: How do I get multiple monitors to work?

Answer:
If your computer supports dual monitors:

Start with the computer turned off.
Plug in the projector’s VGA cable to the external VGA port on the back of the laptop, or second VGA port on your desktop computer.
Turn on the computer and wait for Windows to finish loading.
Windows XP and below: Right-click on an empty part of the windows desktop and select ‘Properties’. The ‘Display properties’ window will appear. Select the ‘Settings’ tab at the top.
 Windows Vista: Right-click on an empty part of the windows desktop and select 'Personalize' then click 'Display settings'.
You should see a picture with two monitors shown – one with a ‘1’ in it and the other with a ‘2’ in it. Click on the ‘2’ monitor and put a check in the box labeled ‘Extend my windows desktop onto this monitor’ and click ‘OK’.
Run Worship Him. If Worship Him does not automatically detect and use the second monitor proceed to step 7, otherwise you’re done!
From the Worship time window’s menu select ‘Options’, ‘Projector display options’ then ‘Edit default projector setup’. This will bring up the projector setups window.
Find the ‘Projector monitor #’ option and set it to ‘2’.
Click the ‘Save as default’ button, then click the ‘Done’ button.

Some computers automatically disable the second monitor if nothing is plugged into it when the computer is turned on, so it's always a good idea to plug the projector in before you turn the computer on.
