Yes - it is possible to view different sets of machines on two screens, although if you have set up classroom groups it is not possible to open one group in one window and another group in another window. You need to connect to all computers at the same time, but only view one set of computers in one window and the other set of computers in the other window.


If you want to work with classroom groups, you could always set up a group made of two combined groups (e.g. Classroom A and B). However, make sure you do not set different classroom group passwords if you have 3 groups, Classroom A, Classroom B and Classroom A and B - as you can only set one classroom group password per group, and there would be a conflict if you had one password for Classroom A and a different one for Classroom A and B.

To view different machines on two screens:

1. Launch AB Tutor Control and connect to all the computers you wish to monitor.

2. Select the first set of computers you wish to watch, and click the 'watch' button. This will open up a window showing the first set of computers. Drag this window into your second screen.

3. Go back to the AB Tutor Control window, and select the second set of computers you wish to watch. Again, click on the 'Watch' button. You now will have two separate windows

For this to work, you must make sure that you are not watching in full screen mode. To watch in windowed mode, you need to click on the 'resize' button in the watch toolbar.
