DDM 2.0 Remote Management and Control for IT managers
Hello there,
What is Dell Display Manager (Remote Management and Control (for IT managers only)
Could I please have that documentation about the Remote Management capabilities mentioned there?
DDM 2.0 comes with CLI commands for querying asset inventory logs and to set basic monitor settings. CLI commands are restricted for IT managers only. Contact Dell sales representative for more information.
I don't know how I get a "IT-Manager" or if I'd want that actually, but what I want is to fully use the productive potential of my new U4320Q with some custom scripts that change my PBP configuration on-demand.
The possibilities the GUI offers aren't enough for that and I know that the CLI options have the possibility to change this settings. I already figured out some things according to some old and partly outdated post I found throughout these forums. But none of them seem to be accurate for the current release and it'd be nice to not figure everything out by trial-error.
Thanks, Manu

Do you have any examples of how to use: WritePxP [Off/PiP/PBP Main Sub1] = Change PIP/PBP settings
Specifically, I'm trying to configure PBP.
