The Presenter program is primarily used to display results on display screens, it offers more advanced customisation of the display and more functionality than the browser based Present Results, similarly it also uses the output lists which you have setup in your event file. Customisation of the display is controlled by both the Presenter settings and the Output List page settings as explained in the following sections. 

You can select to run the presenter as a "Local Presenter" or from one of 10 "Remote Controlled Presenter" options, when run locally the settings can only be controlled by the machine running the program. If you want to be able to control the display from another computer then you can use a remote controlled presenter, in this mode the settings are updated from the server and so you can update the settings from another computer without exiting the display.
