Force madmapper to output to external monitor

I have an optoma projector that is able to wake on signal detection. Its for a video installation so what I do is to set my macbook pro to wake up every day at 6pm, thus turning on the projectors.
Is there any way I could get madmapper to force its output to the second monitor when it appears? Like a script in automater?
Thanks.

currently there's no way to do this internally.
Maybe an apple script can do this.
When your computer starts up at 6AM, does it wakes the projectors ?
If yes, then you could script MadMapper to launch on startup...
Have you tried already ?

Optoma HD33.
Any solution so far?

What you might be able to do is to make an apple script that opens your madmapper project after say 30 seconds or 1min so the projector had time to start and synch with your mac. At that time, Madmapper will output to the projector by itself.

Hi,
I'm looking for use 6 MadMapper + Modul8 for a 2 months video installation.
I use a AppleScript to Launch the Md8 project and 6 MadMapper project,
but i need to reconnect manually the MadMapper outputs w/ the VideoCards Outputs.
Modul8 & MadMapper are scriptable for Automatic Launch with AppleScript, can we
access to Menu's Items of the application with the AS? There is no dictionary for AS?
Cheers
