Typical application
Software control – Using Lightware Device Controller (LDC)
The device can be controlled from a computer using the Lightware Device
Controller software. The application is available at www.lightware.eu
(Support / Downloads section), install it on a Windows PC or a Mac OS X
and connect to the device. The following ways are available to connect to
the device directly:
Local USB port
Connect a USB cable (with mini B-type connector) between the matrix and the computer
and start the LDC. The device is displayed under the USB devices section; press Connect.
Local RS-232 port
Connect a serial cable between the matrix and the computer and start the LDC. Press
the Query button of the connected COM port to list the device and press Connect. See
the Factory default settings table for the RS-232 port parameters. The local RS-232
port settings are available in the front panel menu. Navigate to Settings / Control RS232
submenu. The following parameters can be set: Baud rate, Data Bits, Stop Bits and Parity.
LAN port
Connect the supplied LAN crosslink cable between the matrix and the computer for direct
connection or connect to an Ethernet. The default network settings are listed in above table
which can be changed via the front panel menu.
