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.

Connecting by the USB Port

Connect the supplied USB cable between the device and the computer and start the LDC.  

The device is displayed under the 

USB devices

 section; select it then press 

Connect

.

Crosspoint Menu

When LDC connects to the device, the Crosspoint menu is shown as default. The input and 

output port settings are available separately for the video and audio signals. Besides, the 

following tools are available:

Frame Detector

The  ports  can  show  detailed 

information about the signal like 

blanking  intervals  and  active 

video  resolution.  This  feature 

is  a  good  troubleshooter  if 

compatibility  problems  occur 

during system installation.

Test Pattern Generator

The output ports can send a special image towards the sink devices for testing purposes. The 

settings of the test pattern are available via LDC:

Mode

 

ƒ

On:

 the test pattern is always sent to the output port.

 

ƒ

Off:

 the test pattern generator is off.

 

ƒ

No signal:

 the test pattern generator is switched on if video signal is not detected.

Clock Source

 

ƒ

480p / 576p / Original video signal: the clock frequency of the test pattern.

Pattern

 

ƒ

Red / Green / Blue / Black / White / Ramp / Chess / Bar / Cycle. Cycle setting means all 

the patterns are changed sequentially approx. in every 2 seconds.

EDID Management

Advanced EDID Management can be accessed by selecting the EDID menu. The software 

allows to create, modify, delete, import, or export EDIDs. Please note that the factory presets 

cannot be modified.

 EDID emulation is available only by the EDID rotary switches on the device.

Backup and Restore (Configuration Cloning)

This simple method eliminates the need to repeatedly 

configure  certain  devices  to  have  identical  (non-

factory)  settings.  If  the  devices  are  installed  in  the 

same type of system multiple times then it is enough 

to set up only one device to fit the user’s needs and then copy those settings to the others, thus 

saving time and resources. Installing multiple devices with the same customized configuration 

settings can be done in a few easy steps:
1.  Configure one device with all your desired settings with the LDC software.

2.  Backup the full configuration file to your computer.

3.  If needed, make some modifications to the configuration file using a text editor.

4.  Connect  to  the  other  device  which  has  to  be  configured  and  upload  (restore)  your 

configuration file.

Firmware Upgrade – Using Lightware Device Updater (LDU)

Preparation

The followings are necessary to perform a firmware upgrade:

 

ƒ

Lightware Device Updater software - available on 

www.lighware.eu

,

 

ƒ

Firmware package of the device (LFP file) - please contact 

[email protected]

.

Performing the Upgrade

1.  Connect a PC/laptop to the USB port of the device by the supplied USB cable.

2.  Start the LDU software and follow the instructions shown on the screen.

Starting the Unit in Bootload Mode

If the usual firmware upgrade cannot be performed for any reason, try the following:
1.  Press the LEARN button and keep it pressed.

2.  Press and release the hidden button.

3.  Release the LEARN button. The device is restarted in bootload mode. The LIVE LED 

blinks fast.
