4.7.1.
Device Control over Ethernet
The interface can be also used to remote control a third-party device and establish the connection to
LightwareDeviceUpdatersoftwareandperformfirmwareupdate.
Third-party Device Control via Local Ethernet (Example)
Thefollowingwaysareavailablefordevicecontrol:
▪
The
system controller
can communicate with the
transmitter
via Ethernet using LW2/LW3 protocol
commands.
▪
The
system controller
can communicate with the
projector
byitsIP:portaddress.
▪
The
transmitter
cansendcommands(e.g.asanactionbytheEventManager)totheIP:portaddress
of the
projector
byusingLW3protocolcommands.SeeEventManagerusageinthe
section,andfindtherelatedLW3protocolcommandsinthe

4.7.2.
Wake-on-Lan
DIFFERENCE:
ThisfeatureisavailablefromFWpackagev1.5.0b3.
The well-known wake-on-lan feature (sending magic Packet to the target PC) is available. This can be used
topoweronacomputerautomatically:justsendasimpleLW3command,see
INFO:
Please make sure the feature is enabled in the target PC and it is powered (but switched off).
4.7.3.
TCP Recognizer
DIFFERENCE:
ThisfeatureisavailableonlyinHDMI-TPS-RX110AY-PlusmodelfromFWpackagev1.5.0b3.
ThefeatureisalmostthesameasincaseoftheRS-232butforthenetworkinterface:theincomingTCP
messages can be processed which may trigger actions. The combination of the TCP recognizer and the
Event Manager gives numerous opportunities for creating automatic room solutions.

TCP Recognizer Example

Whenthepower-offprocessisstartedintheprojector,itwillsendamessageoverEthernet.Thatmessage
will be recognized by the
Switcher
and will be used as a Condition in Event Manager.
How to setup the transmitter?
Step 1.
Configure the recognizer for the communication by the LDC, see the
section,orbyLW3protocolcommands(see
section).Define
the desired device as a TCP client. (The Projector is saved as 'C1' in this example.)
Step 2.

Whenthe

message is recognized from the C1 client, the GPIO pin 1 is set to
low level.

Running Macros
In this case, the command sequences (macros) are stored in the device. You can create your custom macros
inafile,uploadintothedeviceandrunatanytime.Thenumberofthemacrosdependsonthedevicetype,
at most 50 macros can be saved in the receiver. See more information about the feature in the
section.
