List of Features (in alphabetical order)
DIFFERENCE:
The availability of the features are device-dependent, see the table at the following page.
4K and 3D Support
High bandwidth allows extension of resolutions up to 4K and even 3D sources and displays are
supported.
Audio Embedder and De-embedder Function
The analog audio can be embedded to HDMI outputs and embedded audio can be routed to
the analog audio output.
Autoselect Function for Video Inputs
The Autoselect feature can sense the port status on the video input ports and select one of
them automatically. Various modes are available: first detect, last detect, priority detect.
LWR
Basic IT-security
These entry-level network security improvements help prevent unauthorized access to the
Lightware device; cleartext login, TCP port blocking and MAC address filtering.
Batch of Commands
A batch of LW3 commands (salvo) can be run by the Lightware device either by a previously
stored macro or by sending a file to the device with the desired commands.
CEC
Consumer Electronics Control
Supports transmitting standard CEC commands in order to remote control the source or sink
device.
Dark Mode
Rental application requires this function, which keeps the LEDs unlit to hide the device during
the event.
Deep Color Support and Conversion
It is possible to transmit the highest quality 36-bit video streams for perfect color reproduction.
Ethernet Control
Multiple simultaneous TCP/IP connections are available with a simple ASCII-based protocol
for controlling or configuring the product or to perform a firmware update.
Event Manager
The Event Manager tool takes care of all the necessary control in a smaller configuration by
performing predefined actions in response to device status changes.
Event M
Triggering a condition, defining variables and checking two conditions for an action – these
features are available by the improved Event Manager.
Forced Button Lock
The front panel buttons can be locked and unlocking is only possible via LW3 protocol
command.
Frame Detector
The exact video and audio signal format can be determined such as timing, frequencies, scan
mode, HDCP encryption, color range, color space and audio sample rate.
GPIO Control Port
7 GPIO pins operating at TTL digital signal levels that can be controlled with both LW2 and LW3
commands.
HDCP-compliant
The receiver fulfills the HDCP standard. HDCP capability on the digital video inputs can be
disabled when non-protected content is extended.
Infra Code Sending
IR code sending in Pronto Hex format – in Command injection mode, too. The code sending is
available as an Action in Event manager, too.
Miniweb
The Miniweb is able to display an adaptive surface with a virtual crosspoint and buttons for
Event manager Actions. The miniweb can be displayed in a mobile device, too.
Pixel Accurate Reclocking
Each output has a clean, jitter free signal, eliminating signal instability and distortion caused by
long cables or connector reflections.
RS-232
11 0100 1
x
RS-232 Recognizer
Supports recognizing incoming RS-232 messages to integrate with 3rd party devices like the
video conference codec devices.
RS-232
RS-232 Transmission
AV systems can also contain serial port controllers and controlled devices. Bi-directional serial
port pass-through supports any unit that works with standard RS-232.
TCP
11 0100 1
x
TCP Recognizer
Supports recognizing the incoming TCP messages to integrate with 3rd party devices like the
video conference codec devices.
USB 2.0 Switch – 4x1
The USB 2.0 layer provides the switching of four external USB peripherals (e.g. webcamera,
speakerphone, multitouch display, etc.) to four independent host computers or laptops.
