3.8.3.
USB Control Interface
The device can be controlled over front panel USB mini B-type connector. This interface only supports LW3
protocol. The interface can be used to establish a connection to Lightware Device Controller software.
3.9. Further Built-in Features
3.9.1. Automatically Launched Actions – the Event Manager
The Event manager feature means that the device can sense changes on its ports and is able to react
according to the pre-defined settings. Lightware Device Controller contains a user-friendly software tool and
allows to create Events by defining a Condition and an Action.
Event manager example
See more information about the settings in
section.
3.9.2. Matrix Cloning – Backup and Restore the Configuration
The matrix (configuration) cloning of MMX6x2-HT devices is a simple method that 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.

3.9.3. Remote Firmware Upgrade of Connected Lightware Devices
The firmware of the Lightware TPS devices can be upgraded individually by Lightware Device Updater (LDU)
software. MMX6x2 HT series contains a new feature which allows having a faster and more comfortable
firmware upgrade process. When the firmware of the connected extenders has to be upgraded the TPS
connection is necessary towards the extenders – nothing else. The LDU will find the connected devices and
can upgrade them.
The upgrade process is almost the same as in the case of the usual upgrade process. See the details of the
process in
Remote Firmware Upgrade of Connected Lightware Devices
section.
ATTENTION!
The feature is supported by firmware v1.1.0 or above.
