LVMC CMT – LVMC Configuration and Monitoring Tool
Configuration, operation, analysis and monitoring of the LVMC
are performed via the Microsoft Windows based software LVMC
CMT (“LVMC Configuration and Monitoring Tool”). The software
can be downloaded from the OPTRONIC website
in section DOWNLOAD. Select the latest ver-
sion with the highest version number that matches the interface
version of the firmware of your LVMC. The interface version is
labeled with a capital letter followed by a numeral. It changes
when the firmware incorporates significant new features that
bring changes to the interface between the LVMC firmware and
the CMT.
5.1
Requirements
The LVMC CMT runs on PCs with Windows 8 or Windows 10
operating systems. There are no special requirements for com-
puting power, main memory and disk storage. The screen reso-
lution should be at least Full HD (1920x1080 pixels).
5.2
Interface Compatibility
The interface versions of the CMT and the light curtain firmware must match so that the CMT can communi-
cate with the light curtain. CMT displays the interface version directly after the start in the title bar and in the
message log window (“A2” in the picture below).
When establishing a connection with the LVMC, the interface version of the light curtain is read out and
checked for conformity with the interface version of the CMT. If they do not match, an error message pops
up and the connection is terminated. There is thus no danger of accessing an LVMC with an incompatible
CMT.
