  • Page 6 INTRODUCTION The LM-5 LightMouse of WORK makes the lighting control at events and facilities, may finally be something accessible to everyone, not just a territory restricted to people with technical training in lighting. Thanks to it can be controlled through open protocol OSC (Open Sound Control), the LM-5 LightMouse allows end users to design their own lighting console appropriate to their needs, in order to control the installation using WIFI connection through your iPhone or Android device.

    SETUP AND USE WorkNet Mode In WorkNet mode, the LM-5 operates as a receiver of information sent DMX by the device LM-3E (issuer). Therefore, in this operation mode, the LM-5 always be used in combination with a LM-3E, and both devices mustconfigured in the same group (or DMX Universe). In this way, and generalized to more of a receiving device, the information sent by a LM-3E will be received by LM-5 those configured in the same group as the LM-3E issuer.
