The feature means that the device can sense changes on its ports and able to react
according to the pre-defined settings. The development idea of the Event manager
is based on users' feedbacks. In many cases internal events (such as signal present
or HDCP active) are necessary to display but it is not easy when the device is hard
to access (e.g. built under the desk). For more details and examples about Event Manager please visit our
website (www.lightware.com) and download Event Manager user's guide in the Downloads section.
The Event manager can be configured to perform an action if a condition has been detected. E.g. the desired
setup is that after a certain type of signal has been detected on I1 port, the port has to be switched to O1.
The settings can be done via the LDC in the Control/Events tab, or by LW3 protocol commands. Configurable
events number depends on the device what you are using actually.
Numerous new ideas and requests have been received in connection with the features and settings of the
Event manager since the first release. Therefore, the user interface has been re-designed and many new
functions implemented. The Event editor can be opened by pressing the Edit button at each Event.
There is a grey bar on the left of the Event panel in each line. If a condition and an action are set and the Event
is enabled, the bar is displayed in green.
