Description

nControl is an industrial network PC server running ControlManager application software. ControlManager provides a platform for MediaMatrix control systems. It can be custom configured to monitor and control multiple NWare projects, consisting of NIONs, CABs, amplifiers, and other devices. Additionally, it can also monitor and control 3rd party devices using SNMP and execute Python scripts.

nControl supports RATC and PASHA protocols, allowing you to interact with an NWare project via an Ethernet or serial connection.

After nControl has been installed and given initial configuration settings, it is managed using NWare.

Notes:

• nControl units host projects for control and monitoring, but do not have any DSP capability.
• The available functionality is controlled using a USB hardware key. With this key, you can deploy projects containing devices from the nControl Devices section of the devices tree to the nControl. Without the key, you cannot use these devices in your project, but it can contain nTouch 60 devices.
• If you are using a hardware key issued prior to the 1.7.2 release, you will also need an activation key, which is a special code that you specify on the Hardware page of the web interface.
• Using all the capabilities of nControl requires a firm understanding of NWare, SNMP and Python scripting.
