Mode Lighting Ltd is part of the Mode Group of companies dedicated to the design and manufacture of electronic products principally for the lighting industry, including architectural dimming systems, electronic transformers for low voltage lighting, electronic convertors for neon and cold cathode lighting, colour-changing lighting and control systems and LED lighting systems.
Stardraw Control is a software-based application designed expressly to control systems that contain diverse products. It generates stand-alone, customized control programs that can manage and monitor any type of addressable equipment from any manufacturer using any protocol over any communications infrastructure. This approach frees systems integrators from closed or proprietary architectures and applications, offering instead the ability to create a single application that can control many different products with as much or as little complexity as the end user needs. Stardraw.com has now introduced a driver that will support all products that form part of Mode's Evolution lighting control system.
Mode Lighting's sales director, James King, described Stardraw Control as a flexible, customisable and manageable graphical front end application which can meet the diverse requirements of even the most demanding users whilst being able to offer absolute simplicity in its user interfacing.
Like other Stardraw applications, Stardraw Control is fast, powerful, flexible and easy to use; with a drag-drop interface and intuitive design environment, installers are able to configure systems and control them without having to write a single line of code, says the company. Generated control programs are portable and can run on any Windows-enabled device. Stardraw Control can communicate with and control any device using any protocol including TCP/IP, RS232, DMX, IR, EtherSound etc.
