Lightware has launched a plug-and-play button that enables straightforward \u2018press-to-action\u2019 commands in AV installations<\/p>\n

The GPIO-Button-10S can be connected to any Lightware device equipped with GPIO ports and used as an input to trigger pre-defined control actions.<\/p>\n

Up to two GPIO buttons can be connected to a six-GPIO Lightware device, such as units from the Taurus or MMX2 range. Each button uses one GPIO channel for the button press and two GPIO channels to drive the feedback LED, providing clear visual confirmation of activation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The LEDs can display red, green or blue in three selectable light patterns \u2013 continuous, slow blink, or fast blink. This enables integrators to provide clear status feedback in any environment.<\/p>\n

Once installed, the buttons can be configured using Lightware\u2019s LARA or Event Manager software. Single, double or long presses can be programmed to trigger distinct actions or sequences.<\/p>\n

In a lecture hall, for example, a single press can start the projector, switch audio to the lecturer mic and activate pre-set lighting, without the need for a software menu.<\/p>\n

The button also enhances manual control in BYOD and Microsoft Teams Room set-ups, allowing users to switch inputs, trigger room pre-sets or mute and unmute devices with a single press.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Its pre-terminated 2.5\u202fm pigtail, meanwhile, facilitates quick and reliable integration into AV systems.<\/p>\n

Lightware chief executive Gergely Vida said: \u201cWe designed the GPIO button to address a key gap in hardware control interfaces, by providing low-latency, tactile command execution with minimal configuration.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is the ideal companion for workflows that demand simplicity and precision.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lightware has launched a plug-and-play button that enables straightforward \u2018press-to-action\u2019 commands in AV installations The GPIO-Button-10S can be…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":492818,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[61,60,80],"class_list":["post-492817","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/492817","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=492817"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/492817\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/492818"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=492817"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=492817"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=492817"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
