Software to control GC-100 units without programming

MAINLOBBY2

Convergence. It's a big word that you've probably heard at least once in the past few months. But it's nothing new to Cinemar. We started our convergence over 4 years ago when we began developing MainLobby and made it acceptable to utilize Windows compatible computers for automation and media management in the home and boardroom.

MainLobby has been paving the way and is a leader in this market for both integrators and Do-It-Yourselfers. We realize that not everyone is a programmer or a graphic designer. So we've taken the complexity out and made a drag and drop environment for controlling everything from irrigation systems and dvd changers to whole house audio controllers. In it's simplest form, you can think of MainLobby as an Operating System. And all the other modules are sub programs that run within MainLobby. You can customize your own scene designs quickly and easily or start with one of the many predesigned scenes. With access to over 300 graphics, it's not hard to create appealing interfaces end users will love.

Our client/server architecture ensures access from anywhere on your network. For power and control, MainLobby includes a license to MLServer. MLServer is the phone line that allows up to 10 simultaneous MainLobby clients (additional clients available) to control enabled hardware and software plugins. Send IR/Serial commands via the Global Cache from distributed MainLobby clients.

Add a wireless web tablet and control your home or theater from the comfort of your recliner. With an advanced setup, users can hit one button and have all components turn-on and configure lighting to the proper level. The only limit is your imagination.
