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. MainLobby
Server 3 (MLServer 3)
is the phone line that allows
up to five MainLobby clients
(additional clients available)
to control enabled hardware
and software plugins. Send
IR/Serial commands via the
Global
Cache from distributed
MainLobby clients.
Brand new with MainLobby
Server 3 is full automation
capability including timed
/ reoccurring / conditional
and on-event control capability.
Turn your lights on 10 minutes
before sunset. Send a command
to shut your spinkler zone
off when someone is walking
up the driveway (additional
hardware / software required).
The list is huge on what
you can now do with the
MainLobby 3 Suite!
Add a wireless UMPC
Tablet and control your
home or theater from the
comfort of your recliner.
Users can hit one button
and have all components
turn-on and configure lighting
to the proper level. The
only limit is your imagination.
