Worldwide Launch of Stardraw Control at NSCA

Software providers Stardraw.com are delighted to announce the formal launch of their latest application, Stardraw Control, at NSCA 2005. Previewed at PLASA in London, the application has already generated a huge amount of excitement amongst manufacturers and systems specialists who have welcomed Stardraws new approach to solving the problem of controlling heterogeneous systems.

Sample Control Program

Stardraw Control generates standalone, customized control programs that can manage any type of addressable equipment from any manufacturer over any communications infrastructure. Instead of being locked into closed architectures wherever system control, monitoring or signal routing has been required, Stardraw Control offers systems integrators an open, software-based, unified control framework that can manage the entire system with a single application, regardless of system complexity.

Like other Stardraw applications it 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. Utilization of Microsoft.net technology means that control programs are portable and can run on any Windows-enabled device, from PC to PDA, or Mac, Linux and more. Importantly, Stardraw Control can communicate with and control any device using any protocol. Since support of particular protocols can offer access to tens of thousands of products, Stardraw Control is almost infinitely flexible and scaleable. Protocols currently supported include IP, RS232, DMX, IR, EtherSound, CobraNET, infra-red, UDP, SNMP and QSControl.Net.

Stardraw Controls open architecture means that manufacturers can offer software control without the overhead of developing exclusive (and limited) software applications for individual products, and since Stardraw Control communicates with any existing device-specific Application Programming Interface (API), manufacturers can add support of their products without changing existing code or adding new hardware.

A unique commercial and distribution model means that Stardraw Control offers the most cost-effective solution to system control, and manufacturers and installers alike can derive revenue from its use.

According to Stardraw.com CEO David Snipp, With Stardraw Control we have developed an open system that is universally applicable. Manufacturers like it because it conforms to any standard or protocol they choose, and installers are excited because it breaks the constraints on product selection and application programming that you get with closed-architecture systems. This is a winner at every level.
