ETC has released version 4.3 of the control software for the Congo and Congo jr lighting control consoles. This software update is mainly designed to provide system features such as multi-user operation and support for streaming ACN, the new lightweight single-direction protocol used to transmit whole DMX universes over Ethernet. Many other smaller improvements have also been made.

The update also allows Congo Offline Editor and Congo Client PC to run in a standard Windows frame. This makes it possible for the application to run on lower spec computers.

The software and release notes - which give full details of what has been improved - can be found www.etcconnect.com/downloads.asp
