7 Hilo Remote Control Application
Hilo Remote is a software application that allows users to conveniently control the Hilo, change settings, and view its different meter
options, from their computer. Settings on the Hilo display and in the Hilo Remote software will be identical in all regards, except for
scene storage. Different scenes can be saved in the computer that hosts the Hilo Remote app, and on the Hilo itself. The Hilo Remote
app is available for Macintosh OSX or Windows computer, and there is also a version available for Apple iPad that can be
downloaded from iPad App Store (keywords Lynx Hilo).
In addition to running the Hilo Remote on the computer that the Hilo is connected to, it is possible to use Hilo remote from a computer
or iPad that is connected to the host computer via WiFi or WLAN. This use requires the Lynx Redirector tool. We will explore that
solution, later in this section.
Please note that the new Master volume control function is not reflected in the current Hilo Remote app. We intend to include those
features in a future update.
