## What is GMA WebRemote?

This tool provides a smarter way of using grandMA2 console's integrated web remote.

The main advantage is the discovery of grandMA2 devices connected to the network - so you do not have to remember IP addresses.
It also keeps the the mobile device awake so the connection does not get inerrupted by activating sleep/standby mode after some time.

FEATURES:
- Device discovery: See all active MANet2 devices (for instant connection)
- Always-On mode: Prevents your device from going to sleep mode while the app is opened
- AutoConnect on launch: Automatically connect to last IP on launch (*)
- AutoLogin on connect: Automatically log in with your predefined username/password (*)
- Colorize by IP: Colorize devices by last byte of IP address (*)

FREE VERSION:
The free version can always be used with a basic feature set.

FULL VERSION (*):
The full version unlocks settings and some extra features.
And most important: Supports the development :-)

IMPORTANT INFORMATIONS:
A fast WiFi connection without multicast filtering is required for discovery!
This app "wire-tap's" the grandMA2 network session, so there is always a small risk of losing discovery functionality with new software versions.
This is NOT an official app from MA Lighting Technology or MA Lighting International.

This app is very helpful for remote focus. It's clean and gives me a great view of all stations in session. Well worth the price of admission.

A very good and useful app if you have a MA system at your workplace, easy to use and feels more responsive than the actual web browser remote
