Xilica announced the release of Xilica Designer 4.0 software, a drag-and-drop platform that simplifies the design, configuration and integration of Xilica DSPs and third-party AV systems.

Xilica Designer 4.0 software offers integrators a single, centralized platform for project design and management. Xilica Designer software provides optimized configuration of Xilica Solaro DSPs, as well as Xilica’s XWP networked wall controls, XTouch screens and I/O expansion devices. It also handles configuration and management of any networked Dante device and delivers comprehensive third-party control integration.

Xilica Designer 4.0 offers AV integrators more freedom to customize designs through Lua programming, a fast and powerful scripting language embedded within the software.

Other Xilica Designer 4.0 software enhancements include an improved DSP schematic design that expands support for drawing elements. New capabilities include native insertion of comments and labels, resulting in clean schematics that are easy to read. Xilica engineers have also accelerated device boot-up times by 30 percent through updated firmware.

The new software release retains Xilica Designer’s drag-and-drop functionality, which simplifies how users incorporate popular AV products and models into their designs. Xilica’s intuitive functionality eliminates the need to flip between numerous menus or re-input product codes. Users may also drag and drop any or all available control program settings for devices into Xilica Designer, simplifying control of devices such as projectors, screens and lighting systems.
