The Control Panel app (CPA) allows the exchange of control data and status information via NMOS and supports NMOS IS-04, IS-05 and IS-07. It enables the sending of control commands of the hybrid lever keys and their rotary encoders, as well as the receiving of control commands for LED rings and displays including text, icons and color.
