Companion Desktop - Windows v2.2.0 (Windows)

最后更新： 04月27日

Version 2.2.0 2026-04-27
Changes since 2.1.4

Warning

Martin Companion 2.2.0 does no longer support the legacy USB to DMX interfaces (M-DMX, Universal USB-DMX and USB Duo DMX).
Communication with fixtures is only supported via the Martin Companion Cable and RDM over Art-Net (using standard network port on computer).
Please note that it's highly recommended to connect the Companion Cable to the computer via a powered USB hub (or dock) during the cable firmware update procedure (only required when updating firmware of the cable itself, not when updating firmware of fixtures).
