AutoPatch announced the release of APControl 3—the latest version of AutoPatch’s free PC-based control software. Designed for use with all AutoPatch matrix switchers, APControl 3 features customizable views for executing and disconnecting switches, defining and executing macros, and scheduling tasks.

The event scheduler makes it simple to execute scheduled switches at any future date; events can be one-time or repeating on a specified interval. The floating programmable macro-button toolbar provides quick one-click recall of specific crosspoint configurations and commands.

“We are excited to provide APControl 3 as part of our signal distribution package," says Kyle Harris, software engineer lead of AutoPatch. "It is perfect for applications that require simple routing control, such as a sports bar, where the source and destination devices are left on. For example, the user can simply make switches from the PC behind the bar, and even schedule tasks based around major sporting events. AutoPatch places a strong focus on compatibility with all leading third-party control devices. This provides our piece of the total distribution solution when more elaborate control is required.”
