Hi Everyone!
I just wanted to send out a shameless plug ;) for an app that can be used as an alternative to the aRFR/ iRFR. The app doesn't contain as many features as the aRFR/ iRFR; however, it does have the ability to communicate several basic commands to your lighting console (i.e. Channel, Address, Go To Cue, Group, Park, Rem/Dim, Next/Last, etc.). So if you are just looking for something simple then this might be a good solution. The app utilizes the UDP string interface option that was added to version 1.9.5 of the software so you must be running this version or higher. Also, just like the aRFR/ iRFR, you must have a wireless access point within your lighting system in order for the app to work.
The app name is CUE 1. It is currently available for Android and iOS. (Are there any Windows Phone users out there? If there is enough interest, I will investigate porting the app over to the Windows Phone platform).

Anyways, I just wanted pass this along. Hopefully, this app will prove to be a useful tool for some as they continue on their lighting journey.
Thanks for checking out CUE 1.
