Among the many launches at ISE 2015 was a small product making big waves: the Enado™ Mini Web Server A/V Control System. 

Many good things come in small packages – such as DNA, Kylie Minogue, Kinder Surprise – so why should a control solution be any different? Following the launch of the WyreStorm Enado controller with multiplatform browser-based user interface is its bouncing baby brother.  Meet the Enado™ Mini Web Server A/V Control System – small, but powerful.

Based on the same hardware as the WyreStorm NetworkHD Controller, Enado Mini is a small form factor IP-only control system easily installed in any location; essentially a small computer system housing the full Enado software suite that acts as a powerful web server user interface for control of virtually any device with Ethernet connectivity by any device with a web browser.

As with Enado, the IP controller can sit anywhere on the network and control any IP device on the network with the web server-based control software eliminating the need for Apps, PC software windows drivers or control device configuration with no additional costs for Apps upgrades, updates or licenses, whilst delivering an App-like installer/user experience with systems configured and controlled from literally anywhere in the world with a web-capable device.

In fact, it’s so easy to configure a new control device such as a smartphone or tablet with Enado, the user need only to scan a QR code and bookmark the link.

Although it offers the same features as the 1U Enado controller, including POE and Ethernet, Enado Mini is streamlined by removing IR, RS232 and relay/cc connectivity, which help keep costs low enough so they have minimal impact on project budget.  However, it’s smart enough to allow connection of these outputs using iTach and Flex devices from Global Cache.

Enado Mini offers IP control of both NetworkHD JPEG2000 and new NetworkHD-PRO H.264 HD over IP systems as well as any connected WyreStorm matrix switchers, AV Receivers, Blu-ray players, set-top boxes such as SkyHD, TiVo, Virgin, Humax, media players like AppleTV, Roku, Sky Now, XBMC and Kaleidescape as well as games consoles and a growing number of Smart TVs, all over IP with no additional hardware required.

It’s also just as versatile as its bigger Enado sibling with full compatibility with the huge Enado online code library and custom control templates for these connected devices, with WyreStorm project examples and popular device templates built in for unlimited control of all WyreStorm distribution devices over IP while controlling all other sources with Global Cache for quick, simple configuration – all with just two cables to one tiny box.

Enado Mini: small, but perfectly formed.
