LumenRadio is today making CRMX SuperNova available for public download on the product site www.crmxnova.com. SuperNova is an RDM controller and management tool that is free to use with LumenRadio's CRMX Nova RDM products. SuperNova allows the user to visualise the entire lighting network, receive instant feedback from and communicate with RDM enabled devices, and easily set up and change anything from DMX addresses to transmitter frequencies. Click here for more information on all the functionality in CRMX SuperNova. The public release of CRMX SuperNova is done after thorough testing both internally and externally. To make sure both CRMX Nova RDM units and CRMX SuperNova were stable enough for use by professionals, the products were tested by an external lab to ensure full RDM compatibility and function. After a clean test report, the products are now openly available to order and download. The independent test report will be made available in the near future.

LumenRadio participated in PLDC (Professional Lighting Designer Convention) on the 29-31 of October. During the convention LumenRadio had ongoing live demonstrations of CRMX wireless light controls for lighting designers and manufacturers.
Many visitors were amazed by the previously unseen possibilities offered by CRMX in robust wireless light controls with instant feedback from connected fixtures. CRMX SuperNova especially raised some eyebrows by visualising the lighting network in realtime with interactivity. More than a few lighting designers wanted to specify CRMX for current projects, which we were happy to help them with.
LumenRadio would like to thank all those who visited our demonstration at PLDC. Next chance to see CRMX technology in action will be at LDI in Orlando on the 19-22 of November. We're at stand 1053 and you are more than welcome to visit us for a demonstration.

LumenRadio was today crowned "Best Newcomer of 2009" in Metro Tech Challenge. Metro Tech Challenge is a competition for technology startups organized by Swedish Incubators and Science Parks (SiSP) and the newspaper Metro Teknik.
The jury's motivation was that LumenRadio had in a very short time frame, and in an unusually mature manner, had gone from idea to global sales in less than a year. LumenRadio was a brilliant example of how technology companies can successfully establish themselves.
LumenRadio CEO Per Hulthén commented that receiving the award was very flattering. In recent months, LumenRadio has received numerous awards for releasing ground-breaking innovative technology and products, but this time the company was awarded for its business skills and rapid growth of the company.
