Stage Precision

SPNet

SPNet is a Stage Precision own protocol which can be used to communicate with other SP documents.

SPNet Setup

Is sender – When off the Stage Precision document will receive SPNet. When on the Stage Precision document will output SPNet.

Input

Name Description
Multicast Target IP This is where the IP address of the multicast can be entered.
Local Port This is the port that will receive data from other devices.
Multicast Connection When on, data can be sent to multiple recipients.
Interface This is the IP address of the local network interface which should be used for this connection.
Use in loopback When on the data will be looped back on the IP network.
Is Bound This will be on when the IO connection is bound to a network.
