Stage Precision

UDP

User datagram protocol is a low-latency protocol, smaller data packets are sent and no response message is relayed back to the sender.

This protocol is node-based, this worked with input and output messages within the board.

UDP Setup

Protocol

Name Description
Protocol Type
  • Raw – This is data that has not been processed.
  • Lines – This sends data over a transmission line that will not overlap.
  • Data255 -
  • COBS – (Consistent Overhead Byte Stuffing) This is an encoding type that creates efficient data packages.

Input

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

Output

Name Description
Remote Host This is where the target IP address of the host can be input.
Remote Port This is the port that the data package will be sent to.
Interface This is the IP address of the local network interface (NIC) which should be used for this connection.
Is Connected When this is on it means Stage Precision is able to output data.
