Channel

Like presets, you can assign a Channel number for each “Listen”
configuration. This allows you to easily recall up to 99 Channels
of Listen Address & Port combinations.

Listen Address

The IP address that the multicast client will listen on. The value
must be a Class D multicast address, which will typical start with
224.xxx.xxx.xxx.
Because some addresses may be reserved (see below), consult your
networking specialist for assistance.

- 224.0.0.0/24 is reserved by RFC.

- 224.0.1.0/24 is used by specific applications (NTP).

Listen Port

The port address that the multicast client will listen on.

Transfer Order

Allows the option to choose the order in which items are
transferred: package mode (see page 109 for details) or script last
mode (see page 110 details).

Multicasting is an optional feature enabled by a software upgrade.

If your Firefly does not have the Multicasting feature (menu items are
“grayed out”) and you would like to purchase it, contact a Visual Circuits
representative at 1-800-250-5533.
