UDP data (6.2)
UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a communications protocol where messages are
exchanged between computers in a network that uses the Internet Protocol (IP). UDP is an
alternative to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and, together with IP, is sometimes
referred to as UDP/IP.
In Congo UDP allows you to use the Ethernet network to:
• Receive Congo specific Action Macros directly from another unit, without having to
first create a trigger and event.
• Send any proprietary string of data to another unit that can receive commands over
UDP
Receiving Action Macros over UDP
For Congo to receive Action Macros you need to set a receive port in the
Play Settings -
Show Control (Browser >General Settings >Play Settings) and make sure that the incoming
Action Macro text strings are written by the rules for Congo Action Macros explained in that
chapter. An incoming Action Macro is processed the instant it is received.
Sending UDP Strings
For Congo to send Action Macros a send port and IP address have to be set up in the
Play
Settings - Show Control (Browser >General Settings >Play Settings) and the the text string
you send needs to be written according to the specifications of the receiving device.
