SUbSCRIPTION

Receiving System Status

StreamNet Subscription allows third party controllers to receive unsolicited status messages from StreamNet
services. During configuration, the Integrator may subscribe to a StreamNet Service’s status message by
entering the controller’s IP address and the port to which the status messages are to be sent.
If a subscription exists, the StreamNet service will send status messages over UDP protocol to the specified
IP address and port number.
A static subscription is configured using the

StreamNet Dealer Setup Program and is automatically in

effect as soon as the device powers up and remains in effect indefinitely. The user should use the

StreamNet

Dealer Setup Program to specify an IP address and port number to which status reports are to be sent.
This IP Address is typically the static IP address of the 3rd Party Controller device. If the device receiving the
status messages is capable of receiving multicast UDP messages, then an unused multicast address may be
specified for the subscription. Using a multicast address eliminates the need for the controller to have a static
IP Address and also eliminates any subnet related issues.
During configuration, the integrator may enter “subscriptions” to a StreamNet service’s status messages
by entering the IP address and port to where the status messages are to be sent. If a subscription exists
the StreamNet service will send status messages over UDP protocol to the specified IP address and port
number.
The StreamNet system multicast address should not be used by the controller to receive responses or status.
When Controllers “Subscribe” either the controller’s unicast address or an unused multicast address should
be used.
