Wheatstone

Wheatstone WheatNet IP

Communicate with Wheatstone I/O Blades using TCP connection.

Configuration

• Target IP (required): IP address of the server to make a connection to.
• Target Port (required): Destination TCP port to make the connection to. (Default is TCP 55776)
• Heartbeat interval (in seconds): Interval in seconds to send keepalive messages to ensure the connection doesn't close. The Blade will timeout and close a TCP connection if it does not have any activity for more than 120 seconds. You should attempt to send the heartbeat more frequently than the 120 second timeout period. A 30 second heartbeat message would be a good target rate to implement.
• Log extra info during connection operations, for debugging purposes: Enable if you have Problems to reach out to the developer with a module log.

Each Blade supports up to 20 simultaneous TCP connections (10 on a PC driver) from client PCs or other network devices. The Blade acts as a TCP server for the connection. The PC acts as a TCP client for the connection. The Blade listens for TCP connections on port 55776. All remote computers will make a TCP connection to the Blades with this one TCP port number.

Available functions

Actions

• System: Set IFID, Set Subscription Rate
• UMIX Mixer: Ducking Level
• UMIX Input: ON/OFF, Balance, Duck, Ramp, Set Fader Output, Increment/Decrement Fader Output
• UMIX Output: ON/OFF, Set Master Fader, Increment/Decrement Master Fader
• LIO: Set Level
• SLIO: Set Level
• SALVO: Fire

Feedbacks

• UMIX Mixer: Master Fader ≥ value
• UMIX Input: ON, Ducking Active, Fader ≥ value
• UMIX Output: ON

Variables

All System and UMIX Parameters. System Variables are read only at connect, thus not updated. UMIX Variables get populated via subscriptions coming from feedbacks. -> If needed, this can be changed to read one or both at heartbeat timer. Let me know.

Presets

Limitations

• While setting up feedbacks it may happen that some feedbacks aren't working anymore. Try to restart the module.
• LIO & SLIO feedbacks not implemented (first need to implement subscribing and maybe parsing of available number of )
• MIC commands not implemented
• SRC / DST commands not implemented
