PBP accepts TCP and UDP connections, if you have a look at the PBP manual it will tell you the commands for your version.
As an example once you open a connection:
TCPSend,1,GO1 will load clip #1 into preview in to the playbackpro connected at tcp1. TCPSend,5,TA will hit the take button on playbackpro connected at tcp5.
There may be other or better ways, but this works, good luck.
Hi, the command 'TCPSend,ID,Message" will send a TCP Message to the called connection ID. This ID is configured in WD Tools Menu "Connetion Manager". You only can send Messages to TCP devices which are connected. http://www.coolux.de/root/downloads/sup ... dconnm.htm cheers Thomas
Eric, thanks for the post... There was the one question I was looking for that I didnt understand. I do understand the command string, but where I am failing is the TCP5 connection. You say, "...if your PBP is TCP5..." how do I find this info?
sorry for being so blind to this aspect of the networking.
