Data Stream Manager - NetComm NTC-6000 Series User Manual

Data stream manager

The data stream manager provides you with the ability to create mappings between two endpoints on the router. These endpoints
may be physical or virtual, for example, the built-in serial port could be configured as an endpoint or you could configure a TCP
Server as an endpoint. You can then configure a virtual data tunnel or "stream" between the endpoints.
The data stream manager provides a wide range of possibilities and expands upon simple PAD functionality to include the
forwarding and translation of data between any of the endpoints. For example, you could send the GPS data received by the
module (in NMEA format) through a serial port (by means of a USB-to-Serial cable). In each case, the logical flow of data is from
Endpoint A to Endpoint B.
Customers interested in developing their own applications to create custom endpoints and streams can contact NetComm Wireless
about our Software Development Kit.
Endpoints
The first thing to be done in order to create a data stream is to define the endpoints. There are 6 types of endpoint that may be
configured:
Serial port (generic)
TCP Server
TCP Client
UDP Server
UDP Client
GPS Data (for devices with GPS receiver)
