SECTION 17.6 NETWORK™ COMMANDS
The network i/o support in NewTek products is capable of sending and receiving
other types of data too, including control instructions and more. For example, one
form of information available to connected network devices is tally (on-air)
notification. Beyond this, though, the network connection system also provides the
ability to transmit commands between NewTek live production systems, as well as
other connected sources. This provides extremely powerful capabilities.
Note: There are other ways for external systems and software tp communicate with and
control NewTek live production systems. For example, control applications can also be
prepared using both TCP/IP and HTTP commands. The NewTek Developer Network
program provides members with SDKs detailing the various communication methods
available.
