receives the command, it will return required message. VISCA Reply It is sent from peripheral equipment (camera) to controller. ACK, which is the complete message, can be either reply or error reply. Command format: Note that LAN output is big-endian, and LSB is in the front. Payload type: data definitions are listed below: Name Value (Byte 0)

⚫ Controlled reply: The following data is saved in return command payload of control command. Delivery confirmation: VISCA over IP uses UDP as transmission communication protocol. UDP communication message transmission is not stable, it is necessary to confirm delivery and resent in application. Generally, when controller sends a command to peripheral equipment, controller will wait for the return message then send the next command, we can detect and confirm if the peripheral equipment receive the commands from its return message’s lag time.
