UDP Device

UDPDevices can be used to send commands over a network via UDP to 3rd party products.

UDPDevices are used by the Control Layer and the MatrixControl layer

Creating a UDPDevice

A UDPDevice is created in the same way as any other device type. Please see the earlier sub-chapter Creating devices for step-by-step instructions on how to create a device, and select UDPDevice from the menu of different device types. This will open the UDPDevice editor (explained below).
