WASP3D Automation Protocol lets devices to control the WASP3D sting Server (graphics playout). It is based on Unicode text based commands separated by a carriage return \r and newline character.



Automation Systems can connect to Wasp automation driver through TCP/IP. Encoding used for the automation is UTF 8 and commands are case insensitive while parameters are case sensitive.




Order of the parameter needs to be maintained. Since double quote is used as container for Name Value pair. In case the content contains double quote, it needs to be sent with escape character "\". Spaces other than mentioned below will automatically get truncated.




WASP3D Automation Protocol is fully configurable depending upon the client working environment. Automation can listen for commands from TCP/IP, UDP, Websocket and Namedpipes. This is configurable in the XML of the automation addin as per below parameters.
