Device Emulators
Pathfinder Core PRO can emulate other routing systems. This can be particularly useful if you need to interface
with an automation system that has not implemented any of the protocols that drive Axia routing systems. Clicking
on the Device Emulators link in the navigation bar will display the list of device emulators currently defined in the
system.
The following four columns are present on this page:
• Name: The name of the emulator.
• Type: The type of the emulator (Generic, Probel General Router, Probel General Switcher).
• Connection Type: The connection type to be used with the emulator which can either be TCP Client or
TCP Listener.
• Port: The TCP port to be used for the connection.
Click the plus icon to add a new emulator.
Pathfinder Core PRO currently supports three types of device emulation. Each emulator type may present slightly
different configuration options depending on the emulator type, and those configuration options are described below.
However, in each case you need to provide a name for the emulator, select the emulator type, and then define the
connection parameters.
