HTTP Clients (HTTP Post and Put Message Sending)
DIFFERENCE:
This feature is available only in UMX-TPS-TX140K and TX140-Plus models from FW
package v1.5.0b4.
ATTENTION!
This feature means posting or putting
HTTP
messages from the Lightware device to another
device. Encrypted transmission (
HTTPS
) is not supported.
The HTTP Clients tab allows sending HTTP post and put messages to the desired server IP:port no. Control
commands can be set to the target device, but it is not suitable for processing the response (e.g. querying a
parameter/status) since the response is just an acknowledge (ACK).
