What is VISCA over IP?
VISCA commands are the communication between the controller and the camera. These commands
are sent via UDP on the network. Since UDP transmission isn't that stable, a couple of steps must
happen before a movement is executed. The controller first sends out a VISCA command. The camera
equipment then receives the VISCA command and returns that message back to the controller. 0ncethe
commands are executed, the action will follow suit and the message will be complete. Each VISCA
command controls its own setting, so there are no overlaps in existing commands.
