APPENDIX E: DCP-XML REMOTE CONTROL
APPENDIX E. DCP-XML REMOTE CONTROL
DCP-XML permits remote control of 4Site II by a computer or other devices using the RS-232 serial port of 4Site II. To connect to this port,
use the serial cable (Black Box RJ-45-DB9 a standard RJ-45 CAT5 cable).
DCP is an XML-based protocol. (Device Control Protocol). Using DCP, all important settings of the 4Site II can be queried and changed.
A general description of XML can be found at http://www.w3.org/XML/
The XML scheme for DCP can be found on the enclosed CD, under the name “dcp.xsd.”
For a detailed description on how to use DCP-XML with 4Site II, see the “DCP-XML Manual” on CD supplied with 4Site II.
DCP Modes
DCP has two modes of operation:
1. Control: This mode is intended for direct control of a 4Site II, for example using a computer.
2. Synchronize: This mode is used to synchronize multiple, linked devices. In Synchronize mode, 4Site II sends all settings changes as
DCP messages. Thus, a chain of linked 4Site II can be controlled synchronously.
