MAX-CSD: Streaming Commands (Port 1)

The streaming system on the MAX-CSE is located at Port 1 in NetLinx D:P:S nomenclature. The
MAX-CSE supports the following streaming commands.

MAX-CSE Streaming Send_Commands (Cont.)

Command

Description

SET VSOURCE
Set the source type needed
for the video stream.

Sets the current video source type for the outgoing (encoded) video stream.
Changing this source type redirects the video detection on the MAX unit’s rear
video ports.
Note: If both signal types are detected, the unit defaults to using the
Composite signal type unless otherwise specified via this command.
Syntax:

SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'SET VSOURCE <source>'"

Variable:

source = SVID (S-Video) or COMP (Composite).

Example:

SEND_COMMAND ENCODER,"'SET VSOURCE SVID'"

Switches the encoded video stream to take video from the S-Video port.

STOP
Stop transmission of both the
audio and video stream.

A stream can also be halted via the browser-based UI pages.
Syntax:

SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'STOP'"

Example:

SEND_COMMAND ENCODER,"'STOP'"

For programming purposes, do not use a hyphen when specifying MPEG
functionality. Use MPEG2 and MPEG4 (no dash), do not use MPEG-2 or MPEG-4.
In order for the SET commands (Set Video, Set URL, etc.) to take effect, any active
stream must first be halted using the STOP command. Once these commands are
executed, you can then the PLAY command to restart the stream.
The only exception to this procedure is the SET AUDIO, which while during a stream
can on the fly be toggled between Microphone and Line.
