SCOM Protocol
Foreword
The Lauer SCOM Protocol is designed for remote control of Lauer Navigation
Monitors over different kind of interfaces. It is based on the SCOM Protocol, which
allows easy replacement of existing units. Besides the standard command set, the
Lauer SCOM Protocol includes a rich set of special purpose commands for extended
remote controlling options. The SCOM Protocol is extended with these special fea-
tures, without affecting the compatibility.
Some of the major extensions are:
• Ethernet support by encapsulating the SCOM protocol within UDP packets.
• Special purpose command set available with the new SCOM command “LAU”.
• Extended address field functionality, which enables monitor grouping, allowing a
total count of 240 monitors in a network (15 groups, 16 monitors in each group).
