B. IP Control Commands
1. Notice
This section is provided for informational purposes only, and should only be used by
software developers with a thorough understanding of the HTTP and JSON
specifications.
2. Introduction
The Multimedia 16x16 Matrix Switch can be controlled using basic IP commands.
These commands are based on the JSON format and are sent and received in standard
TCP/IP packets. To learn more about JSON, visit
http://www.json.org.
Only four types of JSON arrays are used to control the product:
Array of a single integer: [2]
Array of multiple integers: [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16]
Array of a single string: [“A Name”]
Array of multiple strings: [“Name 1”, “Name 2”, “Name 3”, “Name 4”]
Any other notation is not permitted. Also, “null” values are not permitted. Use 0
instead.
3. Basic Usage
All read and write operations are performed via HTTP GET and HTTP POST
commands, respectively. While you can perform a GET at any time, a POST
command will require prior authentication.
