Communication
A control device communicates with a Kaleidescape System using a simple
text-based protocol over Ethernet or RS-232, or IR. Although connected to a
single component, a control device can route messages to any
Kaleidescape component using device ID numbers or serial numbers. IR
control cannot be routed like serial and Ethernet commands.
Control devices can use three types of control interfaces.
0 Ethernet
0 RS-232
0 IR (one-way communication)
