Quick question about using a network switch with a redundant setup. Would this switch need to be isolated to ableset connections, or would I be able to use the same switch to additionally network other devices together?

You can use these OSC commands to control the AbleSet web app in the browser.If you'd like a command to run on all devices, pass all as the first parameter.Otherwise, set the first parameter to either the IP address or host name of thedevice you'd like to control. The host name is case-insensitive. Multiple devicescan be passed separated by commas.

These OSC commands display a notification on one or more devices. If you'd likethe notification to be displayed on all devices, pass all as the first parameter.Otherwise, set the first parameter to either the IP address or host name of thedevice you'd like to control. The host name is case-insensitive. Multiple devicescan be passed separated by commas.

If you're using OSC commands in a setup with multiple computers connected via AbleNet,AbleSet automatically forwards commands to all other connected computers. For additionalredundancy, you should send the same command to all computers.

For this to work well, each command you send to AbleSet via OSC should have its ownUUID. You can append it as a string parameter to any OSC command, for exampleuuid=1234abcd where "1234abcd" is a random string for each command.

If you're writing your own OSC client, you can use any Bonjour library to lookfor _osc._udp. on the network. AbleSet's OSC server has a TXT value ofserver=ableset, so in case there are other applications announcing their OSCservers on the network as well, you can look for that value to find AbleSet.

You'll see a notification that the device has been connected, and from thispoint on, AbleSet will send updates for all events to your server. You canregister multiple servers with AbleSet if you want to connect multiple controlsurfaces.

In addition to the events, AbleSet will send a /heartbeat every 2 seconds. Youcan use this to check if the connection is still up. If you'd like to trigger aheartbeat yourself, you can send a /getHeartbeat command to AbleSet.
