SCOPE
This document applies to the Windows version of Pathfinder Server. It covers both the Pro and non-Pro versions of Pathfinder Server.
DESCRIPTION
Many devices can send and receive strings of text. These devices could include automation systems, BetaBrite style scrolling text signs, remote control systems, etc. Nearly anything that can send or receive text can control or be controlled by Pathfinder using SAPort Router.
We will not cover any specific systems set up here other than the creation of the how to create a loopback on SAPort Router. You will need Putty or some program that monitors ports
SETTING UP SAPort Router to monitoring incoming messages.
We will need a create a TCPServer that we can open a port locally on the machine. In this example its called TCPTester8000
Then we are going to open putty and listen to whats being monitored on this port.
Since the device at the far end is already logged holding the original port, even if we open putty to that port we wouldn't see anything. For now we will have to route the incoming port to this TCPTester8000.
