It's complicated on why it has to happen this way and I'm limited to my own understanding.
?
Here the scoop, I have taken over someone else's proprietary code that's partially built in Simpl# on a CP3 that uses XML files to specify AV sources. There are custom S+ modules used in SIMPL that connect the SIMPL# controlled touchpanels to hardware AV sources. These original SIMPL programs and S+ modules can't be modified or compiled unless I use SIMPL v4.11. I'm having to replace the home audio source that used to be an Autonomic MMS. The Autonomic provided a TCP/IP server for the Smart Graphics Media Player to directly connect for transport control and meta data. The new audio source is a DM-NAX-8ZSA. The XML files on the Simpl# processor specify the IP address and port of the Autonomic to connect to the Smart Graphics Media Player. I'm not allowed to modify the touchpanels, but I can modify the XML files and original SIMPL Windows programming. I currently and using EIC to reroute source and volume control to a new 4 series processor that is controlling the DM-NAX-8XSA. I just want to be able to get the CRPC data from the NAX to a "server" that this SIMPL# code can talk to. Any help would be appreciated. I very much have learned my lesson of when proprietary template-style code is in use, plan on building it from scratch.
