There are two types of Devices you can create in the device tab: Ethernet devices and SNMP devices.

1. Ethernet Device

   

   An Ethernet device requires the IP address of the device and its port number in order to communicate with the JNIOR.

2. SNMP Device

   

   An SNMP device requires the IP address of YOUR computer, the UDP port being used, and the Community Name to communicate with the JNIOR.

3. Serial Device

   

   When adding a Serial device a warning will pop up. This is to inform you that only one application can have control of a serial port at a time. It also provides a link to the JNIOR Web Pages to configure your serial port settings.

   

   A Serial device only requires you select which port you want to use to communicate serially.

4. OSC Device

   

   An OSC device requires the IP address of OSC device, the OSC device port being used, and if the connection will use TCP or UDP. Upon first glance, you may notice this device's requirements are identical to an Ethernet Device. Keep in mind though that OSC uses a specific protocol to communicate and wouldn't work if setup like a normal raw etherent connection.

5. OSC Server

   

   An OSC Server requires a port number that an OSC device will connect on, and if the connection will use TCP or UDP. This server can listen for commands to execute tasks in its workspace. When sending to this server, using /task/execute/ for the address and a task name in the workspace as data will execute that task. The difference between an OSC Server device and an OSC device is that an OSC Server is defined for LISTENING for data, and an OSC Device is defined to SENDs data.
