Remarks

Device driver software

This filter is intended to cooperate with a Gocator device running GoPxL firmware. It is not required to install any additional software to connect to the device.

Device identification

When there is only one device connected, the field inAddress can be set to Auto. In this situation, the first available device will be used.

inAddress can be used to pick one of multiple devices connected to the computer. inAddress can be set to:

  • IP Address - GoPxL Device identifying IP address (e.g. "127.0.0.1" or "127.0.0.1:3600")
  • Serial Number - GoPxL Device serial number with "SN:" prefix (e.g. "SN:17335")
Gocator Protocol data source ID

When the field inSourceID is set to Auto, all data sources of a specific type would be processed by this filter. To process only one, chosen data source, set the value of this field to an appropriate ID. Data source IDs can be found in the GoPxL web interface, under Control/Gocator tab.

This filter is available on Basic Complexity Level.
