Machine Control

Telnet

Telnet's text interface can also be used to interface with scripts or as least common denominator with control systems. It also the most features of all machine control interfaces.

SWP08

Pro-Bel SWP08 is used e.g. by VSM. It uses a network connection and controls the audio, MIDI and serial matrix.

MIDI

JSON

JSON uses HTTP to send and receive JavaScript objects that contain the device's status and configuration. It offers painless integration in web based setups.

Jupiter

Jupiter uses a RS422 connection to control the M.1k2 from a GrassValley video switcher controller.

SNMP

SNMP is a well used standard to monitor network devices. The implementation in the M.1k2 features status monitoring, reading and setting the configuration.
