Remote control documentation

Measmatic supports a wide range of remote commands that can be sent by clients to control Measmatic for automation purposes.

In order for a client to send commands and receive responses, the remote control option must be enabled in the Measmatic program settings. The default port for the remote control interface is 35000. This port can also be changed in the Measmatic program settings.

Sending commands

The commands must be sent as UTF8 encoded string over a TCP/IP connection to Measmatic. Termination character is line feed (\n). If a command requires a parameter, this must be separated from the command name by at least one space. If the command has several parameters, these must be separated by a comma.

Receiving responses

Responses from Measmatic are also strings encoded in UTF8 and have line feed (\n) as termination character. The structure of the response depends on the respective command.
