From within the Settings Menu, Integrations Tab, you can choose to interact with different com devices. These devices can be used to receive or send commands.
| Serial Port | Dropdown box to select the Com Port to listen for commands on. |
| Enabled | Opens or closes the Com Port for commands to be sent and received. |
| Device | Choose the serial device you will be communicating with. |
| Send Carriage Return | Sends a carriage return at the end of each command sent. Some devices such as the Barix hardware need this to be checked so they know where a command stops. |
| Replace Characters | When checked, the replace parameters will become active |
| Characters To Replace | Type the characters to replace in this box. This is useful when you are receiving commands from two identical hardware boxes. Both boxes may send a command of SOP A,1,1,1,1 however you want to trigger different PlayoutONE commands for each different box. |
| Characters To Replace With | In the example above, we can replace SOP A with SOP B so that we can identify commands coming from each box and act upon them accordingly. |
