Using a Stream Deck with WheatNet-IP
The Elgato Stream Deck product is a great way to set up a few buttons to accomplish tasks in WheatNet-IP. It doesn't work natively with WheatNet-IP systems, but it can be used with a free Plugin called "CommandSender." The plugin is available from the Elgato Marketplace.
Command Sender allows you to set Stream Deck buttons to send commands to a pre-set IP address and port via either TCP or UDP. This allows it to be used in your WheatNet-IP system.
The TCP command set available for WheatNet-IP systems is called the Wheatstone ACI (Automation Control Interface). It is proprietary and requires the signing of a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) in order to procure. If you are interested, please send a request to
techsupport@wheatstone.com and include your company name and/or call letters as well as mailing address and other contact info, and a few details about your intended use of the ACI. We will forward your request to the right department to start the process.
