Classic MediaMatrix supported RATC v0.9 on TCP/IP connections. NION and nControl support the newer and more flexible protocol, RATC v2, which can run on either a TCP/IP connection or a serial connection. We refer to the two versions of RATC as RATC1 and RATC2.
For backward compatibility, NION and nControl support RATC v1, which is compatible with MediaMatrix's RATC v0.9. NION also features a version of PASHA that is compatible with the service of the same name on Classic MediaMatrix.
Note: PASHA is not currently available on nControl units.
It is recommended that RATC v2 over TCP/IP be used whenever possible.
One difference between NION and nControl external control and Classic MediaMatrix external control is that in NION and nControl systems, the external control services only run while the NWare project is running. This is a little different than Classic MediaMatrix, where the control services run whenever the MWare application is running, independent of whether a View file is compiled and running.
