  • Label: Type the unique name of the active connection module that is added to the Active Outputs section.
  • Type: Click on this drop-down menu to select the type of data protocol being sent to the selected active module.
  • NIC: Click on this drop-down menu to select the local IP address where the output data is being sent through for the selected active module.
    • Notes:
      • When a project is opened in a server that is missing the saved NIC, BlackTrax will ask what NIC you would like to use for each output.
      • When BlackTrax detects an IP change in Windows, the Messages dialog box will alert you once to reboot BlackTrax to reload the settings.
  • Communication: Click on this drop-down menu to select the type of IP address in the connection, such as multicast, unicast or broadcast. The default output address corresponding to multicast and broadcast will be entered automatically according to the selected type.
    • Notes:
      • The default multicast output address for the selected output is entered automatically if Multicast is selected.
      • The broadcast output address will be based off the selected NIC for the output and entered automatically if Broadcast is selected.
      • The user must enter the unicast address if Unicast is selected.
      • Address and Port fields are editable per output, where applicable if user settings are specified instead of the defaults.
  • Address: The target IP address where the output data will be sent to.
  • Port: The port number where the IP address for the output data is connected to.
  • Apply: Click to apply the settings. 

Note: As a general rule, click Apply Changes to apply all changes that you set in Output Configuration.

    • Screen: In the Screen coordinate system, the Z (and -Z) axis is on the same plane as the X axis, and the Y axis refers to the upward direction.
  • Integer: Choose how integer data is sent. Click on this drop-down menu to change the network order of integer fields output in RTTrPM packets from Big Endian (Network Order) to Little Endian (Intel Order).
  • Float Point: Choose how the float variable value is defined. Click this drop-down menu and select Big Endian (Network Order) or Little Endian (Intel Order).
  • Orientation: Click on this drop-down menu to change the Beacon orientation to Euler or Quaternion coordinates.
