DEST

Syntax

DEST <a.b.c.d> or DEST NONE

Description

Sets the destination PC of the board: the PC that receives the data stream and the events. That PC becomes the board's owner (see Session and Ownership).

• DEST <a.b.c.d> makes the given address the owner. If another PC was the owner, it receives EVT dest taken. A running acquisition or Studio program is not interrupted.
• DEST NONE releases the board: acquisition and programs keep running, but nothing is streamed and no event is sent until a new destination is set.

Replies to commands never depend on DEST: they always go back to the sender.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
<a.b.c.d>	IPv4 address of the PC that should receive the stream and the events.
NONE	No destination.

Response

OK DEST dest=<a.b.c.d>
OK DEST dest=none

Errors

Reply	Condition
ERR DEST bad_arg	Missing or invalid address.

Example

dest.py

board = Board("192.168.1.11")
print(board.request("DEST 192.168.1.50"))     # {'dest': '192.168.1.50'}
