Ten documents that are part of BSR E1.30-200x, Application
level equipment interoperability for control of commonly
encountered entertainment technology devices using ANSI E1.17, are posted
on the ESTA website at www.esta.org/tsp/documents/public_review_docs.php for
review through August 25. The draft documents add to the functionality
of ANSI E1.17, ACN, by specifying how to do common tasks in
ACN. The ten draft documents are:
BSR E1.30-1-200x, EPI 23, Device Identification Subdevice,
which specifies a templated device for device identification
as typically used for remote hardware and software devices.
BSR E1.30-2-200x, EPI 24, Internet Protocol Properties
Subdevice specifies two template devices, each describing
a block of properties used for supplying information on and
configuring the Internet Protocol (IP) configuration of a device
using DMP. These devices may typically be used for remote hardware
or software devices to allow configuration over the network.
BSR E1.30-3-200x, EPI 25, Time Reference in ACN Systems
Using SNTP and NTP specifies restrictions and guidelines
for establishin a common time reference across components within
an ACN system using SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) and
optionally NTP (Network Time Protocol). This EPI does not define
a control synchronization model.
BSR E1.30-4-200x, EPI 26, Device Description Language
(DDL) Extensions for DMX512 and E1.31 Devices defines
protocol specific extensions to Device Description Language
for describing DMX512-type devices.
BSR E1.30-5-200x, EPI 27, Operation of SDT on Wireless
Networks outlines issues with SDT usage over wireless
networks, specifically 802.11g. It proposes changes to EPI
18 constants and speculates on 802.11n.
BSR E1.30-6-200x, EPI 28, Independent Device Location
Properties specifies a non-templated device for Independent
Device Location properties as typically used for remote hardware
and software devices.
BSR E1.30-7-200x, EPI 29, Allocation of Internet
Protocol Version 4 Addresses to ACN Hosts obsoletes
ACN EPI 13 (Allocation of Internet Protocol Version 4 Addresses
to ACN Hosts). The principal reason for this revision is to
allow assignment of static IP addresses and provide guidance
for how to manage systems using these methods.
BSR E1.30-8-200x, EPI 30, Time Code Properties specifies
a non-templated device for Time Code properties as typically
used for remote hardware and software devices.
BSR E1.30-9-200x, EPI 31, MIDI System Exclusive Properties specifies
a non-templated device for MIDI System Exclusive properties
as typically used for remote hardware and software devices.
BSR E1.30-10-200x, EPI 32, Identification of Draft
Device Description Language Modules specifies how
draft DDL modules that may be changed frequently during
development shall be marked as experimental.
