Controlling Hyperdeck from Brightsign player via TCP

Hi,

I am trying to control a Hyperdeck from a Brightsign media player via TCP.

I have a Brightsign plugin that should be sending the TCP command but I'm not getting any response from the Hyperdeck. The plugin requires that the message be in JSON format, and I am sending the following:

{"ip":"xx.xx.xx.xx", "port":"9993", "message": "play"}

I think one problem is I have to first open a connection to the deck, then send the command, and possibly add some sort of CR LF end of line character but I'm pretty much shooting in the dark here!

Does anyone have any experience sending commands to the Hyperdeck this way?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Perhaps take a look at this post on the BrightSign community forum from someone that seems to be attempting something similar:

Check the manual's section on controlling the deck via TCP. You do need to deal with lines in the commands.
