How to use

The Automation Control table is used to control and monitor the set-top boxes.

Before you send commands using the Send button in the Send Command column, make sure to enter a valid remote control command sequence in the Command Sequence field. If no command data is provided or if it is not provided in the correct JSON format, a pop-up message will be displayed.

The Check Motion/Audio button can be used to check if there is video and audio in the selected stream. Note that to capture correct video/audio detection data, the threshold and coordinate parameters need to be configured properly.

For some DataMiner versions, the Capture button in the Screen Grab column might not properly save the images in the designated folder.
