Supported Protocols

Automatic dependent surveillance – broadcast (ADS–B) provides a method for tracking aircraft via satellite navigation. The aircraft periodically broadcasts its location via the ADS-B protocol to other aircraft as well as ground stations. Limelight XE's ADS-B driver provides support for receivers that utilize either GDL-90 (Garmin) or Mode-S Beast (Jetvision) protocol formats (via TCP or UDP transport).

Modbus TCP is a version of the popular protocol for Ethernet. Modbus is a standard industrial control protocol often used for monitoring and controlling PLC based systems.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Internet Standard protocol for collecting and organizing information about managed devices on IP networks and for modifying device settings and behavior. This includes all types of networking equipment as well as industrial automation devices such as relays. The Limelight XE SNMP driver directly supports this protocol and provides real-time monitoring and traps for monitoring or controlling networked devices.
