SPC Bridge (generic)
Secure and reliable
All communication between the SPC panel and the Bridge is encrypted and occurs on your local network. No cloud service is involved. Vanderbilt's official protocol FlexC is used. The SPC panel settings determine what can be controlled and monitored.
API test tool
The API test tool is a very useful tool for testing and troubleshooting the Bridge's REST/Websockets API. The tool is also very helpful for integrators who want to learn the API. The tool has three sections:
- Request. Here, you “build” and send an API request.
- Reply. Displays the response from the API on a request.
- Events. Displays real-time events from the API.
REST/Websockets API
The REST API provides access to the SPC panel resources via HTTPs requests. The API uses JSON as its communication format, and the standard HTTP methods GET, for requesting status, and PUT.for sending commands to the SPC panel
The WebSocket interface broadcasts events from the SPC panel to “subscribing” clients in real time. The Bridge is completely transparent and forwards all event types sent from the panel. However, it is configurable in the SPC panel which event types should be reported.
API specification is provided on request
