5.2.1.1.1.4 Rebroadcast MCOM
This function allows reprocessed MCOM files to be retransmitted over the Ethernet link using
the UDP protocol. This is used when the receiving application has the capability to decode the
MCOM data stream. Receiving applications generally have a designated port number that is
used to input the data and the Broadcast MCOM data on UDP port option allows this value to
be set to suit the application.
Figure 63: Retransmit MCOM over UDP
The IP Address to broadcast to is automatically detected by the application by scanning the
network connections of the host PC. If the host PC has more than one network connection
(multi-homed) you are able to select what network you are broadcasting to. Broadcasting to
IP address x.x.x.255 broadcasts to all IP addresses on the same network, so the pictured
example of 192.168.38.255 will broadcast to all IP addresses in the 192.168.38.x range.
NOTE: Processed iHeave data are included in the retransmitted MCOM signal in order
to facilitate the use of external logging software packages. Please refer to the section
on iHeave logging for more information.
NOTE: CodaOctopus publishes the MCOM format and it is freely available to third
parties to implement decode libraries in their applications. For further details on the
MCOM format please contact technical support.

has been reached.
