6.4 Enabling Ethernet Broadcasts
To enable the Playback software and Client PC to broadcast data across a network for use with a
separate Electronic Charting System (ECS) or software, open the ‘Output’ menu dropdown and select
“Enable Ethernet Broadcast”. If a check appears adjacent to this option, broadcasting is currently
enabled. To disable this option, ensure no check sign appears adjacent to it.

The broadcast will occur on UDP Port 4450 and 4451. Refer to the relevant ECS manual to properly
enable a PC to receive an Ethernet broadcast from Rutter Technologies’ Playback software.
