Full 2-Way TCP API
Planned
We are wanting to integrate with a Savant control system which supports a synchronous TCP communication, but does not have a HTTP server running on it so we are not able to use the rules engine to send events to the Savant system at present.
Savant is a home automation system and an example use case would be to trigger lights to come on, gates to open etc when a camera detects a person walking across a trip line in a certain direction etc.
We would want a 2-way TCP API which allows us to send commands into NX-Witness and also for NX-Witness to communicate across the same connection to the control system.

Hi Liam Parker,
I don't know anything about Savant Control Systems, but based on this job application, it seems there is some sort of REST API. And if that is the case, you should be able to communicate with the system. To be honest, I would be surprised if there are such systems without REST API. Otherwise, it will hard to create your own integrations and with Home Automation, in general, you don't want to be dependent on 3rd party integrations.
In Nx Witness, you can send an HTTP request and receive Generic Events.
