An introduction to RATC

RATC, or Remote Access Terminal Control, is a command-line based protocol that allows a remote client program to set and get the control values in a compiled View File in MediaMatrix. The remote client communicates with MediaMatrix via a TCP network connection, so RATC is compatible with both local area networks and the Internet. Any number of RATC clients (within reason) may connect simultaneously to MediaMatrix. The RATC service is configured and enabled through the MediaMatrix user interface.

See Configuring RATC for details on setting up RATC for MediaMatrix. See Control Grouping for details on exporting View File controls to remote clients such as RATC. See the Account Properties Dialog Box section for configuring MediaMatrix user accounts to have access to external control through RATC. See your network administrator for details on configuring MediaMatrix computers for network access. See Niagara Falls on your next vacation.
