UDP Server (Arduino listener) is required to setup in order to enable communication (send-receive data) with Arduino devices over LAN(local wired of WiFi network) or Internet.


What is UDP Server?

- UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a type of network communications protocol, here used to communicate, send commands from ACC UDP Server to Arduino clients, receive data from Arduino clients to ACC UDP Server.

If you want to know more about this protocol, there is a plenty resources on Internet.


It is easy to setup and start UDP Server.

Main menu -> Server -> Settings tab


Go to Settings tab


That's it! You are ready to receive data from Arduino boards. BUT, first we will expand our example with Arduino network shield, in our case Wiz5100 Ethernet shield:


Setup and update firmware to support this shield and enable network communication with Arduino device(Test UNO from example) is a subject of Wiz5100 Ethernet shield and ACC topic.


I recommend you, if you are not already did that, first to setup device Arduino Uno described in Setup Device in ArduinoControlCenter topic, and then attach Ethernet shield and continue with Wiz5100 Ethernet shield and ACC topic.
