Docklight Scripting offers a set of advanced script methods for basic multichannel applications. It allows you to create up to 8 secondary data connections for sending and receiving data, in extension to the main Docklight communication channels.

 

The additional / secondary data connections are called side channels. They are controlled via the OpenSideChannel / CloseSideChannel methods. To transmit data on a side channel, the DirectSend method is used.
