port-connect
port-connect
<type>
For use by external devices, such as a charging station or other appliance. The sender wishes to connect a cable to a port of the indicated type (see port). The controller will respond with one of two messages:
- If it responds with port
<type>
<key>
, then the accessor should re-send the port-connect query to<key>
, which is the actual port host responsible for managing connections. This occurs most often if the host can handle many simultaneous connections of the same type.
- If it responds with port-real
<type>
<key>
, then the accessor should accept the key provided as the particle destination and begin effects as appropriate.
