8. Advanced Features
In this chapter we provide additional information on some of the neoVI ION’s new and advanced features.
Note that some of these features are not yet currently implemented in the neoVI ION, but their capabilities will be provided in future firmware upgrades, at which time this manual will be updated to explain their use.
8.1. neoVI API
The neoVI ION comes with support for a full API that allows you to control the device from other software packages or custom-written software. For instructions on using the API, please consult its documentation on the Intrepid website at: https://docs.intrepidcs.com/neovi-api
8.2. USB Host
The neoVI ION comes with a USB host port that allows other devices to be plugged into it (see Figure 6 in Section 3.3). Due to the difficulties associated with driver development, this port is intended for specific devices rather than general purpose use. It is especially designed to work with devices such as the Intrepid neoVI MIC microphone/trigger pendant, or the RAD- Moon (as seen in Section 6.3).
