  • 1.  Trackman Data to Xpression

    Posted 04-02-2025 09:45

    Hi All!

    Our baseball team wants us to use their Trackman speed radar for our videoboard, our Xpression and the Trackman live in different venues. I've been trying to get the two connected, I'm able to ping the tracker from our baseball computer, but am lost on how to actually ingest anything into datalinq. I saw on an older post here that there really wasn't a solution on how to get the data over. 

    I've tried a JSON datalinq, ASCII datalinq and tried to get the data from their dashboard as an HTTP dataling with no success.

    Thank you for all help and suggestions!

    I know you aren't ESPN but maybe there may be something in here that could help.  Maybe a firewall issue?

    There's also an article on how we commonly set this up, if you can ping the tracker and port 20999 is free it should work. If port 20999 is blocked on the system or firewall, that's likely the issue as Michael mentioned

    Hey Alexa! If you're on the same subnet as your Trackman, you can just use the XML/JSON TCP datalinq, set it to UDP, and listen to port 20998. Crucially, you have to be on the same network/have it set up so that traffic can pass through. Other things of note: I think a game or practice has to be started, and pitches have to be above 55mph. (Don't ask how I know that)

    HI ZAACH!

    So the option I have for the XML/JSON TCP datalinq doesn't have an option to change it to UDP, is that an update on datalinq?

    Oh yes, I think that's somewhere between 10.5 and 11.0. Tech Support should be able to help you get the right version!
