Several options are available

- Request the JSON data at
serverIP:20000
→ If you can get the data, the machine and the app are running
Create a websocket connection
- Create a Websocket output
- Connect with your monitoring app to the websocket server
→ As long as the connection is alive, the machine and the app are running
Send an OSC address request
- Send /ping to the
serverIP:20000
