I have been working on integrating local LAN communication with Neptune Apex controllers in order to bring Trident test results and probe data into an external logging environment automatically rather than manually transcribing results after each test cycle.
Because Neptune does not expose a public cloud API for third party integrations, everything has to occur across the local network, which introduces a lot of variability depending on controller generation, firmware revision, wired vs wireless connections, and Energy Bar configuration.
On my own system this is working consistently, but before I finalize broader support for it I am trying to get a better sense of how different Apex environments behave when queried locally from another device on the network.
If you are currently running an Apex with a Trident, especially in a mixed wired or mesh network environment, I would be interested in comparing notes on:
Controller model
Firmware version
Network topology
Wired vs wireless base unit
Energy Bar mix
Any VLAN or guest network segmentation
Reply below if you are open to helping validate this across a few different Apex setups and I can follow up via DM.
As a small thank you for anyone who helps compare notes on their setup, I will send one participant from this round a custom Trident shell that I designed for my own system once this wraps up in a couple of weeks.
Appreciate any insight from fellow Apex users running different controller and network configurations.
