The firmware within the NetMuxController is currently being updated to move away from using serial emulation over USB to communicating using a lower level access to the USB and a custom protocol. This custom protocol is defined in SpiderUSBProtocol.

== 2011/2012 Replacement ==
With the rebuild of the videoserver in 2011, it was yet again time to change automation system. As the Network Audio Mux no-longer existed, this part of the system was axed. Audio switching would become balanced, via DB-25 to XLR fan-out panels, for the first time in history, YSTV would become fully balanced, and in stereo. In early 2011, some datasheet digging had taken place, and we finally knew what mythical protocol controlled the Leitch/HEDCO NetMux. This whole replacement system was to be branded [[Tarantula]].
