PLEASE NOTE: In order for this type of integration to work, your NeST device must be on the same network as your Tricaster device. The NeST sends score updates directly to the Tricaster software and needs to be able to communicate with it directly.
Use our pre-configured, easy-to-use templates with your Tricaster® device to get real-time scores on your live stream. We’ve created custom LiveText™ templates for each of the following 8 sports:
Basketball
Football
Soccer
Volleyball
Field Hockey
Wrestling
Lacrosse
Baseball/Softball
After downloading the templates, unzip them and save them to your Tricaster’s hard drive.
Now you will need to update the Tricaster settings in the NeST details section of the Scorebird Admin mobile app (iOS, Android). The steps below show how to do this.
Enter your Tricaster configuration details, including the username and password (if your Tricaster is protected by authentication)
The TriCaster® integration uses “DataLink keys” to map incoming Scorebird data (which comes from your scoreboard) to fields in the LiveText templates. These mappings are already created for you, you just have to load the template for the sport being played into the Tricaster and go live.
More information on DataLink keys can be found in the LiveText documentation on the Newtek website.
Scores transmit from the scoreboard into the NeST device, which uploads the data to our cloud. Once processed in the cloud, the NeST transmits the processed data over your own network to your Tricaster® device.
