Control Point Actions (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

All control points perform the following tasks:

  • Find available UPnP devices on the network. For more information, see Device Location.
  • Determine which of these devices are of interest. For more information, see Device Description.
  • Issue control requests to the devices of interest and receive events generated by the devices. For more information, see Device Control.

An application must first find available UPnP devices on the network by performing a search. Because the search criteria defined by UPnP is broad, the application may find more devices than needed. Therefore, the application must examine the characteristics of the devices it found to determine which ones most closely match the search criteria. The application can then issue control requests to those devices.
