Line 5:

VDCP is a [[serial communications]] protocol based on [[RS-422]]. It is derived from the [[Sony]] [[9-Pin Protocol]], an industry-standard protocol for control of professional broadcast [[VTR]]s.

Full details of the protocol are available from [[Harris Broadcast]], a division of [[Harris Corporation]] who acquired Louth in [[2000]].

In [[2001]] Harris announced the introduction of [[NDCP]], a TCP/IP-based successor for VDCP. Little information on NDCP is readily available, and thus VDCP has remained the de-facto standard.
