Reading UDP from external device without device software

[ikdemartijn]

I figured it out! Pardon me for replying on my own post but I thought people might appreciate it if they ever stumble upon this same problem ;) See below for the code I used:

import socket

UDP_IP = "10.0.0.37" #the IP of the ethernetport of the pc
UDP_PORT = 30002  # the receiving port on the pc

sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, # Internet
                     socket.SOCK_DGRAM) # UDP
sock.bind((UDP_IP, UDP_PORT))

while True:
    data, addr = sock.recvfrom(4096) # buffer size is 4096 bytes
    print("received message:", data)

replace the UDP_IP and UDP_port with your own values ofcourse
