IP control of tuners and tv's from codec

CajunSpy

Looking for information.  Is it possible to connect and control devices from codec.  Need to send on/off and channel strings to tuners and tvs.  I'm assuming macros make it possible but I am struggling to find anything on this.  In the past I have used control systems (AMX,Crestron, Extron) to listen and react but why add hardware if I don't need to.

Thanks

Thanks @Janos Benyovszki

It appears outbound serial was just released in 11.14.2 so I'm thinking not yet for IP control.

So, next question.  How many serial dongles can I hang off a codec for outbound serial control?  I have 3 cable tuners and 3 displays in a room that I am looking to control.  I can probably get by with 3 serial connections but the docs on [xConfiguration SerialPort Outbound Port[1] BaudRate](https://roomos.cisco.com/xapi/Configuration.SerialPort.Outbound.Port[1].BaudRate/) make it look like I can only have 1.
