Newpoint Compass Software is emerging as the catalyst for standardizing certain design elements of earth station and network devices. As a result, devices from a variety of participating manufacturers will be able to communicate easily with each other and with the network operation software, without the need for extensive custom integration engineering. Newpoint Compass itself comes bundled with many capabilities that also reduce the need for custom engineering, including a large library of built-in interfaces for earth station and network devices from most major manufacturers. The optional Newpoint Compass Toolkit provides the capability to write interface drivers for virtually any such device.
