Although separate Vertex clusters are two different lighting systems, we still have some ways to send information between their Node-REDs. In this way, we can e.g. trigger the lighting on groups that are in a different cluster than the wall panel is. We do that by using the TCP/IP protocol and dedicated Node-RED nodes for such integrations.
Prerequisites
Vertex clusters have to be physically connected within the same LAN network to allow for sending data between Node-REDs.

Instructions
Configure the TCP connection - Vertex that is sending messages
Open the Node-RED for the Vertex that will be sending data to another cluster.
In the Node Palette, find the TCP node from the Output section.
Highlight important information in a panel like this one. To edit this panel's color or style, select one of the options in the menu.
