<ol>
<li>In Preferences, make sure "Device Support" is checked. Restart
NodeBox if needed.<br></li>
<li>In File > Devices, create a OSC device. In the first field
(where it says "-1" enter the port NodeBox should listen to). Press
start. (You can also enable auto-start if you want to start the OSC
listener automatically when the file is opened).<br></li>
<li>On your device, use the same port to send to.<br></li>
<li>In NodeBox, create a "Receive OSC" node. Leave the device name
as-is. Optionally, change the address prefix to only listen to
messages under an address (by default it listens to
everything).<br></li>
<li>If you want the arguments to have names, you can fill them in
under the "arguments" port. For example, if you receive events with
an x,y coordinate, use "x,y" (without the quotes) in the arguments
field.</li>
</ol>
<p>I've included an example that uses PD to send OSC events.</p></div>Frederik De Bleser
