Socket communications on IRC 4 ?

in Robot Controller
Hi,
I have a RAPID program that listen to the received sockets in the controller and unpack them for reading some instructions.
the program is running fine on IRC 5. but when I try to run it on IRC 4 the controller shows syntax errors and it doesn't recognize the socket data types (socketdev, socketstatus).
I couldn't find anything related to socket communication the RAPID manual for IRC 4. Does this mean that the IRC 4 doesn't support the socket communication ?
if so, is there any other alternative way of communication to fix the issue?

Regards,

    Hi,

    yes, you are right the S4-Controller does not support socket messaging.

    Only serial communication is possible.
