I am trying to run SikuliX (sikulix.jar) with Java 1.6  due to hardware limitations that prevent me from using a newer Java version.

I have built SikuliX 1.1.0 by following the instructions from: http://sikulix.com/specials/files/offline-setup.html.

My goal is to run SikuliX as a server on the target hardware and send commands to it from host machine connected in network, similar to how robotframework-SikuliLibrary works, but using this older version.

I noticed that the --server argument is available:
java -jar sikulix.jar --server [port]


Questions:
1. How does the --server mode work in SikuliX 1.1.0?
2. Does it function similarly to the Robot Framework Remote Server?
3. How can I send commands like click("image.png") to the server?
4. What protocol does it use for communication (HTTP, XML-RPC, etc.)?

Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks in advance!
