Integrated Master - NetLinx Programming
Overview
IMPORTANT:
The SEND_COMMANDs listed in this chapter are for the Switcher, Video Input and Output Boards, and Audio
Switching Input and Output Boards. For information on using NetLinx Studio, the System Configuration interface, and
additional NetLinx commands, see the "WebConsole & Programming Guide – NX-Series Controllers" (available at
www.amx.com).
The integrated NetLinx Master on the Enova DGX Switcher recognizes SEND_COMMANDs. Use NetLinx Studio (v4.0 or later
is required) to send these commands to the Enova DGX Switcher, or use these commands in standard compiled NetLinx
Programming code running on the integrated NetLinx Master.
The Device in <Device:Port:System> is the Enova DGX enclosure’s device number (see "Device Numbering" below).
NOTE:
If a single Master control point is desired for multiple Enova DGX enclosures, write the NetLinx code to provide the
connection between the Masters.
Device Numbering
The NX Master number (00000) and the Device ID number (default 05002) are listed in NetLinx Studio’s OnLine Tree
(FIG. 121). The Device number is also listed in the System Configuration interface (under System/Devices).
NOTE:
For additional information on using NetLinx Studio, refer to the "Instruction Manual – NetLinx Studio" (at
www.amx.com).
NOTE:
For NetLinx programming purposes, each AxLink device must be assigned a unique number to locate that device
on the bus. The range for AxLink device numbers is 1-255.
IMPORTANT:
Best practices for using SEND_COMMANDs with DXLink endpoints include sending commands to the specific
input or output port of the Enova DGX switcher (e.g., 5002:4:0 for input/output channel 4).
