Overview
This section describes the Send_Commands, Send_Strings, and Channel commands you can use to
program the Integrated Controller. The examples in this section require a declaration in the
DEFINE_DEVICE section of your program to work correctly. Refer to the
NetLinx Programming
Language instruction manual for specifics about declarations and DEFINE_DEVICE information.
Port Assignments By NI Model
Master Send_Commands
These commands are specific to the Master and not the Controller. These commands are sent to the DPS
0:1:0 (the Master you are connected to).
A device (<DEV>) must first be defined in the NetLinx programming language with values for the
Device: Port: System (<D:P:S>).
