RMS NetLinx Programmer’s Guide
Device Values
Each monitored device has a set of values used in its description. These values
are supplied when the device is registered and consist of the following:
Device Values
Device Number
This is the device number of the device, as defined in the NetLinx
program. Devices are tracked by Device ID so this value must be
unique within the devices of a given room. For instance, you can have
multiple "1:1:0" devices as long as there is only one device with a
Device ID of "1:1:0" in the room.
Name
This is the name of device. This name is displayed on the
administrators console and readily identifies the device.
Manufacturer
This is the manufacturer of the device. If this value is not supplied
during registration, the manufacturer of the NetLinx-connected device
will be used.
Model
This is the model number of the device. If this value is not supplied
during registration, the model name of the NetLinx-connected device
will be used.
Device Type
This is the device type of the NetLinx-connected device. This might be
"NI-2000" or "NXP-TPI/4 Touch Panel". This is available for Axcess
and NetLinx devices. This information is registered automatically by
the RMS server.
Serial Number
This is the serial number of the NetLinx-connected Device. This is only
available for NetLinx devices. This information is registered
automatically by the RMS server.
Firmware Version This is the firmware version of the NetLinx-connected device. This is
only available for NetLinx devices. This information is registered
automatically be the RMS server.
Address and
Address Type
This is the physical address and address type for the
Netlinx-connected device. This information describes how the device
is connected to the NetLinx master. A device connected via ICSNet
will display "ICSNet" for the address type and the hardware's network
address for the address. A device connected via IP will display
"TCP/IP" for the address type and the IP address for the address.
Axcess devices will display "AXLink" for both values. This information
may be useful for diagnosing device connectivity problems.
This information is registered automatically by the RMS server.
