SEND_STRING Escape Sequences are sent to Port 1
The DXLink Modules support several special SEND_STRING escape sequences. If any of the character
combinations listed below are found anywhere within a SEND_STRING program instruction, they will be treated as
a command and not the literal characters.
Use the ESCSEQON and ESCSEQOFF NetLinx SEND_COMMANDS to control whether these are active or not. The
ESCSEQON command must precede the Escape Sequences, otherwise strings will be processed normally. These
commands are sent to Port 1.
