AMX Lighting PROlink/AXlink Programming
AXlink Buffer Commands
All commands that go between the AMX Lighting system and Axcess go into the buffer.
AXlink Level Commands
Level programming applies to Axcess programs. These are not commands sent to the AMX
Lighting controller. AXlink levels are returned as 8-bit levels in 255 steps. Use a conversion to
percent when displaying levels to variable text buttons because it is more familiar to people.
Terminal Emulator will display AMX Lighting buffer responses if you send the buffer to device 0.
An example would be:
IF (LENGTH_STRING (LTS_BUFFER))
{
SEND_STRING 0, "LTS_BUFFER"
CLEAR_BUFFER LTS_BUFFER
}
AXlink Buffer Commands
CREATE_BUFFER
CREATE _BUFFER buffers incoming
characters from the specified device in the
specified string array.
Use this within the DEFINE_VARIABLE section of the Axcess pro-
gram. An example of the Array would be: LTS_BUFFER [#], where
the # is the length of characters in the buffer.
Syntax:
CREATE_BUFFER device, array
Array must have been defined in DEFINE_VARIABLE as a
string array.
Example:
DEFINE _VARIABLE
LTS_BUFFER[100]
DEFINE_START
CREATE_BUFFER LTS, LTS_BUFFER
AXlink Level Commands
CREATE_LEVEL
CREATE_LEVEL buffers incom-
ing level changes in the speci-
fied variable for the specified
device.
Create AMX Lighting levels Dim1..Dim6 for use with AXlink touch panels and
other 8-bit level displays.
Syntax:
CREATE_LEVEL <device>, <level number>, <variable>
Example:
DEFINE _VARIABLE
DIM1
DEFINE_START
CREATE_LEVEL LTS, 1, DIM1
SEND_LEVEL
SEND_LEVEL sends a AMX
Lighting dimmer level to a touch
panel bar graph or a Softwire
panel. Follow procedures for
CREATE_LEVEL first.
AMX Lighting levels can be sent to touch panels or other AXlink devices like
the AXB-DMX512 or the volume box AXB-VOL3.
Syntax:
SEND_LEVEL <device>, <level_number>, <variable>
Example:
SEND_LEVEL PANEL, 1, DIM1
