Pass Through Commands
For other commands, the NetLinx String command will interpret any existing N-Series API command. For example, to
enable the scaler, send the following string command:
SEND_STRING <DEV>, ’scalerenable’
Similarly, to disable the scaler, send the string command:
SEND_STRING <DEV>, ’scalerdisable’
The response to a pass through string command is the issued command followed by the status message. For
example:
•
Command string:
SEND_STRING <DEV>, ’scalerenable’
•
Response string
“'scalerenable-SVSI_RXGEN2:N225A020000140',A,'NAME:00:19:0B:80:01:BD',A,'MAC:00:19:0B:80:01:BD'…”
NOTE: Multiple commands cannot be issued together separated by
’\r’
.
For more information, refer to the API documentation for the N-Series device.
