"^" Button Commands

These Button Commands are used in the NetLinx protocol and are case insensitive.

All commands that begin with "^" have the capability of assigning a variable text address range and
button state range. A device must first be defined in the NetLinx programming language with values
for the Device: Port: System
(in all programming examples - Remote is used in place of these values).



Variable text ranges allow you to target one or more variable text channels in a single
command.



Button State ranges allow you to target one or more states of a variable text button with a
single command.



The "." Character is used for the 'through' notation, also the "&" character is used for the
'And' notation.
