AxLink Channels
Each AXLink device contains 255 channels numbered 1-255. The AxLink Channels for the thermostat
are defined in the table below. The Type column indicates who initiates the channel change. The Master
directs the thermostat to change its state through channels with type CMD. The thermostat informs the
Master of state changes through channels with type FDBK. Some channels can be used for both CMD
and FDBK.
