NI-700 Overview
The NI-700 NetLinx Integrated Master Controller can be programmed to control RS-232/422/485, IR/
Serial, and Input/Output devices through the use of both the NetLinx programming language and the
NetLinx Studio application (version 2.4 or higher). Another key feature of this product is the ability to
easily access the configuration switches without having to remove a cover plate.
