"^" Button Commands

These Button Commands are used in NetLinx Studio 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 - Panel is used in place of these values).

Variable text ranges allow you to target 1 or more variable text channels in a single command.
Button State ranges allow you to target 1 or more states of a variable text button with a single command.
 "." Character is used for the 'through' notation, also the "&" character is used for the 'And' notation.
