Converting AXCESS to NetLinx
Technical Support Guide
Brand:
- AMX
Models:
- [List the models affected here on separate lines]
Overview:
When AMX designed the NetLinx control system, the goal was to upgrade the processor, bus and to greatly improve the power of the programming language.
Originally named Axcess2, the new language was designed to be a superset of the Axcess programming language. NetLinx contains all of the elements of Axcess.
You cannot compile NetLinx code on an Axcess compiler, and likewise, you cannot download NetLinx code to an Axcess control system. To upgrade existing Axcess control system to NetLinx you have to upgrade the Axcess master to a NetLinx master. You can still use the existing Axcess equipment as long as you can disable the existing Axcess Central Controller.
