NetLinx Programming Language Reference Guide
The following table lists the information contained in data objects:
 The event number is a number associated with a command, error condition or the device ID
associated with an online/offline event. The numeric value is stored as either a floating-point
number or integer, as appropriate; the value can be assigned to a variable of any numeric type.
This field could be a value associated with a command event or error condition.
 Text associated with the event is associated with a command, string, or error notification. It
can also be the device ID string in the case of an online/offline event.
The following table shows the fields that contain relevant information for data or notifications received
via Internet protocol (IP):
Not all fields in the
DATA object apply to all types of events. The following table lists the fields and the
corresponding events. An 'X' indicates that the field applies (or could apply) to the given event.
Level events
The level object is available to the level event handler as a local variable. Level events are triggered by a
level change on a particular device. This eliminates having to constantly evaluate a level against a
previous value. In Axcess, a level needs to be created in the
DEVICE_START section and then a
conditional statement appears in the mainline to evaluate and update the level. The format of the
LEVEL_EVENT is:
