Keywords

A keyword defines the operation to perform in a NetLinx command, such as the word CALL in the statement:

1
CALL 'Read Data' (Buffer)
  • Keywords are case insensitive.
  • For example, the command PUSH is the same as push and the data type INTEGER is the same as integer.
  • Keywords are reserved, meaning that identifiers (device names, constants or variables) may not be defined with the same name.
  • Each keyword reserved by the NetLinx compiler is listed below along with an explanation regarding its purpose and usage.

Note

NetLinx specific functions must always be accompanied by parenthesis, even if there are no parameters.

Example

1
GET_SYSTEM_NUMBER()
