Supported SEND_COMMANDs
Massio Keypads support a number of NetLinx SEND_COMMANDs, described in the following section. To use these
commands, establish a Telnet session from the PC to the NetLinx master (see the
Establishing a Terminal Connection via

All text is based on a Unicode index.
SEND_COMMANDs
Command
Description
@BRT
Set Brightness level for all LEDs (pushbuttons and levels indicator bar) for both On and
Off states.
Syntax:
@BRT-<on brightness (0-32)>,<off brightness (0-32)>
Variables:
on brightness = LED On brightness; ranges from 0 (off) to 32 (max).
off brightness = LED Off level brightness; ranges from 0 (off) to 32 (max).
Example:
SEND_COMMAND keypad,'@BRT-32,0'
Sets the LEDs to max brightness in the On state (32), and minimum brightness (no
illumination) in the Off state (0).
?EXPANSION
Allows NetLinx code to query the keypad to determine whether any expansion keypads
are attached to it.
Syntax:
?EXPANSION
Example:
SEND_COMMAND DEVICE_1,"'?EXPANSION'"
Response Syntax:
"Expansion-<index>,<count>,<port>,<type>,<description>"
Variables:
Index - response index, starting with 1
Count - total number of response strings (i.e. max # of expansion keypads allowed,
currently 2)
Port - Port associated with the expansion keypad
Type - Expansion keypad type (either MET-7X or MET-13X)
Description - Product description
Example Response Strings when a single expansion keypad is present:
"Expansion.Device-1,2,2,MET-7X,Metreau 7-Button Expansion Keypad"
"Expansion.Device-2,2,3,NONE,NONE"
LED-DIS
Disable LEDs on the keypad.
Syntax:
LED-DIS
Example:
SEND_COMMAND DEVICE_1,"'LED-DIS'"
Disables LEDs on DEVICE_1.
Note
: This parameter does not get stored in non-volatile memory. LEDs are enabled by
default at each power-up.

Enable LEDs on the keypad. LEDs are enabled by default.
Syntax:
LED-EN
Example:
SEND_COMMAND DEVICE_1,"'LED-EN'"
