Programming the Mio R-4
Remote Run Time Commands
A device must first be defined in the NetLinx programming language with values or the Device: Port: System. In all
programming examples - Remote is used in place of these values.
Serial Commands are used in the AxcessX Terminal Emulator mode. These commands are case insensitive.
