NX-Series Controllers - WebConsole & Programming Guide
Overview
NetLinx Integrated Controllers
NetLinx Integrated Controllers (Masters) can be programmed to control RS-232/422/485, Relay, IR/Serial, and Input/
Output devices using the NetLinx Studio application (version 4.0 or higher).
Note: Refer to the Products > Central Controllers > NetLinx Integrated Controllers page at www.amx.com for details
and variations available for these products.
NX controllers feature an on-board Web Console which allows you to connect to the NX controller via a web browser
and make various configuration and security settings. The WebConsole is described in this document (starting with the
On-Board WebConsole User Interface section on page 19).
NX controllers are Duet-compatible and can be upgraded via firmware. Duet is a dual-interpreter firmware platform
from AMX which combines the proven reliability and power of NetLinx with the extensive capabilities of the Java
®
MicroEdition (Java Standard Edition Embedded) platform. Duet simplifies the programming of a system that includes
the NX controller and other third party devices by standardizing device and function definitions, defaulting touch panel
button assignments, and controlling feedback methods.
Dynamic Device Discovery makes integration even easier by automatically identifying and communicating with devices
which support this beaconing technology. Refer to the Manage Devices - Device Options section on page 58 for more
detailed information on the use of Dynamic Device Discovery (DDD).
