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 2.4 or higher).
These NI Controllers feature an on-board Web Console which allows you to connect to the NI Controller
via a web browser and make various configuration and security settings.
The Web Console is described in this document (starting with the Onboard WebConsole User
Interface section on page 21).
These NI 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 (JavaME) platform. Duet simplifies the programming
of a system that includes the NI-900 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 new beaconing technology.
Refer to the Manage Devices - Device Options section on page 65 for more detailed information on the
use of Dynamic Device Discovery (DDD).
About This Document
This document describes using the on-board Web Console, as well as NetLinx send commands and
terminal communications to configure the NI Controllers:
Each major section of the Web Console is described in a separate section of this document.
Refer to:
the Onboard WebConsole User Interface section on page 21,
the WebConsole - WebControl Options section on page 25,
the WebConsole - Security Options section on page 27, and

The Initial Configuration and Firmware Upgrade section (page 5) describes upgrading the
firmware on NI Controllers.
The Programming section (page 77) lists and defines the NetLinx send commands that are
supported by these NI Controllers.
The Terminal (Program Port/Telnet) Commands section (page 91) describes the commands
and options available via either a Program Port (RS232) or Telnet terminal session with the NI
Controller.
