Programming Programming This section provides the Axcess programming commands for the AXC-TEMP and RTS1. The TEMP_LEVEL variable receives data from the TEMP card (Device 16), inputs 1 - 4. The data is in three-digit numbers (986 = 98.6 degrees). The SEND_STRING command to the Mini-LCD Panel converts the number to print with a decimal point.
