Monitoring Many NetLinx-connected Devices

This module monitors one or more NetLinx-connected devices. For each device,

the module will register and monitor the online/offline status. This module

provides a very simple way to monitor NetLinx-connected devices. However, it

does not allow the naming of these devices. All devices registered with this

module will display their device definition for their name, for example 128:1:0,

and the manufacturer and model will be determined by the device. This module is

most useful for monitoring a large quantity of NetLinx devices where the logical

name of the device is not important, such as a bank of Input or Relay cards.

To use this module, create a device array with the NetLinx connected devices you

want monitored. Then pass this device array to the module:

DEFINE_DEVICE

dvDev1 = 5002:1:0

dvDev2 = 5002:2:0

dvDev3 = 5002:3:0

dvRMSEngine = 33001:1:0

DEFINE_VARIABLE

// RMS NetLinx Device to Monitor

VOLATILE DEV dvMonitoredDevices[]= { dvDev1, dvDev2, dvDev3 }
