WebLinx Programming Commands

Creating ASP scripts which present graphically intuitive control functions, and linking them to
Axcess programs to perform equipment-specific operations, involve web-based and Axcess control
technologies. You need to have a good working knowledge of both to successfully create web pages
with ASP scripts, which can control the vast array of equipment used in commercial, residential,
and industrial applications.

WebLinx Include Files

The WebLinx include files are stored (typically) in the c:\inetpub\wwwroot\WebLinx\Wlsdk
directory:
These include files must be included in every ASP script for communications and control of the
Central Controller. Refer to the Sample ASP/Axcess Programs section for use of the include files in
ASP scripts.

Control Commands

The WebLinx control commands used in ASP scripts must adhere to the following syntax structure:

WebLinx server control port

The WebLinx Server monitors TCP/IP port number 10501 for control commands. This port is a
fixed parameter for the WebLinx Server, and is stored in a configuration file for the WebLinx Server
program.
WebLinx Administrator Program
WLSDKInit.inc include file sets up several internal objects required by the WebLinx
Server to communicate with the AXB-NET/Central Controller system.
WLControl.inc include file contains the control commands provided with the WebLinx
Server program to control equipment.
