"^" Button Commands
These Button Commands are not case sensitive.
All commands that begin with "^" have the capability of assigning a variable text address range and
button state range. A device must first be defined in the NetLinx programming language with values
for the Device: Port : System (in all programming examples - Panel is used in place of these values).
Variable text ranges allow you to target one or more variable text channels in a single
command.
Button State ranges allow you to target one or more states of a variable text button state with
a single command.
The "." character is used for 'through' notation, and the "&" character is used for 'And'
notation.
