DEVICE HOLDOFF ON|OFF

Sets the Master to holdoff devices (i.e. does not allow them to report
ONLINE) until all objects in the NetLinx program have completed
executing the DEFINE_START section.
If set to ON, any messages to devices in DEFINE_START will be lost,
however, this prevents incoming messages being lost in the Master
upon startup. When DEVICE_HOLDOFF is ON, you must use ONLINE
events to trigger device startup SEND_COMMANDs.
By default, DEVICE HOLDOFF is OFF to maintain compatibility with
Axcess systems where f devices are initialized in DEFINE_START.
