NTCIP.DMS.GetMessage |
Read-only |
Retrieves any message, in which the B1 parameter is the type of memory and the B2 parameter is an index, between 1 (one) and 255. The available types of memory are 2: MemoryTypePermanent, 3: MemoryTypeChangeable, 4: MemoryTypeVolatile, 5: emoryTypeCurrentBuffer, 6: MemoryTypeSchedule, or 7: MemoryTypeBlank. This Block Tag contains 4 (four) Elements. These Elements are Element 1: Text displayed in MULTI String format, Element 2: Priority, between 1 (one) and 255, Element 3: Status. Possible values are 1: Not Used, 2: Modifying, 3: Validating, 4: Valid, 5: Error, 6: ModifyReq, 7: ValidateReq, or 8: NotUsedReq, and Element 4: Name of the user who added a message |

NTCIP.DMS.DefineMessage |
Write-only |
Defines a message that later can be activated. This Block Tag contains 7 (seven) Elements. These Elements are Element 1: Type of memory. Possible values are 2: MemoryTypePermanent, 3: MemoryTypeChangeable, or 4: MemoryTypeVolatile, Element 2: Index of a message, between 1 (one) and 255, Element 3: Text displayed in MULTI String format, Element 4: Priority, between 1 (one) amd 255, Element 5: Name of the user who added a message, Element 6: Indicates whether beacons are triggered or not. Possible values are 0 (zero, does not trigger) or 1 (one, triggers), Element 7: Indicates whether the pixel service is triggered or not. Possible values are 0 (zero, does not trigger) or 1 (one, triggers) |

NTCIP.DMS.LongPowerMessage |
Reading or writing |
Allows reading or defining a message activated after a power failure. The N1 and N2 parameters are used only when writing, in which the N1 parameter is the type of memory and the N2 parameter is an index between 1 (one) and 255. Possible values for memory types are 2: MemoryTypePermanent, 3: MemoryTypeChangeable, or 4: MemoryTypeVolatile. When writing, this Tag accepts any value to start a writing operation. When reading, this Tag returns a value in the format MMXXXXCCCC, in which MM is a type of memory with 8 (eight) bits, XXXX is the memory index with 16 bits, and CCCC is a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Code) code of a message |
