Question: Answer:

Question:

What is this NetLinx Master error? - CIpLibrary::Device_ID - Error 1

Answer:

This error is cause by passing a parameter that is not of type DEV to the DEVICE_ID keyword. 

This usually occurs when converting AXCESS code to NetLinx. To fix this error, try the following:

  • Look for all references to the DEVICE_ID function
  • Make sure the value passed to the function is of type DEV. If this appears inside a DEFINE_CALL or DEFINE_FUNCTION and a parameter is passed to the DEVICE_ID function, make sure that parameter is of type DEV.
