Dimmer Status

This function returns the status of the specified dimmer.



The use of multiple dimmers (e.g. 'A', '&', and '-') are not allowed with this function, and their use 
will return an error.



If the level of the dimmer is undefined, the level is reported an 'UN'. 



This is the only method used to determine if a level is undefined. For example, the response to the 
command above would be: "12,'CHAN:3 CURV:1 LEV:UN',13,10,'?'"

Reboot

This function reboots the dimmer and initializes it to its power-up state. The device will go off-line with the 
master and return on-line.

If <pack> is specified, it must be 1.

Set Default Level Time

This function sets the time taken for a level to change from its current level to a new level when using a level 
command.

Set Default Preset Time

This function sets the time taken for a preset recall to ramp when no time is specified to override this default 
time.
