  • Sending unconfigured messages to NeXtMidas:
    • Any command started from within X-Midas with a numeric ID will automatically receive any X-Midas messages sent to it.
    • The syntax used is the same as that used in XBC (see XBC Unconfigured Messages).
      • The corresponding NeXtMidas message will look like this:
        NAME X-Midas message name.
        INFO X-Midas message info.
        DATA {VAL1=<val1>,VAL2=<val>,...}
  • Sending unconfigured messages to X-Midas:
    • When sending a message to X-Midas, use XM.<xmid> as the destination ID (where xmid is the numeric X-Midas ID).
      • From a macro: 
        message send ID="XM.<xmid>" NAME="<name>" INFO=<info> DATA=<data>
        Where <data> matches the structure of an unconfigured message (see XBC Unconfigured Messages).
