communication between MUSE controller and NX-xxxx controller

Is there a simple way to communicate with a legacy NX-1200 for example in a system, and use its ports?
I have added it to the devices on the web interface, but it is a generic Netlinx device
Device Instance
Driver ID: com.amx.thing.netlinx
Manufacturer: AMX
Models:
It comes online, and goes offline if the NX-1200 is disconnected
I am sure this has been done by others, just looking for pointers in the right direction.
would be nice to be able to use the ports on the Netlinx device from the Python program.

It's not possible to access the NX ports directly from Muse. So you may have at least to pass control and response between the NX device and the device created from the MU, it is not working without any programming on the NetLinx side.
Maybe this helps: from the NetLinx perspective, I imagine a MU NetLinx device more or less as kind of a "module" device, and in a NetLinx module, you have all options open to use channels, levels, strings and commands for your needs.

That is kind of what I am trying, using send_command to control the I/O for example.
I was just wondering if anyone had tried this and got it working
in general this works, our solution center is running "hybrid". The existing parts of control still work on NetLinx, and the AV part we reworked to N2600 series is controlled by Muse with Automator, with interaction thru such Muse-generated NetLinx devices, to join the two controller worlds.
Let me see if I can do a little sample with NetLinx and Muse side.
I did a small sample to basically show the possibilities passing channel, level, string and command forth and back. Hope this will give a little idea about usage.
Will there be new Muse plugins in 2025? Adapt to other ideas
I only know that there are some bigger new things in the pipe for Muse, next release I think will be to Infocomm
