Send it an ^ANI command.

From the AMX-PI:

BUTTON COMMANDS:

---

(Note: A device must first be defined in the NetLinx programming language with values

for the Device: Port: System (in all programming examples - Panel is used in

place of these values)).

(Note: Vt addr range = Variable text address range)

"'^ANI-<variable text address range>,<start state>,<end state>,<time>'"
Run a button animation. Time is in 1/10 seconds and is optional.
0 for state means current state.

Syntax:

SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'^ANI-<vt addr range>,<start state>,<end state>,<time>'"

Variables:

variable text address range = 1 - 4000.
start state = Beginning of button state (0= current state).
end state = End of button state.
time = In 1/10 second intervals.

Example:

SEND_COMMAND Panel,"'^ANI-500,1,25,100'"
Runs a button animation at text range 500 from state 1 to
state 25 for 10 second.
