  Have you tried this?

  "'?TXT-<vt addr range>,<button states range>'"
  
        Get the current text information. 
  
   
  
        Syntax: 
  
              SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'?TXT-<vt addr range>,<button states range>,<optional index>'"
  
   
  
        Variables: 
  
              variable text address range = 1 - 4000.
  
              button states range = 1 - 256 for multi-state buttons 
  
                (0 = All states, for General buttons 1 = Off state and 2 = On state).   
  
              optional index = This is used if a string was too long to get back in one 
  
                command. The reply will start at this index.    
  
              custom event type = 1001:
  
   
  
                    Flag   - Zero
  
                    Value1 - Button state number
  
                    Value2 - Actual length of string 
  
                    Value3 - Index
  
                    Text   - Text from the button 
  
                    Text length - Button text length
  
   
  
   
  
        Example:
  
              SEND COMMAND Panel,"'?TXT-529,1'"
  
              Gets the button 'OFF state' text information.
  
              The result sent to the Master would be:
  
                    ButtonGet Id = 529 Type = 1001
  
                    Flag   = 0
  
                    VALUE1 = 1
  
                    VALUE2 = 14
  
                    VALUE3 = 1
  
                    TEXT   = This is a test
  
                    TEXT LENGTH = 14
