esri.layers.ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer(url, options?)

Creates a new ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer object. A URL is a required parameter. This layer also takes some optional parameters. These optional parameters can be included in any order.
Parameters:
<String> url Required URL to the ArcGIS Server REST resource at represents a map service. An example is http://sampleserver1.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Portland/Portland_ESRI_LandBase_AGO/MapServer. For more information on constructing a URL, see The Services Directory and the REST API.
<Object> options Optional Optional parameters. See options list.
Options:
<Number> displayLevels Lists which levels to draw. (As of v1.2)

In the following example, assume you have two layers. The first layer is an ArcGIS Online Street Map layer, and you want to use only levels 0 through 7. You also have a second layer with more recent street data that you want to use for levels 8 through 12. 
  var agoServiceURL = "http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/ESRI_StreetMap_World_2D/MapServer";
  var agoLayer = new esri.layers.ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer(agoServiceURL, { displayLevels:[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7]});
  map.addLayer(agoLayer);

  var myServiceURL = "http://myserver/ArcGIS/rest/services/myservice/MapServer";
  var myLayer = new esri.layers.ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer(myServiceURL, { displayLevels:[8,9,10,11,12]});
  map.addLayer(myLayer);
<String> id Id to assign to the layer. If not assigned, esri.Map assigns value.
<Number> opacity Initial opacity or transparency of layer. Values range from 0.0 to 1.0, where 0.0 is 100% transparent and 1.0 has no transparency. The default value is 1.0.
<String[]> tileServers Array of REST endpoints that can be used to retrieve tile images. (As of v1.1)
<Boolean> visible Initial visibility of the layer. The default value is true.
