A Zone is any individual RadioRA Switch or Dimmer. A RadioRA System has a maximum of 32 Lighting Zones. Zone Numbers can be used to identify any individual Zone (one Switch or one Dimmer), in a RadioRA system via the RS232 Interface. The Chronos System Bridge and Timeclock bridges two RadioRA systems for a total of 64 Lighting Zone Controls and 24 Master Controls.

When set to RadioRA, the OmniPro II controller can:

¾Send commands (on, off, and level) to individual Switches and Dimmers

¾Receive status (on and off) from individual Switches and Dimmers

¾Receive commands when buttons are pressed on Master Controls

¾Execute Phantom Button commands

About ALC

ALC is intended for installation in homes, which have been pre-wired for installation of ALC system products. OmniPro II controls lights and appliances by sending commands over the ALC signal wiring to ALC Switch Modules. ALC Switches communicate with the OmniPro II over low voltage signal wire. They are two-way devices, so the controller always knows the actual status of the switch. In addition, ALC switches can be used to set scenes by triggering macros in OmniPro II.

When ALC Lighting Control Modules are being used, it is also possible to "ramp" the lighting level of an ALC Dimmer Switch to a new level at a controllable ramp rate.

ALC Module Types

The ALC modules types are: Dimmer Switch, Relay Switch, Slave Switch, Program Switch, and 4-Button Scene Switch Modules.

About X-10

The OmniPro II controls lights and appliances by sending commands over your existing electrical wiring to special switches, outlets, receptacles, and modules, collectively referred to as X-10. Each module (or group of modules) is assigned a House Code and a Unit Number so that the OmniPro II can control the modules individually. When a module hears a command from the OmniPro II for its house code and unit number, it executes the command.

There are 3 different X-10 formats: Standard X-10 (Preset Dim), Extended X-10 (Extended Level), and Compose.

Any module that is "X-10 Compatible" will work with the OmniPro II. The modules come in various types.

House Codes

OmniPro II can control up to 256 lighting and appliance devices. Each device (switches, modules, and keypad) has its own Unit Number (1-256). OmniPro II groups devices by “House Code”, which consists of 16 consecutive unit numbers, starting at Unit 1. Each “House Code” can be configured to a different lighting protocol format such as: Standard X-10, Extended X-10, Lightolier Compose, UPB (open UPB format where you can use the programming capability in the OmniPro II controller to communicate with the UPB network), Lutron RadioRA, CentraLite, or HAI Lighting Control (HLC).

Different lighting devices can not share the same House Code. However, different lighting devices can coexist on an OmniPro II system as long as they are on separate House Codes. For example:

House Code 1 (Units 1-16) = HLC

House Code 2 (Units 17-32) = UPB

House Code 3 (Units 33-48) = X-10 Extended

House Code 4 (Units 49-64) = CentraLite

Etc.
