Home Automation HOME AUTOMATION Unit Toggle Command, Program Security Commands, 0=OFF, 3=AWAY

If the selected unit is not capable of dim and bright commands, only a single menu is shown.

Porch Light (Unit Name) 0=OFF 1=ON 9=TIM #=STA

If the selected unit is UPB, press 6 (LED) to control an LED on a UPB Keypad.

On the 6-Button Keypad: LED 1 is behind the “On” button, LED 2 is behind the “Off” button, and LED 3-6 is behind the A-D

buttons, respectively. On the 8-button Keypad: LED 1-8 is behind the 1-8 buttons, respectively. For example:

WHEN U1 SW 3:

UNIT 1 LED 3 ON

This program illuminates the “A” button (on a 6-Button Keypad) when the “A” button on that keypad controller is pressed. This program can also be used to illuminate the “3” button (on an 8-Button Keypad) when the “3” button is pressed.

If the selected unit is UPB, the # (STA) key is used to request the status form the specified UPB device.

WHEN LINK 1 ON:

Porch Light STATUS

When “Link 1 On” is received on the UPB network, Omni IIe sends a status request message to the UPB Wall Switch (named Porch Light) to acquire its current status.

This “Status Request” program is particularly beneficial to keep the current state of UPB devices that are altered by a “lighting scene” (Link On or Link Off) command. When the Link On or Link Off command is transmitted by a 6-Button or 8-Button Keypad Controller, each device that has that Link pre-configured will respond to its preset levels. At this point, Omni IIe no longer knows the exact state of the units that responded to the specified Link command until the switch is pressed locally, the controller sends a command message to the device, or a Status Request message is issued to the device.

Unit Toggle Command

Using HAI PC Access Software, you can create programs to toggle any unit (1-128) from its current state to the opposite state.

When the program is executed, the unit will toggle to Off if the unit is currently in a non-off state (On, On for time, Level 1-100, Scene A-L, Dimmed Steps, Dimmed for time, Brightened Steps, or Brightened for time).

When the program is executed, the unit will toggle to On if the unit is currently Off.

Note: If a unit is currently timed (On for time, Dimmed for time, Brightened for time, or Off for time), when the toggle program is executed, the unit will toggle to the opposite state and will defeat the timer.

This programming feature will simplify programming when using a button on a UPB, Compose, ALC, or RadioRA keypad to toggle a light on and off with the push of a single button. For example:

WHEN FRONT FOYER SW1 PRESSED: FRONT FOYER TOGGLE
