When “Status Tracking” is enabled (this is the default setting), OmniPro II keeps track of the exact status of each unit even when a lighting scene is initiated by the Room Controller. Room Controllers also keep track of when individual switches in a room are turned on and off. When all of the lighting loads in a room are turned off, the “Off” indicator is illuminated. If any of the lighting loads in a room are turned on at an HAI UPB™ Wall Switch or Dimmer, the “On” indicator will illuminate and the “Off” indicator is turned off. Likewise, if the “On” indicator or one of the scene indicators is illuminated, and then all of the lighting loads are turned off at HAI UPB™ Wall Switches, the “Off” indicator will illuminate and any others are turned off.
About House Controllers
The HAI UPB™
When used to control rooms of lighting in the HLC structure, each button on the House Controller is used to toggle all of the lights in the respective room on and off. When the room is turned on, the LED indicator behind the respective button is illuminated and all of the lights in the room are turned on. When the room is turned off, the LED indicator behind the respective button is turned off and all of the lights in the room are turned off. If a lighting load in the respective room is turned on, the LED indicator behind the button is illuminated. When all lighting loads in the respective room are turned off, the LED indicator behind the button is turned off.
When used to control rooms of lighting in the HLC structure, each House Controller controls 8 consecutive rooms (i.e. Room
Within the HLC structure, House Controllers can also be configured as a general purpose 8 button keypad controller that is used to trigger 8 different macro programs in the OmniPro II. When configuring a House Controller as a general purpose 8 button keypad controller, it must be set to a unit number between the first and last unit number in a room (i.e.
About CentraLite
CentraLite is a centralized lighting control system that uses hardwired lighting control technology to control lighting loads, fans, and mechanical low voltage relays.
CentraLite lighting scenes are used to control groups of lights which are preset to turn on to various levels of dimming.
When set to CentraLite, the OmniPro II controller can:
¾Send commands (on, off, and level) to individual loads and relays
¾Receive status (on and off) from individual loads and relays
¾Execute scene commands (on and off) to control of up to 255 CentraLite lighting scenes
¾Receive commands when buttons are pressed on a CentraLite keypad (up to 127)
About Lutron RadioRA
Lutron RadioRA uses wireless communication technology to control lighting. Each Switch or Dimmer controls one Zone, or area, of lighting in a RadioRA system. Accessory Switches and Dimmers are used to control the lights locally from up to 9 additional locations. Master controls provide control and monitoring for all the lights in a RadioRA system.
Phantom Buttons are “virtual” buttons in the RS232 Interface. Though there are no physical buttons that represent these Phantom Buttons, they work very similarly to buttons on RadioRA Master Controls. Phantom Buttons are intended to give the RS232 Interface control over multiple RadioRA Switches and Dimmers with one command. To control more than one device at one time, Phantom Buttons are recommended.
