Advanced: Within the System settings menu are advanced
functions intended for installers. The item is preceded by an asterisk
and grayed out which requires that the OK button is held for six
seconds before the advanced functions are accessible, as shown in
Fig. 80.

Power Off Mode: This refers to three choices for the way in
which each zone turns on and off. They involve a single tap of
the power button and a hold function, as shown in Fig. 79.
Mute/Off/ w/ Menu: This is the first choice. It
means that a tap of the power button mutes the zone, but
does not turn it off. The hold function brings up a second
menu that requests All Off, yes or no. No turns off just that
zone, yes turns off all zones.
Off/All-Off Menu: In this mode, a tap of the power
button turns the zone off, and a second menu appears that
gives the choice to turn off that zones group (if it is
assigned to a source group) or to turn all zones off.
Off/All-Off: This is a tap of the power button to turn the
zone off and a hold of the power button to turn all zones
off.
Edit Zone Names: This will allow fast programming of specific
zone names without using the Configurator, or will allow
revising a Zone Name after a Configuration has been loaded.
When selected, the first menu displayed will be a selection list
all of the existing Zone Names. The default is “Zone N”, where N
is the zone number. Scroll to the one you wish to edit, and press
OK. Now a list of standard zone names will come up. Scroll to
the one you want, and press OK, or scroll to the last selection in
the list, “Spell Name” for a custom name.
If you select “Spell Name”, a cursor will appear on the left of a
line. The up and down arrows will allow you to sequentially
step through an alpha-numberic character to be placed in the
name position indicated by the cursor. Pressing the button
will toggle the selectable characters between upper and lower
case. When you have selected the first character you want, press
the >> button to advance to the next character position, and
continue to the next letter in the same way. When the name is
complete, press the OK button and proceed to the next zone.
Hub Homeplug Channel: This will allow setting of four
choices: A, B, C, or D. Setting to a value other than the default
value of A is only necessary if you are installing two Renovia
Systems on the same electrical service, or on separate electrical
services that have wiring routed closely enough that coupling of
the HomePlug signals between them becomes possible. This
may occur in a situation in which multiple units in a Multiple
Dwelling Unit property have a Renovia installation. By setting
the systems on two different channels, the systems can operate
independently of each other. This setting only affects the
channel of communication for the Main Source Hub. The Zone
Amplifiers are set for the HomePlug Channel separately, (see
Section 5.0, Setting the Zone HomePlug Channel).
