8.80. LIG -- Configure Logic Input Pins Into a Group

This conmmand configures which logic input pins are in a group. Logic groups allow events to happen when certain combinations of inputs are present on the logic pins. For example, if a logic group was defined that consisted of three logic input pins (pin 1, pin 2, and pin 3), then a total of eight

combinations (23) are possible, and a command or macro can be assigned to each combination. This feature is particularly useful in room-combining applications. It can also be used to make controls based on rotary switches that output binary, BCD, or Gray codes.

Commands can be assigned to the configurations of a logic group via the LIN command.

This command is saved to global non-volatile memory and is not part of a preset. Its value is saved each time it is changed. It will retain its value after power-down. Since this command writes to non- volatile memory, there will be a delay before an acknowledgment is returned.
