the lights, and then an input set as "Zone" in the message addressee fi eld, entering zone number 5.
ZONE: the function enables control of several outputs on different modules. This setting is used to send a command which switches
off all the lights in an apartment or lowers all the shutters, etc... To do this, the outputs must be assigned to the same zone or group
on the output settings screen.
For example, if you want to control all the lights, one zone (for example ZONE 5) must be assigned to all the outputs connected to
the lights, and then an input set as "Zone" in the message addressee fi eld, entering zone number 5.
SUPERVISOR: the supervisor function sends a command directly to the system supervisors, for example Planux Manager, Serial
Bridge, Minitouch. This command is used by the supervisors to activate internally stored commands, or to use the input status for
logic rules or other functions.
For example, if you want to use a button to activate a scenario stored in the memory of a Planux Manager or Minitouch supervisor,
you must set the input in this way. This also applies if you want to use an input status for a logic or link function on the serial bridge.
TYPE OF MESSAGE
NORMAL:
the module sends a command to the addressee, controlling the output for which it was programmed.
For example, if you send a normal command to a timed output, the output will be activated for the set time; if you send a normal
command to an output set as bistable, the output inverts its status.
SET: the module sends a “forcing ON” command and the output is then activated independently of the programming, remaining
active until a new command is sent. The SET command does not affect outputs set as "Rolling shutter".
For example, if you want to send an activation command to a group of lights, the SET command type must be set; this switches
on any lights which are off and leaves those already switched on running. If a SET is sent to an output set as timed, the output is
activated and will remain active until a new command is received.
RESET: the module sends a “forcing OFF” command and the output is then deactivated independently of the programming,
remaining inactive until a new command is sent. If the RESET command is sent to an output programmed as "Rolling shutter", the
relay is not activated and the shutter to which it is connected will not move.
For example, to send a deactivation command to a group of lights, the RESET command type must be set; this switches off any
lights which are on and leaves those already switched off inactive.
ALARM: this is used to send a deactivation command to an electrovalve output which takes priority over commands arriving from
thermostats, temperature sensors or Minitouch devices. This command is usually used to deactivate a climate zone if a window is
opened, to prevent the heating or air conditioning from running unnecessarily.
BADGE HOLDER: this command is used to activate an output confi gured as "Room power". When the input is opened, after the time
set for the output, the output reopens.
For example, in a hotel room the badge holder is connected to an input confi gured as "Badge holder". This means when you enter
the room and insert the badge, the output set as "Room power" is opened and the power supply in the room is activated. At the
output, after the badge is removed, the timer starts counting down a room exit period. Once this has elapsed, the power supply
output is deactivated.
