other fitted in Reception.
When starting the control unit for the first time select “Partitioned system” (not part setting
system).
In the i-onEX range and i-on40 control units Partition 1 is always the common area. Use
Partition 1 for the Foyer, Kitchen and Toilet. Partition 2 can be used for the Factory and
Loading Bay. Partition 3 can be used for the Office and Reception. To make the common
