5.   OPERATION MODE

5.1 OPERATION DISPLAY

When the clock is displayed the Wireless Controller is in operation mode. It is from this mode the known modules can
be controlled through either groups or scenes.

5.1.1 SLAVE WIRELESS CONTROLLER INDICATION

When an underscore is shown in the left bottom corner the Wireless Controller, it is a secondary Controller with the
limitations mentioned in these instructions.

5.1.2 SCENE INDICATION.

From the operation mode press the scene  button                     .    The display will change to:

This indicates that the next button press (number pad) will be used to control a scene (if any available).

5.1.3 LOW BATTERY INDICATION.

This message indicates that it is time to replace the batteries. It will go away when the batteries have been replaced.

5.2 USING OPERATION MODE

Operation mode is the mode where the following display is indicated:

This mode is also the idle mode to which the Controller returns after performing operations.  Push OK or C button to
activate display if asleep (blank).

In this chapter the functions available in operation mode will be described.

5.2.1 CONTROLLING GROUPS USING SPEED BUTTONS.

Groups are controlled by either using the buttons 1 through 6 or by using the navigation buttons (‘<‘ or ‘>’) to select
the group that is to be controlled.  Note that dimming a group never displays any failures that might have happened
during transmission as does an ON/OFF command.

5.2.1.1 PRESSING A SPEED BUTTON BRIEFLY.

The buttons marked 1 through 6 are used for speed access to the first 6 groups or scenes.  Pressing the speed button
briefly will toggle the selected group on or off. Even if the Controller is powered down (display is off) a press on a speed
button will toggle the group.  The display will show the following message:
