SEND_STRINGs
The Radia supports a large number of strings, which can be used to allow interaction with a person using
a terminal. These strings remain primarily to facilitate backward compatibility for other AMX lighting
equipment.

Channels (Cont.)
Channel(s) Function Description
144 Ramp all dimmers to 0% Ramps all dimmers to 0% at the default ramp time rate. Will be
turned on at any time when all dimmers are at 0%, will be turned
off (if on) otherwise. Defines all dimmers for the purposes of
presets.
145 Ramp active preset up Ramps all dimmers up that are defined in the last recalled
preset at the default ramp time rate. Will be turned off when all
preset associated dimmers reach 100%.
Note: If a preset is saved to 0%, then circuit will remain off even
if ramped up.
146 Ramp active preset down Ramps all dimmers down that are defined in the last recalled
preset at the default ramp time rate. Will be turned off when all
preset associated dimmers reach 0%.
147 Dry closure input #1 -
Emergency Feedback only. Represents the state of the contact closure
input. AXLink changes of this channel are INPUT/OUTPUT
changes thus providing PUSH/RELEASE and feedback
capability within the NetLinx program.
148 Dry closure input #2 -
Failsafe Feedback only. Represents the state of the contact closure
input. AXLink changes of this channel are INPUT/OUTPUT
changes thus providing PUSH/RELEASE and feedback
capability within the NetLinx program.
155 All level undefine Undefines all dimmers for the purposes of storing a preset.
