6.5.3.2 Staircase lighting function
Parameter name Conditions Settings
Staircase lighting time Staircase lighting function = enabled
hh:mm:ss
( 00:01:00 )
Duration of staircase lighting time.
This time is the one shown on the time diagram in the descriptive section of this manual as “Ts”.
Manual off Staircase lighting function = enabled enabled / disabled
When enabled
, it allows an “Off” command to terminate the lighting time.
The “Off” command can be sent at any time with the same effect, including when the pre-warning is
activated.
Retriggerable Staircase lighting function = enabled enabled / disabled
When enabled, it allows a new
“On” command to restart the timing.
The “On” command can be sent at any time with the same effect, including when the pre-warning is
activated.
Pre-warning Staircase lighting function = enabled enabled / disabled
Activates the pre-warning feature.
For a detailed description see the corresponding section of this manual.
Pre-warning
–
Pre-warning time
Staircase lighting function = enabled
Pre-warning = enabled
hh:mm:ss
( 00:00:10 )
Specifies how much time before the end of the timing a pre-warning light interruption will be carried out.
The time interval specified includes the interruption time.
The maximum value is 18:12:15.
This time is the one shown on the time diagram in the
descriptive section of this manual as “Tp-w”.
Pre-warning
–
Interruption time
Staircase lighting function = enabled
Pre-warning = enabled
hh:mm:ss.fff
( 00:00:00.500 )
Specifies the duration of the pre-warning interruption.
This time is the one shown on
the time diagram in the descriptive section of this manual as “Ti”.

The pre-warning time should be shorter than the staircase time (T
P-W
< T
S
) and the
interruption time shorter than the pre-warning time (T
I
< T
P-W
).

Time delays have no influence on the staircase function (if enabled).

A staircase timing in progress will be terminated by a reset of the actuator (bus voltage
recovery or ETS reprogramming) or by using any function that affects the output (i.e.
normal switching, forced control, logic function, scene recall), even if the function does
not cause an actual change in the output value.

On a forced termination, the value of the output remains unchanged; the same that is
true also if the termination occurs during pre-warning time.
