Stand-Alone SS1
Stand-Alone applications typically use the SS1 as a Control Station/
Connection Hub for the XP8.4 Wireless Color Touch Panel. These applica-
tions can provide IR routing in order to control local IR sources (not part of
an ELAN Multi-Room Controller-based system), one-way RS-232 devices
that are not part of an ELAN Multi-Room Controller-based system, relay
controlled devices, and perform intelligent ON/OFF commands through the
Sense Inputs. A Wireless Access Point is used to relay information from the
XP8.4 Wireless Color Touch Panel to the SS1.
Zone SS1
Zone applications consist of a wireless XP8.4 Wireless Color Touch Panel
utilizing the SS1 as a Connection Hub when controlling a zone of an ELAN
Multi-Room Controller-based system. ZONE applications can provide IR
routing in order to control local IR sources, IR zone control, IR control of
system-wide sources, one-way (and two-way control if part of a System SS)
of RS-232 devices, relay device control, and perform intelligent ON/OFF com-
mands through the Sense Inputs. A Wireless Access Point is used to relay
information from an XP8.4 to the SS1.
System SS1
System applications are used when an SS1 is performing tasks outside of
being the control center for the XP8.4 Wireless Color Touch Panel. Often,
a System SS1 is linked to an ELAN Multi-Room Controller-based system.
These applications can control local IR sources, system-wide IR sources,
ELAN Multi-Room Controllers, one and two-way RS-232 devices, relay
controlled devices, and perform intelligent ON/OFF commands through the
Sense Inputs.
