Record/Program Mode

Program mode allows adjustment of the consecutive range of presets and zones assigned to the
station by allowing you to set the starting preset or zone, respectively. Enter Program mode by
pressing and holding the [Record / Program mode] button for three seconds.

The Function switch determines whether edits are made to the consecutive range of presets or
zones. Program adjustment is not available while in Custom Mode. In the case of the 4-button
station, the DIP switch selection also determines what is programmed to the station.

Record allows snapshot of all current output levels into the designated preset for playback.
Reference

Record Preset below

.

Note:

Program mode only affects station behaviors when the Function switch is set to

Preset or Zone, and does not affect Custom.

Program Preset Start

1.

Set the station Function switch to its highest position of Preset.

2.

Press and hold the [Record / Program mode] button for three seconds to enter Program
mode. The “Mode” LED illuminates (steady amber) and the first preset button LED for the
station flashes the current (first) preset controlled. (For example, if the first preset
controlled is preset 3, the button LED will flash 3 times.)

3.

Push any station button to increase the starting preset number by one, the count always
begins at 1. The station will update the LED indication, flashing the LED to reflect the new
preset number. (For example, pushing the station button eight times will set the first
preset for the station to preset 8). All station preset controls will be consecutively assigned
beginning with the specified count.

4.

When the desired preset number is set, press and release the [Record / Program mode]
button to save the new setting. The “Mode” LED turns off and the station LEDs will display
the new setting before returning to normal operation.

Note:

To change the preset button assignment to a lower number than what is

currently set, exit Program mode then reenter Program mode. The steps of exiting and
reentering Program mode restart the preset count at 1.

Record Preset

Elaho Inspire Stations provide recording (snapshot) of presets using the current output levels for
the controlled zones in the space. The station must be set up for Preset control prior to
recording.

1.

Press the [Record / Program mode] button, an amber LED will blink during a 10 second
record period.

2.

Push the button of the preset control you would like to record (snapshot). This stores
current levels to the designated preset, exits record mode, and activates the newly
recorded preset.
