InterTecho actuators 

 

 

 

 

The commands have the following meaning: 

 

 

Turn  on

:  Turns  the  actuators  on.  In  case  of  dimmer  actuators  the  dim 

procedure can be started and stopped by this command.  

 

Turn off

: Turns the actuator off. 

 

Toggle

:  Turns  the  actuator  on  and  off  alternating.  So  you  can  control  a 

switch actuator comfortable by a single button on the remote control only.  

 

Rotate left/right

: These commands are for electric blinds. They turn on and 

off  the  actuator  for  a  short  moment  (ca.  160  ms),  so  that  the  blinds  are 

rotated by a small angle. 

 

Dim to

: Is available for code learning actuators for dimming function only. A 

percentage value for the brightness can be selected in the range of 0-100% 

in steps of 6.25%. If the slider is moved the actuator will reflect the current 

light level in real time, so you can directly check the result. 

 

Select

:  Selects  the  actuator  for  actions  which  are  initiated  later  without 

changing the state of the actuator. 

 

Note

:  The  commands  rotate  left/right  are  allowed  to  be  used  only  if  the  motor 

supports  short  operation  periods.  Otherwise  using  these  commands  can  cause 

overload resulting in damage to the motor. 

 

 

 

 10 

Pauses 

 

Pauses in the range of 100 ms up to 25 seconds can be inserted into a light scene. It 

is possible to add multiple pauses one after another to extend the total period of time. 

 

 

 

Note: 

During the execution of a pause no other light control signals are processed. 

 

 

Editing a light scene 

 

After one or multiple actuators have been added to a light scene it will show up in the 

table like: 

 

 

 

To move an actuator within a light scene just mark it with the left mouse button, keep 

the button pressed and moved it to its new position. If you move the actuator along
