7.2 Confirming Settings
Choose to work in the AT ONCE or the CONFIRM mode (see section 7.2.1).
When the
VS-44HDxl
operates in the AT ONCE mode, pressing an
OUT-IN
combination implements the switch immediately. In the CONFIRM mode, the
TAKE button must be pressed to authorize the switch.
In the AT ONCE mode, you save time as execution is immediate and actions
require no user confirmation. However, no protection is offered against changing
an action in error.
In the CONFIRM mode:
You can key-in several actions and then confirm them by pressing the
“ TAKE” button to simultaneously activate the multiple switches
Every action requires user confirmation, protecting against erroneous
switching
Execution is delayed until the user confirms the action
Note that after ten seconds the
VS-44HDxl
will go to standby mode and the
buttons and the 7-segment display will illuminate less brightly.

button illuminates).

2. Press the illuminated TAKE button to toggle from the CONFIRM mode
back to the AT ONCE mode.
