Outputs - Actions
Outputs of the Room Automation Panel can be a feedback about the executed event (e.g. after the button
press the button LED lights) or a control signal to the other device. Outputs can be set in the
Software Control - Lightware Device Controller
(LDC) software.
4.4.1. Button LED Configuration
Button LEDs are customizable feedback of the user interaction or any input which is set as a condition. The
LED behavior takes into consideration of the status of the
interaction states
. For more details about it, see
section. The button LEDs can be configured separately.
LED states
Six different LED behaviors are available:
Off / Low brightness / High brightness / Blinking / Slow blinking /Sine pulse
Default LED intensity
Low brightness and High brightness intensity can be customized in 0-5 level scale where 0 means no light,
5 means maximum intensity.
The factory default value of the low brightness: 2
The factory default value of the high brightness: 5
This setting is available in the LDC in the
section or with LW3 protocol commands (for
section).
Default LED function
The button LED can get a
default
function where two cases are defined:
▪
LED function for true state (when the
interaction state
is
true
)
Example:
Button1 is in Momentary operation mode, so when it is pressed, the interaction state changes true.
If the LED function for true state is on, the button LED will turn on while it is pressed.
▪
LED function for false state (when the
interaction state
is
false
)
Example:
Button2 Button3, Button4 are in the same radio group. When Button2 is pressed, its interaction
state changes true and the other's interaction states change false. If the LED function for false state is off
(by all buttons in the group), the LEDs of Button3 and Button4 will turn off.
Momentarily LED function
The Button LED can get a
momentarily
function. This overwrites the
default
function for a while. Duration
time has to be set if the LEDs
momentarily
function is off / low bright /high bright. Blinking number is
required when the LEDs
momentarily
function is blinking.
LED function settings has to be done with
Software Control - Lightware Device Controller
software (in
section) or with LW3 protocol commands (for more details see
section).
4.4.2.
Rotary LEDs
Rotary LEDs always display the actual position of the rotary. For more details about it see
section.
4.4.3.
Serial Message Sending
The RAP-B511 can send serial messages via RS-232 port in order to control the other devices. This function
can be set as an action which executed after the trigger condition (e.g. buttonpress).
Preparations and Settings
▪
The RS-232 port settings (baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits) of the connected serial devices must
be the same.
▪
The RS-232 port of the RAP-B511 must be in
Disconnect
mode
. (If the target device is also Lightware
unit, take care of the its operation mode, too)
▪
Pay attention to the correct serial cabling (connector pinout). For more details about the cabling, see
The configuration is available in
and the

sending is available in the
