Groups
The VARIO2 IP PoE illuminator is configured so that it can work individually or as
part of a group of illuminators. This group control gives the user more flexibility
and capability in terms of how they want their illuminators to operate.
Illuminators can respond to Group commands in three ways and each illuminator
can be configured individually to respond to Photocell or External Input triggers:
• Ignore group commands – the illuminator will ignore all group commands
• Yes, Send and Receive – the illuminator can both originate a group command
and will respond to group commands
• Yes, Receive only – the illuminator will only respond to group commands
Some examples of illuminator functionality in a group:
• All illuminators to come ON at the same time and go OFF at the same time
• One illuminators External Input trigger can turn all illuminators in the group
ON (E.g. Car park entrance / Alarm)
• The Group Override function on the Home Page allows the user to take
instant control of the group of illuminators all at the same time
Group Name
An illuminator can be associated with a new or existing group to enable it to
follow group commands from the photocell input and / or External Input. A new
group name can be created by typing into the “Enter Group Name” box or the
illuminator can be allocated to an existing group by selecting an existing group
from the drop down list of groups.
