The option fields function as follows:
DEV Selects the RDM device. Devices are numbered from 1. A value of zero is displayed as ALL
and indicates that all RDM devices are being controlled. This is a very powerful feature but
should be treated with caution as it allows, for example, all start addresses to be set to the
same value. NB. The device number is enumerated during discovery and numbers are
allocated in the order in which devices are discovered. The order may change when
discovery is next executed.
SUB Selects the sub-device. An RDM device may have a number of sub-devices and
Commissioner is able to access 999 sub-devices. There are two special cases of sub-device.
Zero accesses the root device. ALL indicates that all sub-devices are being controlled.
NAME When an individual device or sub-device is addressed, the name of the device or sub-
device is displayed here. If ALL devices and/or ALL sub-devices is selected, BROADCAST is
displayed.
The following example shows how this is used. We are connected to an Artistic Licence sunDial
dimmer.
