Changing the Column Type
Columns
A “column” in a seeTouch
R
QS multi-column wallstation is defined as a group of (typically adjacent)
buttons that all perform a similar logic feature.
Column Type
The “type” of a column determines the logic of how that column operates.
To change your wallstation’s column types using Column Type Change Mode:
1. Enter APM.
2. Simultaneously press and hold any button of the column in APM along with any “Lower” button
for 3 seconds.
3. Once the hold time elapses, all backlights of that column will remain solid on and the status LEDs
will blip in the following pattern (each column type is listed below and explained in subsequent
pages):
• 1 blip every 8 seconds = “Scene with OFF” column type (not an option for 1B column)
• 2 blips every 8 seconds = “Scene” column type
• 3 blips every 8 seconds = “Zone Toggle” column type
• 4 blips every 8 seconds = “Partition” column type
• 5 blips every 8 seconds = “Shade” column type (not an option for 1B column)
• 6 blips every 8 seconds = “Shade Toggle” column type
• 7 blips every 8 seconds = “Shade Group” column type (not an option for 1B column)
• 8 blips every 8 seconds = “Panic”, “Sequence”, or “Timeclock” column type (2B columns only)
• 9 blips every 8 seconds = “Fine Tune” column type (2B columns only)
• 10 blips every 8 seconds = (Although the device allows the user to select this column type, it
currently has no functionality. Do not use.)
Note:
Wallstation will skip certain blip patterns depending on the capabilities of the wallstation being
currently programmed (Ex. A column must have only 2 buttons in order to be programmed with the
“Sequence” or “Fine Tune” column types).
Note:
While a 1B column will accept “Scene” column type and will not accept “Scene With Off” column
type, a 1B scene column always toggles between the programmed Scene and Scene Off.
