10.1 Writing Macros
Macro steps can be one of 4 types:
Action
Pause
Delay
Goto
Can be a simple
command including
Scenes, Fades etc.
Can also include
“Macro Control”,
“Mapping Control”
for more complex
programming.
A running Macro will
stop at a Pause and
remain there until it
hears a Continue.
The Macro can wait at
this step for a defined
period of time. Useful
when programming
PIR timeouts etc.
The Macro can be
sent to a defined step
in this or another
Macro.
10.2 Triggering Macros
Macros can be triggered in several ways. Most commonly:
-
Wired device direct Map (WCM/WAVFR/etc.)
-
HUB Mapping
-
HUB Event
Once a macro trigger is sent it will perform one of four different functions to a Macro:
Start
Stop
Pause
Continue
This will cause the
Macro to start from
the beginning (Step 1)
regardless of its
current position in the
Macro.
This will cause a
Macro that is already
running to Stop
running and return to
Step 1.
This will cause a
Macro to Pause at
whatever step it is
currently running.
This will cause the
Macro to continue
from a Pause state,
performing the step
immediately after this
and proceeded.
NB
It is also possible to “Enable” and “Disable” Macros (or parts of Macros) via the “Macro Control”
Action.
11 Holiday Mode
Holiday mode allows the HUB to record normal lighting activity in a property over a period
of time. This can then be replayed while the property is empty in order to give a realistic
impression that it is occupied.
Holiday mode has three states:
-
Record
: Used to create a log of the used of the system.
-
Playback
: Used when the house is unoccupied to replay the information gathered in
“Record”.
-
Idle
: Used when the system is in normal occupied operation and no recording is
being made.
