Mood with dark condition
The starting point for this step-by-step plan is a project in which all of the various inputs, outputs and actions are defined.
In this step-by-step plan, two moods are created by coupling a number of outputs to a mood control. One mood has a light/dark condition and the other has time automation with a switched socket outlet.
If you do not yet have a project, follow the steps in adding a new project and thereafter in drawing a plan or upload a background image.
Click Creation at the top of the menu.
Click on add an input.
Click on mood control in the selection list in the right-hand section of the screen.
The mood control appears in the plan.
Drag the mood control to the right place, and assign it a recognizable name.
Select an existing location from the selection list, or click on add a location if the location has not previously been defined.
Click save.
You return to the start screen of the Creation step.
You must define an action for every mood that you program. You can create a maximum of 8 moods per mood control.
Click on add an action.
The action appears in the plan as a text balloon.
Assign the action a name that relates to the mood you want to create.
Select the location of the mood control from the selection list.
Click continue.
Click on the mood in the plan.
The mood control splits into eight buttons.
Click on the first button.
A pop-up window appears.
Select a symbol from the selection list and click close.
The symbol selected will appear on the display of the mood control.
The pop-up window closes.
Click on the outputs in the plan to couple them to the action for this mood.
Click continue.
You go to the basic behaviour tab.
For each coupled output, set the desired start and stop behaviour.
Light and temperature are important factors in the creation of a mood. The software allows outputs, such as dimmable lights, roll-down shutters, Venetian blinds and thermostats, to be coupled and assigned a specific behaviour. For example, switch on dimmable lights at 50% and have the thermostat run a specific heating program.
Click continue at the bottom of the screen after you have set the start and stop behaviours.
You go to the conditions tab.
You can couple a mood to a condition. For example, whether it is light or dark outside or a specific time.
In this example, a light sensor is coupled to the mood so that the mood can only be started if it is dark outside.
Click on add a condition.
Assign the condition a name.
Click on yes (filter). The end customer starts the action manually by pressing the mood control.
Click on add an extra input.
Click on digital sensor in the selection list in the right-hand section of the screen.
The digital sensor appears in the plan.
Drag the digital sensor to the right place, and assign it a name.
Select an existing location from the selection list, or click on add a location if the location has not previously been defined.
Click save.
Click on the light sensor in the plan to couple it as a condition player to the action.
Click continue.
You go to an overview of the start and stop behaviours that apply when the condition is fulfilled (dark) and when it is not fulfilled (light).
Here, yes stands for dark. No stands for light.
Of course, you must properly adjust the light sensor to be sure that it transmits a signal when it becomes dark.
Click No.
No behaviour is defined. Given that the mood may only be activated when it is dark, you do not need to define a behaviour for when it is light outside.
Click continue.
You go to the time automation tab.
Click save.
You return to the start screen of the Creation step.
Repeat the steps until you have created all of the moods.
When you are finished, you can continue with the Cabinet set-up step or with the Realisation step..
