Situation
This step-by-step plan explains how to set up the Niko Home Control software to ensure that the indication LED stays on continuously.
Starting point
The starting point for this step-by-step plan is a project which already encompasses Project information, for which a plan was already drawn up or uploaded and where several inputs, outputs and actions have already been added.
Run through the steps in
Adding a new project
and then
Drawing a plan
or
Upload a background image
if there is no existing project.
Step 1: Add a virtual output
-
Go to Creation in the menu bar at the top.
-
Click on add a virtual output. The virtual output appears as a flag on the plan.
-
Drag the virtual output to the correct location and give it a recognisable name.
-
Choose an existing location from the list.
Click on Add a location if the location has not yet been defined.
Click on OK to return to the Creation start screen.
Step 2: Define the action's basic behaviour
-
Click on the action that was linked to the switch.
-
Click on continue to go to the Players tab.
-
Click on the virtual flag on the plan to link it to the action.
-
Click on continue to go to the Basic behaviour tab.

Remove the stop behaviour from the virtual flag.

Click on save to return to the Basic Behaviour tab.
-
Click on continue to go to the Conditions tab.
