Setting up an analogue control module 0-10 V or 1-10 V

Situation

This step-by-step plan explains how to set up an analogue control module in the Niko Home Control software.

Starting point

The starting point for this step-by-step plan is a project that already encompasses Project information and for which a plan was already drawn up or uploaded.

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: Create an analogue output

  • Go to Creation in the menu bar at the top.

  • Click on add an output.
  • Click on analogue output 0-10V or analogue output 1-10V in the list of options in the right-hand window. The output appears on the plan.
  • Drag the 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 save to return to the Creation start screen.

Step 2: Change the output's values

  • If necessary, click on the icon of the output you added to the plan to change the minimum and maximum values of the output.

  • Click on save to return to the Creation start screen.

Step 3: Add an input

  • Click on add an input.
  • Click on single push button in the list of options in the right-hand window. The input appears on the plan.
  • Drag the input 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.


A specific dim button can also be used to allow for three-button dimming functionality.


Click on save to return to the Creation start screen.

Step 4: Add an action

  • Click on add an action. The action will appear as a text balloon on the plan.
  • Drag the action to a logical and appropriate place, e.g. to the relevant input or output.
  • Give the action a name.
  • Choose an existing location from the list.
    Click on Add a location if the location has not yet been defined.

  • Click on continue to go to the players tab.
  • Click on the single push button and the analogue control module on the plan to link them to the action.

Step 5: Examine the basic behaviour

  • Click on continue to go to the Basic behaviour tab.
  • Click on predefined.
  • Click on Which behaviour is this? to examine the predefined behaviour of the dimming control. A pop-up window will open.
  • Click on close to close the pop-up window.

Step 6: Define the basic behaviour

You can also define the basic behaviour yourself. 

  • Select unrestricted.
  • Enter the start and stop behaviour.

  • Click on continue.
  • Click on continue to go to the Conditions tab.
  • Click on continue to go to the Time automation tab.
  • Click on save to return to the Creation start screen.
