Set "All

ramp time of 1 second
In the Room Scenes box
click on the top item, "All on scenes" and note that all of
the scenes are selected except the Off scene. Hold down the control
key (Ctrl) and click the "Off" scene. Now all scenes are selected. Use the elevator on
the Rooms list box to move to the top of the menu. Select the "Back
Hallway". Note that it tells you that no lights exist for this room. Use the elevator to
scroll to the bottom of the list of rooms. Hold down the Shift
key and click the "Pantry". Note that all rooms are now selected.
Also note that when more than one room is
selected, the list of lights change from the name of the light to "All
Dimmable" and "All Non-Dimmable" lights. This is because
usually you want them to have different delay and ramp times.
|
|
Click on the "O
ms" under "Ramp" in the first row - the "All Dimmable"
lights (non-dimmable lights do not have a delay time because they are
just an on/off switch). This will bring up the keypad shown at the right. Enter 1000 ms into the
keypad by clicking on 1, 0, 0, 0. Note that the ramp times and delay times
are in milliseconds. Click the "Enter"
button |
|
|
You have just changed all of the ramp times
for all dimmable lights in the house to 1 second.
However, new lights that are added will be
added with their default ramp time of 0 seconds. Therefore, you would
not normally do this step until all lights had been added to the floor
plan. |

to anything. Click
on the "+" to the left of "Serial Port 1". Click on the "+"
to the left of "List of commands sent & received" so you
