  • Page 101 the supervisor function sends a command directly to the system supervisors, for example Planux Manager, Serial SUPERVISOR: Bridge, Minitouch. This command is used by the supervisors to activate internally stored commands, or to use the input status for logic rules or other functions. You must set the number of the supervisor input to send. For example, if you want to use a button to activate a scenario stored in the memory of a Planux Manager or Minitouch supervisor, you must set the input in this way.
