identity code in the software program and is identified by the two-digit hexadecimal
number (i.e., 10, 20, 30, ..., F0). "10" is shown as an example in the illustration and
happens to be the default. The down and up arrow buttons decrease and increase the
RF ID most significant digit by one, respectively. For more information for use with
Cresnet System, refer to "Touchpanel as Part of Cresnet System" on page 9.
NOTE: Crestron recommends that 00 not be selected as a valid RF ID.
Crestron offers an internal scheduler feature built into the touchpanel. There are
actually two parts to the internal scheduler: developing a button sequence and
scheduling a button sequence/function. Each part can be utilized independently of
the other or combined. A sequence differs from the macros created from the Control
pull-down menu, because the end user can assign actions to the buttons. With proper
and careful project design, the end-user can easily make adjustments to the system to
better suit his personal needs and way of life. Furthermore, the end-user can schedule
an event so that it can begin at any given date and time and reoccur as programmed.
An event is defined as the actions initiated by one sequence or a single button
function.
DEFINITIONS:
Function: A single button press (join number 1 through 999) which typically triggers
one or more commands to be sent from the control system.
Sequence: A series of button presses that can be recorded and played back in real
time.
Event: A scheduleable action, that is, either a sequence of button presses or a direct
button press (function).
Schedule: A list of events that have been designated to run on specific dates at a
specific time.
Button Sequence Development
The purpose of developing a button sequence is to build a consecutive order of
preselected buttons that run in real time when a single programmed button is
touched. You determine and assign the join number for the programmed button from
a range of reserved join numbers. The buttons in the sequence can be chosen from
any page in the project.
There are two buttons with reserved join numbers that must be touched when
developing a sequence. These buttons exist on the Sequences + Scheduler page in
the SmarTouch Wizard templates, "st-1550/c basic template.vtp" (included with the
Crestron database), shown to the left of this paragraph. Copy or redraw these buttons
to another page so that the end user can use them as needed. One button, "Start
Sequence Learn", initiates the "learning" function and the other, "Finish/Cancel
Learn", terminates it. Complete the following steps to assign a programmable button
to a button sequence. It is assumed that the "Start Sequence Learn", "Finish/Cancel
Learn", and programmable buttons as well as the buttons to be included in the
sequence exist in the project available to the end user.
