: Q
You create a new MAINTAIN group or add new
relays to an existing MAINTAIN group and EXIT .
Upon re-entering the group, you notice it has
changed itself into MAINTAIN+TIMER . Why?
: A
One or more of the relays in the group
are also in another MAINTAIN+TIMER or
MAINTAIN+BLINK group which has assigned
it or them a timer value . Since the timer value
is written into the relay properties, it is carried
over into the new MAINTAIN group .
: Q
What does MAINTAIN mean in reference to a
wall switch?
: A
It means that the switch concerned is a contact
closure switch like an ordinary wall switch . When
one flips the switch UP the contacts close and
stay closed and the lights come ON . (They are
MAINTAINED that way . ) When one flips the
switch down the contacts open and the lights
go off . Note that both making the circuit and
breaking the circuit (from the switch to the
contact input) causes the relay(s) to react .
: Q
What does MOMENTARY mean in reference
to a switch?
: A
It means that it is expecting a pulse as would be
received from a push button . The command is
executed on contact closure . The contact opening
does nothing .
