Chapter 7: Machine-to-Machine Control
The Machine-to-Machine Control feature allows you to control out-
puts of other Skymetry WTU-14 units (or outputs within the same
unit) based on input conditions. For example, you can switch an out-
put on a WTU-14 unit several miles away if an input on a different
unit is greater than a specified value. The output being controlled
must be set to manual mode. Up to 8 machine-to-machine control
events can be configured per WTU-14 unit. Note that when an input
condition causes an output to change state, a separate event must be
programmed to make the output change back. For example, if you
program output #1 to turn on when input #5 is greater than 60, the
output will not turn off when the input drops below 60. A separate
event must be programmed to make the output turn off when the
input is less than 60.
To program Machine-to-Machine Control click on the Machine-to-
Machine Tab. The following screen will appear:
