4. Device Concept
4.2. Inputs 1. - User Interactions
The operation of the RAP-B511 series is based on user interactions such as button press, or turn the rotary.
These are the main triggers (or inputs) of the control functions. They can be quickly and easily customize
in
UI Config Menu
of the
Software Control - Lightware Device Controller
(LDC) software.
4.2.1. Buttons
The RAP-B511 has 11 configurable buttons, and two main button states
are defined: Pressed and Released.
Operation mode is an attribution of the button, which declares the button
behavior when it is pressed or released. Three different operation modes
are available: momentary, toggle and radio group (1-5).
The chosen operation mode defines how the interaction state changes when the button is pressed or released
(see the details about it in the table on the right). The true or false value of the interaction state triggers the
button LED function and the desired action.
Momentary operation mode
Simple button function, when the button is pressed, the action will be executed.
Example: Roll down the shades with keeping the button pressed. When the button is released, the shades stop.
Explanation: When the button is pressed, the interaction state changes true, when the button is released, the
interaction state changes false.
Toggle operation mode
This button type toggles between two states.
Example: Turn on and off the light with one button.
Explanation: When the button is pressed, the interaction state changes true, when the button is released, the
interaction state does not change. When the button is pressed once again, the interaction state changes false.
Radio group operation mode
It defines the assigned radio group of the button. One button can belong to one group at the same time. Five
groups are available, one group may contain max. 11 buttons.
Example: Select video input on a crosspoint or switcher. One input can be active at the same time.
Explanation: When the button is pressed, the interaction state changes true and the interaction state of the
other group members are false. When the button is released, the interaction state does not change.
