4. Device Concept
4.2.2. Rotary
The jog dial knob is designed for volume control (in a 16-level scale), but it can be used for other controlling
purposes, too.
Turning left and right the rotary changes the volume value from 0 to 16. The volume values are the conditions,
which are assigned to the control commands (e.g. SET /MEDIA/PORTS/VIDEO/O2/ANALOGAUDIO.
VolumedB=-96\x0d\x0a). When the rotary reaches the proper position, the
action will be executed.
The control command can be sent over RS-232 or Ethernet (in this case,
the IP address of the target device is needed).
LWR Volume Control Schema supports to load the LW3 command list
automatically for controlling the volume (and the mute/unmute state)
of the Lightware devices. Choose the proper schema (see more details
about the compatibility table in Configurations of the Rotary
fill the audio port number.
Custom Volume Control Schema makes possible to configure any command for controlling a third-party device.
Knob press toggles between the mute and the unmute states. The When Custom schema is loaded, press and
release event can be configure for any purpose.

4.3. Inputs 2. - Automation Options
The below-listed features give an opportunity to "automate" the control system, and the Room Automation
Panel reacts the inputs automatically, the user intervention is not necessary.
These inputs can be set as a condition in the
Controller (LDC) software. They trigger the desired actions.
4.3.1. Real-Time Clock
The real-time clock feature supports to store the exact time in the device. The time can be programmed as
a condition in the event manager: single and weekly repetitive events may be configured with this function.
Local time elements (years, months, days, etc.) help to customize the proper timing of the actions.
A BR1632A battery is supplied with the product, it ensures the fluent operation of the built-in timer while the
device is not powered.
ATTENTION! The battery is designed for life-long usage in a fixed installation, so it cannot be replaced!
