One Button Smooth Scroll" Dimmer Circuit With One Or More Momentary Input - Maretron M-Power CLMD16 Configuration Manual

____________________________________________________________
Note:
Because a third party MFD using 127500 Load Controller PGN or any equipment running
Maretron's N2KView® software, by default, will have direct access to control all three ECBs
shown in this example, the "Circuit Sequence" shown in this example will only operate via
"Discrete I/O 5". The same "Circuit Sequence" behavior may be able to be replicated inside the
internal logic of the equipment having direct control accessibility (N2KView®) or if this logic
needs to be accessed by third party MFD, "Manual Mode" can be enabled to each ECB
severing this direct control access. A combinatory "Logic Element" can be the "Input Signal" of
each "Timer Element" to enable the same "Circuit Sequence" behavior via "Network Input 5" as
long as the signal is a momentary type of Input Signal. The mapping for this exact circuit would
look as shown below:
"One Button Smooth Scroll" Dimmer Circuit
with One or More Momentary Input
In this example there is a load called "Galley Lights" that can have one or more momentary
inputs to toggle the lights On / Off if the momentary input is turned On with a "Quick Press". If
the momentary input is "Held", the lights will dim up/ dim down (PWM up / down) as long as the
input is On or "Held". If the input is "Held" and then released at the desired dim level (PWM
level) the dim level is retained for each time the load is toggled On using a "Quick Press" until
the next time the input is "Held". This feature is obtained by the use of PWM "Counter" also
known as a "Counter Element". See following steps to setup this circuit type for one or more
control points.
