For example:

Status of a Unit

To see the status of an X-10 or ALC unit, from the control menu, press the ' # ' key. The last command along with any time
(hh:mm:ss) remaining on a timed command will be displayed.
At this point, one of the menu choices may be entered or the ' * ' or ' # ' key may be pressed to redisplay the menu.
Note: If an X-10 signal is received over the powerline, HMS 950 will automatically update the status of the X-10 unit.

Internal Flags

The easiest way to define a flag it to refer to it as a "virtual relay". A flag can be in one of three separate states: On, Off, or set to
a value between 0 and 255. If a flag has a value of 1-255, it is considered "On". If a flag has a value of 0 it is considered "Off".
Flags are a powerful programming tool that can be used in several ways to accomplish advanced programming routines. Any
Flag can also be used as a counter. Counters can be incremented, decremented, or set to a specific value (0 to 255).
When a counter is decremented to zero, the "When Unit Off" macro is executed. A counter will not decrement below zero. The
counter will, however, roll over from 255 to 0 when incremented. The "When Unit Off" macro will be executed when the counter
rolls over. This allows two counters to be cascaded to form a larger counter.
When the counter is incremented from 0 to 1, the "When Unit On" macro will now execute. This will allow you to execute a
command when the Flag is incremented (counting up) from zero.
The Set command is used to set the counter to a value from 0 to 255. No macros are executed when the counter is set to zero or
when the counter is changed from zero using the set command. This allows a counter to be reset without executing macros or
programs associated with the counter counting to zero. Turn the Flag On or Off to have the associated macro execute. When the
Flag is turned Off, its value is set to zero (0). When the Flag is turned On, its value is set to one (1). The counter is considered
On for program conditions if it is nonzero (1-255).
Flags can be turned Off, On, Decremented (DEC), Incremented (INC), Set, and Timed ON/OFF.

Controlling Outputs

The HMS 950 has eight outputs that can be used to switch relays. Outputs 1-8 are controlled as Unit Numbers 65-72,
respectively. If the Interior Horn is configured as a "General Purpose" output, Unit Number 73 is used to control the output. If
the Exterior Horn is configured as a "General Purpose" output, Unit Number 74 is used to control the output. In this
configuration, Unit Numbers 73 and 74 should not be used as "Flags".
These 12 VDC voltage outputs are connected directly to the HMS 950 and not through a module. If you have something
connected to these outputs, such as a sprinkler system, your dealer will explain its operation.
Outputs cannot be brightened or dimmed and are not affected by All ON or All Off commands.

All On / Off

The All On/Off menu is used to turn all lights on (X-10), all units on (ALC), and all units off (X-10 & ALC). It is also used to set
Scenes, issue a Scene On command, and issue a Scene Off command to switches that support Leviton Scene Control. From the
top-level display or from the main menu, press the 4 (ALL) key on the console keypad.
