NOTES
1. Fractional seconds “SS.ss” will be rounded down to the nearest quarter second. For example, if a
fade time is specified as 1.31 seconds a value of 1.25 seconds will be used.
2. The Fade and Delay time are optional. When not used the system will use a one second fade time
with zero second delay.
3. The system will report the target level of a dimmer while it is fading from one level to another.
The actual level is not transmitted while dimming between levels.
Example: If the “Over Sink” (1) dimmer is at 20% and is then commanded to go to 100% by
sending #OUTPUT, 1, 1, 100 the response from the system will be ~OUTPUT, 1, 1, 100.00
4. The system will not report a level while the output is flashing, it will instead report that it is flashing.
5. Default flash every second, unless fade time is specified (flash period is 2x fade time).
6. To stop a dimmer from flashing, send it to a valid level.
