NOTES
1. OUTPUT commands can be used to control system lighting zones, individual shades, and contact
closed outputs.
2. The Level/Lift/Tilt is taken as a percentage.
3. The Fade and Delay time are optional. When not used the system will use a one second fade time
with zero second delay. The minimum fade and delay time is 0 seconds. The maximum fade and
delay time is 4 hours. For shade outputs, the Fade parameter has no effect (since shades have
fixed speeds) but it is required when specifying an optional delay.
4. Fractional seconds “SS.ss” will be rounded down to the nearest quarter second. For example, if a
fade time is specified as 1.45 seconds a value of 1.25 seconds will be used.
5. When a Raise / Lower command is issued, the output’s level will continue to go towards high end /
low end until a Stop command is received.
6. The default time is one second.
