<h1>Light Control</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Enter the light system name for the light you wish to control in the box to right of
|
|
"light:".</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For example, entering 678 and by pressing either the On or Off button, you should be able
|
|
to change the state of light number 678 on the layout.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Another example, a valid light system name for PowerLine devices could be PL9. Then by
|
|
pressing either the On or Off button, you should be able to change the state of light on the
|
|
layout.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Another example, a valid light system name could be IL123 which is internal light number
|
|
123. Pressing On or Off will only change the state of the internal light and will not change
|
|
a light on the layout.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>See <a href="../../../../html/doc/Technical/Names.shtml">Names</a> under general help for
|
|
more information.</p>
