  1. Click Advanced Configuration in the Configuration section of PROPERTIES.

    The Advanced Configuration SENPIRIA dialogue box appears.
    The below configurations can be performed in the Advanced Configuration :

Virtual Keys

The SENPIRIA provides four virtual keys that you can program in the same manner as SENPIROA. You can assign each virtual key to an application. You can associate a macro function with each virtual key. By default, the first three virtual keys assigned are the Day Move, Night Move, Any Move and Sunset macro functions.


  1. When you click Advanced Configuration, by default, Virtual Keys section appears. The Virtual Keys 1, Virtual Keys 2, Virtual Keys 3, Virtual Keys 4, and Sensor Enable/Disable sub-section appears.

  2. Refer the below table for configurations in the Virtual Key 1 section.

Key Functions

The Key Functions tab provides advanced configuration options for key input units and sensors. For traditional C-Bus key input units, key functions are assigned to 4 press and release events. Refer the below table for the micro function and its action.

Micro Function

Action

Short Press

when you first press the input key after the debounce time.

Short release

when you release the input key before the long-press time is reached.

Long press

when you press and hold the input key longer than the long-press time.

Long release

when you release the input key after a long press.

NOTE: Each of these events corresponds to a micro function. A micro function may or may not generate C-Bus messages, depending on the micro function and the current state of the group addresses. Wired macro functions support a wide range of messaging capabilities.

Blocks

The Blocks table displays the operating configuration for the key-input portion of the unit. Each row lets you associate a lighting-compatible group with one or more input keys. In this tab, you define recall levels, timer values, and expiry key functions. You also assign LED indicators in the Blocks tab.

    • Select the group address from the Group drop-down list based on the selected Application. By default, the group for Blocks 1–4 is set to <Unused>.

    • Once you update the Application Index or Group Address, the Virtual Keys 1–4 group addresses are updated, and vice versa.

      NOTE:

      Keys Using Block MD row is disabled when a Use Same Response Settings as ‘Motion in Light (Day)’ check box is selected in Virtual Key 2 section.

  2. In Recall Lvls section:

    • Select the recall value from Recall 1 drop-down list. By default, the Recall 1 value for Blocks 1–4 is set to 100.

    • Select the recall value from Recall 2 drop-down list. By default, the Recall 2 value for Blocks 1–4 is set to 0.

    • Any changes made to Recall 1 and Recall 2 are saved to the corresponding Block and reflected under the associated Key(s).

    • Changes to Recall 1 and Recall 2 remain synchronized across Functions (Preset 1 and Preset 2), Blocks, and Keys, and vice versa.

  3. In Timer section:

    • You can increase or decrease the hours and minutes in increments of 1 in Timer 1 field.

    • You can increase or decrease the seconds in increments of 5 in Timer 1 field.

    • Select the required option from the Expiry drop-down list. By default, the Expiry value for Blocks 1–4 is set to Off Key.

    • Changes to the Timer or Expiry drop-down list are saved to the corresponding Block and reflected under the associated Key(s).

    • Changes to the Timer and Expiry settings remain synchronized with the Timer function, and vice versa.

  4. In Keys Using the Block section:

    • The following keys will be selected by default with Block and Key combination.

    • If you do not assign a Block to a Virtual Key, the Virtual Key Group Address on the Keys tab is set to Unassigned.

    • If no Block is assigned to a Virtual Key, the additional properties on the Keys tab (such as Timer, Preset, and Expiry Function) are disabled.

    • If you assign multiple Blocks to a Virtual Key, the Virtual Key Group Address on the Keys tab is set to <Multiple>.

    • If you assign a Block to multiple Virtual Keys, the Block properties apply to all selected Virtual Keys.

    • If a Virtual Key with Timer, Preset 1, or Preset 2 functions assigned has multiple Blocks allocated, the additional properties on the Keys tab are disabled.

    • After assigning multiple Blocks to a Virtual Key, if you update the Virtual Key to a single group address on the Keys tab, only the Block with the selected group address remains checked, and all other Blocks are unchecked.

    • If you click OK while an expiry time validation error exists for an occupancy function (Day Move, Night Move, Sunset, Any Move) or a Timer function, an Error pop-up is displayed.

  5. In LED Assignment section:

    • You can select any one of the Block 1 – 4 for Virtual Key 1. By default, Block 2 is selected for LED Assignment.

    • Select the Disable Indicator check box to uncheck the Block 2 LED Assignment.

  6. In Indicator Brightness section:

    • Select the required option from the Indicator Brightness drop-down list.

    • The Indicator Brightness is set according to the selected Block, and vice versa.

Power Failure

The Power Failure tab contains parameters that define how the passive infrared (PIR) cell behaves when power is restored after a failure. The Light Level Maintenance (PE Cell) section contains three radio button options for maintaining light levels based on the photo-electric cell (PE cell) lux readings.

  1. In Occupancy (PIR Cell) section, select the required radio button option. Refer the below table for option description.

    Options

    Description

    Disabled

    When you select Disabled radio button, the PE cell is disabled. When the PE cell is disabled, the Light Level Sensor input is treated as unavailable, and sets the lux level to 0.

    Enabled

    When you select Enabled radio button, the PE cell is enabled. When the Light Level Sensor becomes operational, it transmits the lux levels directly to the output unit channels.

    Restore

    When you select Restore radio button, the PE cell values prior to power loss are restored to the Light Level Sensor.

  2. Once configuration is done, click OK to save the configurations.

  3. If you click Cancel or Exit icon without saving the configuration, a confirmation pop-up appears.

  4. Click Yes to save the configuration and click No to cancel the configuration.
