Edit Device 5031NMML

Keys

This 30M series Key Input Unit has one physical input key, three unconnected input keys and four virtual (scenes only) input keys.

Physical input keys

The physical input key permit input events which originate from the local key input unit or from a remote source. You can program the input key to control electrical loads using a Lighting compatible group or a C-Bus scene.

When a building occupant turns on a switch or adjusts a dimmer, the input key transmits a group or scene command over the C-Bus network. This command includes the macro function that you previously configured in the unit configuration dialog box.

Unconnected input keys

The unconnected input key is a virtual input key within a 30M series Key Input Unit. The unconnected input key remains an unconnected input key as long as the unit is not connected to a physical key element. The 30M series Key Input Unit series are modular Key Input Units which can be configured physically to have from one to four keys.

The unconnected input key can be programmed to control electrical loads remotely using a C-Bus scene. When the unconnected input key is connected to a 30M series Key Input Unit element, the input key changes to become a physical input key.

Virtual (Scenes Only) input keys

The virtual (scenes only) input key permits input events which originate only from a remote source. You can program the virtual input key to control electrical loads using remote C-Bus scenes only.

When a building occupant turns on a switch, the input key transmits a Trigger Group level across the C-Bus network to activate a C-Bus scene. The transmitted command includes the macro function that you previously configured in the unit configuration dialog box.

Corridor Linking

Corridor linking with sensors is an effective solution for office environments. It allows employees to arrive and leave without manually switching multiple lights on or off.

Example: When employees arrive at the office in the morning, they walk through the corridor and trigger an occupancy sensor, which turns on the corridor lights. As they enter their office, the multi-sensor detects occupancy and switches on the office lights. Once the office lights are on, the corridor linking function keeps the corridor lights on.

When the last employee leave the building, they turn off the office lights. This action triggers a lighting sequence that keeps the corridor lights on, allowing them to walk safely down the corridor and exit the building. After a configured delay, the corridor lights automatically turn off.

1. In Corridor Linking section, select the Enable Corridor Linking check box.

   
   NOTE: Only if you select the Enable Corridor Linking check box, other all drop-down lists will be enabled.

Blocks

The Blocks table displays the operating configuration of the key input portion of the unit. Each row in the table allows a Lighting compatible group to be associated with one or more input keys. It is here that the recall levels, timer value and expiry key function are specified. LED indicator assignments are also specified in the Blocks tab.

1. In Block Assignments section:

   • Select the application index from the Application Index drop-down list. By default, the application index for Blocks 1–8 is set to Application 1.

   • Select the group address from the Group drop-down list based on the selected Application. By default, the group for Blocks 1–8 is set to <Unused>.

   • Once you update the Application Index or Group Address, the Key 1 to 4 and Virtual Keys 5–8 group addresses are updated, and vice versa.

     NOTE: Block Assignments, Keys Using the Block, and LED Assignment are disabled when a Scene or Fan Speed Cycle function is assigned to a Key or Virtual Key.

   • When the Timer 1 value of Blocks is less than 1 minute and you select that block as a Corridor Block and/or Office Block:

     • The Expiry Time under Corridor Block and Office Block in the Corridor Linking tab is set to 00 h : 05 m : 00 s.

     • The corresponding Block Timer 1 value is also set to 00 h : 05 m : 00 s.

   • Example: If you assign Block 3 as a Corridor Block and Block 4 as an Office Block:

     • The Expiry Time for both Corridor Block and Office Block is set to 00 h : 05 m : 00 s.
