REMOTE DEVICE INTERFACE
OVERVIEW
The Remote Device Interface (RDI) allows the
SMART System to communicate with other devices
throughmaintainormomentary switching.Each port
hasalatched(On)functionandunlatched(Off)
function, allowing the user to activate to separate
fuctions on one switch ( Example: Preset 1 for
Port1 On function and Preset Off for port 1 Off
function).This is useful for turning on and off
combines or a blackout switch for a room.
Momemtary switching can be used by setting the
On and Off functions to the same setting. (Example:
Preset 1 for Port 1 On and Off functions and Preset
Off for Port 2). A custom keypad for a master
controlpanel/swtichboardmayusemomentary
switching on the RDI to activate fuctions throughout
the SMART System.
