1. MECing:
1.1. General Description:

Enables digital signals to be entered in the bus, sensor or detector signals.
Its main function is to store events.
It has 3 low voltage (SELV) digital outputs , referred to the bus ground.
The MECing is designed to distribute the installation and installed behind
mechanisms in mechanism boxes.
This device is included in the following KITS:
KI1-6, KI1-10
Ki1-D6
KP1-6, KP1-D6
KR1, KR1-D300
KR2, KR2-D300
1.2. Technical Description:
Supply at 12Vdc
Consumption at 12Vdc: 40mA
3 potential free inputs.
Size: 45x45x10mm to install in universal mechanism box.

1.3. Operation Mode:
The MECing converts common mechanisms (switches and pushbuttons) to
smart mechanisms.
Its operation mode is very simple, you only need to press on the switch or
pushbutton connected to the MECing to execute programmed events.
1.4. Programming the Device:
As seen in the description of the Installation Modules, program the MECing by
double clicking on it (or select and right-click on it Edit Properties).
Steps to follow:
Double click on the MECing or, right-click on the MECing and select the
following option: Edit Properties:
NB: If you add a lighting KIT, the MECing is called a MECKI1.
If you add a blinds KIT, the MECing is called a MECKP1.
If you add a dimmer KIT, the MECing is called a MECKR1.

Once this has been done, the MECing programming window appears.
NB: The MECing operates according to the KIT included and how it is
programmed; see the corresponding KIT Help Manual.

The node address for the MECing is given as shown on the right, in red,
(address 40 in the image). You can use this address later to check the state of
the MECing in the Diagnostics tab after the project has been finished.
There are two buttons at the top of the screen:
New Program: Not applicable in the KITS Development System
Software.
Check Program: When you change a program it checks that what has
been programmed is correct. This command is executed by default when
new data is uploaded to devices.
In the MECing Working Modes section, you can configure it as a pushbutton or
as a switch.
The execution of programmed events is carried out by pressing the switch, or
the pushbutton connected to the MECing.
The MECing Working Modes appear on the right-hand side. They can be:
Pushbutton: This option configures the three inputs as pushbuttons, i.e.,
they respond when an up flank and another down flank are produced. In
this example, the Scripts in the top programming box correspond to the
first time you press the button and the Scripts in the bottom programming
box of each input correspond to the second time you press the button.
Switch: This option configures the three inputs as switches, i.e., they
respond when a single flank is produced. In this example, the Scripts in
the top programming box correspond to the up flank and the Scripts in
the bottom programming box for each input correspond to the down
flank.

Autorepeat: This option configures the three inputs as pushbuttons in
repetition mode. In this example, when one input is short-circuited to
Reference (closed contact), it consecutively and repeatedly sends the
programming which appears in the top and bottom boxes. In other words,
it sends the programming in the top box and then the programming in the
bottom box. While the input remains closed it will repeat this process.
Special: This mode allows the user to configure each input independently
as a pushbutton, switch or repetition.
The programmed events are executed when the switch or pushbutton
connected to the MECing is pressed and are organised as follows:
There are 3 switches (2 positions for each switch) or 3 pushbuttons.
Switch Mode: Each position of the switch executes the corresponding event.
The Switch Mode can distinguish between high and low levels. In high level
(position 1 in the switch) for example, each one of the three switches execute

the events programmed in the top boxes and in low level (position 2 in the
switch) it executes the events programmed in the bottom box.
Pushbutton Mode: In this mode, there are two flanks:
One up flank (top box in the same column): If you press once (if it is a
pushbutton, and if it is a switch when you put it in one position), an up
flank is made and the events programmed in the top box are executed.
A down flank (bottom box in this column): When you release (for
pushbuttons) or you change position (for switches), a down flank is
produced and the events programmed in the bottom box are executed.

pushbutton

pushbutton
The first time you press,
the events in programming
box 1 are executed, and
the second time the
pushbutton is pressed it
executes the events in
programming box 2.
In box 1 and 2 you can
have different events.
No more than 6 events
The first time you press the
pushbutton, it executes the
events in programming
box1 and on releasing it,
those in programming box
2.
In programming box 2 you
should have the same
Scripts as in box 1, or none
at all.
No more than 3 events.
switch
When the top part of the
switch is pressed, the
events programmed in box
1 are executed and when
the bottom part is pressed
it does nothing. When the
top part of the switch is
pressed again, the events
in programming box 2 are
executed. When the bottom
part is pressed, it does
nothing.
This combination is not
admitted.
When the top part of the
switch is pressed, the
events programmed in box
1 are executed and when
the bottom part is pressed it
executes the events in
programming box 2.
No more than 6 events.

As mentioned before, when events are executed they are done so in pairs per
column: 1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6. Following the explication given in this table,
this is completely valid for boxes 1 and 2, for 3 and 4 and/or 5 and 6.

You can program each box in two different ways:
Assisted programming (not valid for KA, which
is programmed by
Scripts).
Programming by Scripts.
1.4.1. AssistedProgramming.
Programming events in different programming boxes is all done in the same
way, as described below:
Double click on a programming box to assign the event you want.
Once done, the Node Selection window appears as shown below.

All the devices that have been added to the project appear in this window, but
you can only select devices that belong to the group of actuators. (If you try to
select a different device type, the Development System Software will not
respond). In other words, if you click on a device that does not belong to the
group of actuators (KI, KP, KR, KA...) like a MECBUS, CGBUS, MECing,
LDRBUS, the system will not respond.
Double click on the actuators to access their outputs.
NB: The KI, KP, KR are programmed by default (see the KI, KP and KR
Help Manuals). To avoid confusion, the default programming has been
erased in the examples given in this manual.
If you select…
KI1-KI8:
The following window appears:

NB: Outputs Z1 to Z6 correspond exactly to the arrows shown in the image
above.
You can modify these outputs.
On the right side of the screen you have the following sections:
Discrete switches: You can select an output to activate (on the left column) or
deactivate (right column). The on/off of an output does not affect the rest of the
device outputs. In other words, when you select Circuit1ON, it activates output
Z1 and the remaining outputs continue as they were, whether on or off (lights
on/off) and represented as grey circles in the image.
Example: You want to activate the lights associated to outputs Z1, Z5 and Z6
and leave the rest as they were (on or off):
Double click on this programming box.

NB: Remember that all default programming has been erased, hence the
boxes are empty.
Double click on the corresponding actuator, for example, KI1.
Then, click on each output you want to activate (this action is not applied to the
remaining outputs you do not select).

Toggle an output ( or single switch):
Toggles a selected output, i.e., the output state is changed: if its state is shown
as activated then when it is pressed it will deactivate and vice versa (the control
device is a MECing in this example). A blue circle is shown in the window as
shown below:

Figure: the circles indicate specific on/off executed by the device. If the circle is
red, the output is deactivated (relay open, lights connected to this output are
off); if it is green, the output is activated (relay closed, lights connected to this
output are on).
Clicking on the circles changes its state (red/green) enabling you to program the
device as you require. Example: to activate the lights associated to outputs Z1,
Z5 and Z6 while deactivating the rest (Z2, Z3 and Z4), click on the circles that
correspond to those outputs only.
