Configuration

  Active

You can use this circuit to switch the operation on and off.

  Name

Give the threshold switch a name. The name improves the clarity and enables you to reference this operation using the name in another place, for example in the gates and delays.

  Settings

You can use the symbol to expand the configuration screen to include further settings. You can use the symbol to hide these settings again.

  Delete

By pushing the delete button, you launch the relevant operation with standard values.

  Input

Here you can select the input signal of the threshold switch. You can use all analog input signals from the available technologies.

  upper threshold

When the input goes above the upper threshold, the output gets high.

  lower threshold

When the input goes below the lower threshold, the output gets low

  Output

Here, you can determine that the output value generated is forwarded to an output.

  Scenes

Here, you can determine that the output value generated on a scene is forwarded. If an "on" signal is generated as an output signal, the "on" scene is carried out. If an "off" signal is generated, the "off" scene is carried out accordingly.

 

FAQs

 

Do outputs and scenes have to be entered in the configuration fields?
No. An operation can be defined without outputs and scenes. In this case, it works exclusively as an input for "Gates" and "Time delays".
