PROGRAMMING

Programming of the 5012 is identical to the earlier switch,

the 9812. Each switch is addressed by its physical position

number as shown on the front panel (1-24). Either a single

switch or several may be selected by one command string.

The commands to each switch are separated by a semi-

colon (;) and the delay option specified by ‘/X/Y’ where ‘X’ is

the turn on delay and ‘Y’ is the turn off delay, both in 1/10ths

of a second. The complete command string is terminated by

either a carriage return (CR) or line feed (LF).

PROGRAM MODES

DECIMAL:

Switches to be turned on are

specified by decimal commands. All

other switches are turned off.

MEMORY +:

Switches to be turned on are

specified by a positive decimal

command. All other switches remain

unchanged.

MEMORY

–:

Switches to be turned off specified

as a negative decimal command.

All other switches remain unchanged.

DELAY OPTION:

Delays the decimal memory + or

–

commands by a specified amount

(0.1s

– 25s). On and Off delays

are specified separately.

HEXADECIMAL:

Turn on switches by a hexadecimal

string. All others turn off.

G.E.T.:

Sets the 5012 to execute commands

after the Group Execute Trigger

command has been received.

GOTO LOCAL:

Sets the 5012 into local mode.

TRANSMIT LOCAL:

Instructs the 5012 to send back all its

settings.
