Programming the Outputs

  • Navigate to Programming | Outputs

    You'll see the wizard has automatically created the 8 outputs for our PX8 (Elevator Outputs Output 1 through to Elevator Outputs Output 8)

    The first thing we're going to do is rename our outputs to show the floor and elevator they control. We're also going to use short / abbreviated names so they don't truncate when viewed on a keypad (a keypad can only shows the first 16 characters), and so we can see the name easily when we're in the Elevator programming window. More on that shortly.

  • Rename the first 4 of the outputs from the Elevator Outputs output expander as follows:
    • Elvtr Flr1 (Elevator Floor 1)
    • Elvtr Flr2 (Elevator Floor 2)
    • Elvtr Flr3 (Elevator Floor 3)
    • Elvtr Flr4 (Elevator Floor 4)
