6.6.2 External Mute: Paging Trigger
The Renovia System has a built-in solution for whole-house paging, 
typically through a phone system. The Paging Trigger setting causes 
the system to mute across all the zones, and in turn, amplifies the 
page across all zones. Each Zone Edit utility in the Configurator 
Software or the menu at each Control Pad offers the capability of 
setting the page volume in each zone. If you choose to use the 
paging feature, click on the Paging Trigger radio button. This sets 
the mute input on the Main Source Hub to respond to a trigger from 
the paging device. The trigger can be left at 
Active Low (0-1V)
if the
trigger is a contact closure, or
Active High (3-30V)
if the trigger is a
voltage.
6.6.3 24 Hour Time Display and Power Off Mode
24 Hour Time Display: By checking the 24 Hour Time Display box, 
the system will automatically go to a 24 hour clock on each of the 
zone Control Pads.
Power Off Mode: The Renovia Configurator allows the option for 
three power off modes. 
 Tap Mute/Hold for Zone-Off w/ All-Off 
 Menu: This mode causes a temporary zone mute 
 when the Control Pad power button is tapped. When it 
 is held, a second menu will appear with the options to 
 turn the zone off or turn all the zones off.
 Tap Zone-Off/Hold for Group/All-Off Menu: 
 In this mode, a single tap of the power button turns 
 the zone off, and holding the power button activates a 
 second menu that gives the option to turn off that 
 zone’s group or turn off all zones. 
 Tap Zone-Off/Hold for All-Off (no menu): 
 This is the default choice. In this mode, a tap turns the 
 zone off and holding the power button turns all the 
 zones off. 
6.6.5 Security Code
A feature with the zone setup of the Renovia System is the ability to 
lock the zone. This can be done as a default that will require a four-
digit security code to unlock the zone Control Pad when the zone is 
turned on. It can also be done as a temporary setting from the 
Control Pad menu to lock the zone on its current listening choice. In 
either scenario, the security code must be set to unlock the zone. The 
security code can be any four digits or left at the default, 5555.
6.6.6 HomePlug Channel
This drop-down menu has four choices,
A, B, C,
and
D.
This is only
necessary if you are installing two Renovia systems on the same 
electrical service, or on separate electrical services that have wiring 
routed closely enough that coupling of the HomePlug signals 
between them becomes possible. This may occur in a situation in 
which multiple units in a Multiple Dwelling Unit property have a 
Renovia installation. By setting the two systems on two different 
channels, they can operate independently of each other. This setting 
only affects the channel of communication for the Main Source Hub.
6.6.4 Serial Delay
This drop down menu provides a choice of delays measured in 
milliseconds. This is rarely used and is only necessary when you are 
using the RS232 communication for third party control of the 
Renovia System. This utility slows the rate at which information is 
delivered to the home automation system from Renovia. This is 
sometimes necessary to allow the home automation’s processor 
time to buffer the incoming information.
The Zone Amplifiers are set for the HomePlug Channel separately 
(see Section
5.0. Homeplug Channel).
If you are not intending to set a HomePlug Channel, leave 
the default setting at A.
