Creating a Query

A query is a question sent from K-Config to a peripheral device followed by an expected reply from that device. The

reply is analyzed by the system according to a set of definitions that was entered by the user or by receiving the first

reply within a predefined time period. The reply can then be used to trigger a list of actions.

You can build the query into a shared Query name (Power, LampHour, Fan, Comm_Status and Input), or create

specific Non-Shared queries.

Queries are sent to the Kramer Site Control software which can monitor and control multiple room controllers via the

Site Control Message command (see
