1.6 ETC Preset Object Type
ETC Preset: BACnet Properties List
Is the Object Type Proprietary?
Yes.
Does the Object Type Contain any Proprietary Properties?
Yes, all but the first eight properties.
General Description of Object Type
The ETC Preset object type is an ETC proprietary construct to encapsulate multiple
properties of a Paradigm "Preset" and its associated values. Paradigm presets are
persistent lighting looks or scenes for one or more channels.
The preset playback can be scoped to individual spaces, if they span multiple spaces. Each
object instance for this "Object_Type" has an "Object_Identifier" that is unique for this type
and "Object_Name".
The BACnet object instance is managed by the P-CCS, based on the configuration using
Paradigm LightDesigner software. The maximum number of objects supported is 10,000.
The "Present_Value" property will always have the objects status value. The
"Preset_BCID" (EtcBACnetCID) value will always be a unique identifier within the storage
of the BACnet interface device and the P-CCS sub-system.
