The Machine-to-Machine Control feature allows you to control outputs of other
Cell682 units (or outputs within the same unit) based on input conditions. For
example, you can switch an output on a Cell682 unit several miles away if an input
on a different unit is greater than a specified value. The output being controlled
must be set to manual mode. Up to 8 machine-to-machine control events can be
configured per Cell682 unit. Note that when an input condition causes an output
to change state, a separate event must be programmed to make the output change
back. For example, if you program output #1 to turn on when input #5 is greater
than 60, the output will not turn off when the input drops below 60. A separate
event must be programmed to make the output turn off when the input is less
than 60.
To program Machine-to-Machine Control click on the Machine-to-Machine Tab.
