Cell682 User’s Manual
Click the down arrow in the Input Trigger field to select the input that will initiate
the event. If you select a Dry Contact input, you can have the event occur when
the selected input goes from Open-to-Closed or Closed-to-Open. If you select an
Analog input you can have the event occur if the input is equal-to, greater-than, or
less-than a specified value.
Enter a value for the comparison (range: -16,300 to 16,300).
Note: Peer-to-peer events are triggered as soon as the input meets the trigger
conditions. There is no recognition time applied in this case. Also, peer-to-peer
events will not be executed while you are on line locally.
Next, enter the PIN and Password of the Cell682 unit whose output you want to
switch. Select the output number and action (either ON or OFF). Click Apply or
OK when finished. Remember, the target output must be set to manual mode, oth-
erwise the command will be ignored. If the password is wrong the command will
be ignored as well.
local oUtpUt control
You can perform control logic using the same inputs and outputs on a single
Cell682 unit. If you want to switch an output on the same Cell682 as the input,
then simply enter the unit’s own PIN (a password is not required in this case). The
output must be set to manual mode. Local output control does not use any airtime
and also executes instantly (as long as there are no preceding peer-to-peer events
that must communicate with a different Cell682 device).
iMportant inforMation and warnings
• It may take several minutes for the peer-to-peer command to reach the destina-
tion Cell682.
• Peer-to-peer commands are processed in a sequential, non-predetermined
order. This means that if more than one command is triggered, the subse-
quent commands must wait until the currently processed command is fin-
ished. If two peer-to-peer commands are triggered simultaneously that affect
the same output, the order of the processing cannot be guaranteed.
• Both the source and destination Cell682 devices must be powered on and oper-
ational for peer-to-peer commands to operate correctly.
• If the unit is in the middle of alarm processing, peer-to-peer commands may
be delayed while alarms are being sent.
• Peer-to-peer commands are not processed while logged in with the PC soft-
ware. The user should log off and the serial cable should be unplugged during
normal operation to ensure that peer-to-peer commands are properly pro-
cessed.
