Outputs or Automation tab

Note: Label of this tab may be Outputs or Automation depending on the Display Z-Wave and PowerG+ devices option. For more information, see Resolve tab.

The OUTPUTS tab displays all the output devices including output, PGM, activation ports and Z-Wave. The AUTOMATION tab displays all the panel’s Z-Wave and PowerG+ automation devices.

In this tab the devices can be:

• Viewed

• Controlled - Turned on or off. You can enable PowerMaster devices to turn on for specified time periods.

• Configured – set icon and label

You can only control the devices for defined time periods after an alarm event. To define this time period:

1. Click Settings.

2. Click RESOLVE.

3. Click Automation Activation settings.

Note: In DSC panels the output needs to be configured as command output 1-4 ([*]→[009]→121-124) and the created devices are as follows: X00Y, when X is the number of output 1-4 and Y is the associated partition number of the output device. For example, if two physical output devices are configured as output 1 and assigned to three partitions 1, 2 and 3, then 3 output devices are created called 1001, 1002, and 1003. Each such output device controls the two physical output devices.
