Levels
The Radia only supports 8-bit levels with values from 0-255; equivalent to 0-100%. Each AXLink level
(1-6) corresponds o a dimmer (1-6). The levels can be used both as feedback and control.
As feedback, when a dimmer is ramping (i.e. changing level), the Radia will send notification to the
master as the level changes EXCEPT as noted below.
As control, the Radia also can receive level changes from the master and it will update the dimmers’
output level corresponding to the received level from the master. The rate of actual dimmer level change
is determined by the default level time as specified in the 'LT' command. Receipt of level changes will
also define the affected dimmer for the purposes of presets. During ramping of a dimmer output due to
incoming level changes, the Radia will not send feedback level updates. It will resume sending level
updates back to the master upon reception of a command or channel that affects the dimmer/level.
Default Settings
The factory defaults for all adjustable settings is as follows:
Default Low-end
The default low-end setting is 1 for all dimmers.
Default Ramp Time
The default ramp times, in seconds, are:
Initial Level Status Reporting
When communication with a master is established, the master assumes the Radia is at its default level
status, and the master assumes that all levels are at zero. However, the Radia may not be at the same
status assumed by the master on default, and at least one or more levels would be non-zero if new levels
are established. Because of this, the Radia saves the value of each level, and will send an update to the
master of the value of any non-zero level if your code contains a CREATE_LEVEL or LEVEL_EVENT
for the Radia.
