iSMACONTROLLI iSMA-B-AAC20 Advance Control Kit
Introduction
This manual contains information about the iSMA Advance Control kit in the
AAC20 controller, which was developed separately from the main Control kit for
special needs of advanced users.
The Advance Control kit has been developed in order to facilitate creating of
user applications. With this kit components, an advanced application can be
built in a simple way. The kit contains the following components:
- ActionTrigger;
- DimmerSwitch;
- RaiseLower.

Advance Control Components
This section outlines all components available in the Advance Control kit.
Dimmer Switch
The Dimmer Switch component has been created to control a light dimmer with
the use of a single (one digital input) or two buttons (two digital inputs).
In a single switch mode, the Switch 1 has defined functions for short and long
press. The short press is when the button is pressed for less than the time
defined in the Short In slot. The long press is when the button is pressed for
longer than the time defined in the Short In slot. The short press is
dedicated tto on/off switching, the long press is dedicated for changing
dimming value. Each short press toggles between on and off state. During long
press the component increases or decreases the dimming value.
In a double switch mode, each button has defined functions: switch 1 is for
switching on (short press) and increasing dimmer value (long press), switch 2
is for switching off (short press) and decreasing dimmer value (long press).
The short press is when the high state time is less than the time defined in
the Short In slot. The long press is when the short time elapses, and the
button is still in the high state.
The DimmerSwitch component has the following slots:
- Switch: the output slot for dimmer, digital value for on and off state;
- Dimm Value: the output slot for dimmer, analog 0-100% value;
- Switch Type: the button input;
- Switch1: the button input, main for the single switch mode, on, or increasing output in the double switch mode;
- Switch2: the button input, not active for the single switch mode, off, or decreasing output in the double switch mode;
- Set On: triggers the dimmer switch to on state (to max level);
- Set Off: triggers the dimmer switch to off state;
- Short In: the time of short button press;
- Memo Off: enables/disables a memory function of the Dimm Value during switch off; Max Dimm Value: max. dimmer analog value;
- Min Dimm Value: min. dimmer analog;
- Speed In: the dimming speed time.
Action Trigger
The ActionTrigger component has been created to remotely recollect the action
from a Sedona component. Sedona does not allow to create links to component’s
actions, and actions can be recalled manually from programming software (for
example, the iSMA Tool) or by a dedicated component. The ActionTrigger
component has 3 input slots, each dedicated to a Sedona variable type (as a
standard we use only the one corresponding to the component type). The
programmes create a link to the component, from which the action will be
recalled to the ActionTrigger component input slot. The Action Name slot
defines which action is to be recalled.
The ActionTrigger component has the following slots:
- Status: shows the component’s status;
- In Boolean: the input slot to make a link connection between components–Boolean type;
- In Integer: the input slot to make a link connection between components–integer type;
- In Numeric: Input slot to make a link connection between components–numeric/float type;
- Value Boolean: the Boolean output value;
- Value Integer: the integer output value;
- Value Numeric: the numeric output value;
- Action Name: the action name from the linked component, which will be recalled;
- Action Trigger: recalls action from the component linked to one of the input slots defined in Action Name.
The ActionTrigger component has the following actions:
Action: manually invokes an action from a linked component.
RaiseLower
The RaiseLower component simplifies the control of 3-point valve actuators.
This component has the following functions:
- analog input, works with PID regulators;
- 2 digital outputs for 3-point direct control valve actuators;
- analog output for 3-point control valve actuators by voltage level (additional device required);
- midnight reset function to automatically adjust physical and virtual valve position.
The RaiseLower component has the following slots:
- Function: the current function description (Lower_State, Static_State, Raise_State, Adjustment_Opening, Adjustment_Closing);
- Virtual Position: shows the valve virtual position in %;
- Out: the analog output slot;
- Rise Out: the digital output for rising function;
- Lower Out: the digital output for lowing function;
- In: allows to set the valve position demand;
- Full Open Time: allows to set the time for opening valve position from 0% to 100%; Full Close Time: allows to set the time for closing valve position from 100% to 0%;
- Adjustment Active: triggers the remote adjustment procedure;
- Adjustment Period: allows to set the adjustment procedure recall period in hours; Next Adjustment In: shows the time (in minutes) to the next adjustment procedure.
The RaiseLower component has the following action:
Adjust: valve adjustment procedure recall (adjusts physical and virtual
valve position).
Out Value | Rise | Lower | Description |
---|---|---|---|
0 | Off | Off | Off |
4 | Off | On | Lower |
7 | Off | Off | Static |
10 | On | Off | Rise |
