Navigation Wheel - Pushbuttons
The top, bottom, left, right and center points on the Navigation Wheel are pushbuttons
that provide events on Channels #7, #8, #9, #10 and #11, and can be programmed like
any other AxLink button. FIG. 2 shows the button layout of the Navigation Wheel:
Navigation Wheel
The Navigation Wheel itself can be rotated clockwise and counterclockwise, and is
intended to provide level control (for example volume or lighting levels).
• When rotated clockwise, the Navigation Wheel provides a channel event on
button #12.
• When rotated counter-clockwise, the Navigation Wheel provides a channel
event on button #13.
• The light on the Navigation Wheel can be illuminated by activating channel #11.
Installation
Note: Before touching the device, discharge the static electricity from your body by
touching a grounded metal object.
FIG. 3 shows the basic rear components of the MET-6N keypads:
AxLink Device Addressing
AxLink-enabled Metreau keypads use an 8-position mini-DIP switch to specify a
unique device address for each keypad in a NetLinx Control System.
Note: Before touching the device, discharge the static electricity from your body by
touching a grounded metal object.
1. If connected, disconnect the power supply.
2. Locate the 8-position mini-DIP switch on the rear panel (see FIG. 3).
3. Set the DIP switch according to the values shown in FIG. 4.
The device number is set by the total value of DIP switch positions that are in the ON
position. Note that the ON position is indicated on the DIP Switch. As an example, the
DIP switch in FIG. 4 defines AXLink device number 129 (1+128=129).
If you later change the device number, remove and reconnect the power connector to
enter the new device number into memory.
