Activity Indicator function
Activity Indicator

Activity Indicator is used to program, for example, a DAK key so that the Activity LED will indicate activity in the selected zone(s) specified under Destination, provided the activity is within the selected Priority Range.
Pressing the key will not cause anything to happen.

This function cannot be used on Control Inputs.

Configuration

  • Drag-and-drop Activity Indicator to:

Access Panel > Programmable Keys > p1-px > press_action/release_action

Activity Indicator - Parameters


Destination
Zones in which activity will be indicated.

Priority Range
Activity which corresponds to the priority range will be indicated.

Use Cases

Case 1: Indicate Alarm Status

In this case, the button is used to indicate that a specific alarm is activated. To obtain this, we give the alarm a unique priority (21), and the Activity Indicator is set to filter out all other activities.

Parameters
Destination None
Priority Range 20-21

With the selected parameters, the function will only check priority. If the alarm is the only one with priority 21, setting the priority field to a narrow range of alarms between 20 and 21 means that no other activity will fulfill the required parameters, thus not triggering the Activity Indicator.

Case 2: Indicate Activity in One Zone

In this case, the button is used to indicate that there is activity in Zone 4 or Zone 5.

Parameters
Destination Zone 4 and Zone 5
Priority 1-100

The settings will in effect ignore the priority field and only filter on zones. If there is any activity in either Zone 4 or Zone 5, the activity LED will then be triggered.

Availability

This function is available from Exigo version 1.2.
