Intelligent Building Series C-Touch User’s Guide Term Definition Page A page is an assortment of soft keys and graphics that represents something understandable to the user. Component A graphical object displayed on a C-Touch screen. Components include soft keys, images, text, clocks, temperature sensors and other items. Backlight The back of the screen is illuminated to make it visible when it is dark. This illumination is called backlight.
Intelligent Building Series 5.0 C-Touch User’s Guide Getting Started The C-Touch unit can display pages with many different kinds of Components. Components that you may use include: • • • • Clocks with date and/or time Percentage indicators Images Text These components may just be graphic design elements or could actually perform some useful action when pressed. The layout and configuration of the components depend on how the C-Touch has been programmed by your installer.
Intelligent Building Series C-Touch User’s Guide 5.1.1 Control Buttons The notion of a Control button is the easiest to understand. You touch a Control button and something happens. You can turn on a light, start a sprinkler, turn up the speed on a fan or open a blind. A Control button can have the name of the device it controls written on it, or a picture. As an illustration, imagine that we wanted to have one button to open and blind and one to close the blind.
Intelligent Building Series C-Touch User’s Guide 5.1.3 Sliders A slider can be used to adjust the level as in the following: Sliders © Copyright 2003 Clipsal Integrated Systems Pty Ltd.
Intelligent Building Series 6.0 C-Touch User’s Guide Example Touch Screen Configuration Here is the Master Menu on one particular touch Screen setup. In this case the layout offers direct access to two rooms in the house and a further button offers access to sub-menu pages. Another way to display information is in a purely graphical way.

Intelligent Building Series 7.0 C-Touch User’s Guide Utility and Setting Pages The C-Touch touch screen features inbuilt maintenance and diagnostic utility pages. The utility pages contain calibration, diagnostics, startup and cleaning pages. The setting pages allow the time, date, contrast and backlight to be adjusted. 7.1 Utility Pages These are the four basic utility functions: • • • • diagnostics pages calibration page startup page cleaning page 7.1.
Intelligent Building Series C-Touch User’s Guide 7.1.4 Cleaning Page The final utility page is the cleaning page which disables the touch screen temporarily so that you can clean the unit without turning loads on and off inadvertently. The page looks like this: 35 Seconds to go... 7.2 Setting Pages The setting pages allow you to set the date, time and overall appearance of the touch screen. 7.2.1 Time Setting Page Selecting the time setting function produces the page below.
Intelligent Building Series C-Touch User’s Guide 7.2.2 Date Setting Page Similarly, the date displayed by the C-Touch unit can be set with a setting page. This page is displayed below. The day of the month is selected by the upward and downward pointing arrows. Pressing the upward facing arrow increases the number of the day displayed and pressing the downward facing arrow decreases it. When you reach the end of the month, the day number goes back to one again.
Intelligent Building Series C-Touch User’s Guide 7.2.3 Contrast Adjustment Page The contrast adjustment page allows you to make the screen lighter or darker. This page is displayed below. The “lighter” button makes the writing lighter and gradually lightens the background. If you go too far the writing will disappear entirely. In such a case press the area on the screen just to the right, which is the reset button, returning the contrast to its default value.
Intelligent Building Series C-Touch User’s Guide 7.2.4 Backlight Control Page The C-Touch unit contains a light behind the screen. This light is called a “backlight”. The backlight comes on when the room light level is too dark to see the screen properly. The actual room light level used to turn the backlight on can be adjusted using the “Backlight Control” page. To use this feature, call up the “Backlight Control” page and turn the lights down gradually in the room where the C-Touch unit is installed.

Intelligent Building Series C-Touch User’s Guide 11.0 Scenes One of the benefits of an automation system is that you can combine several events together to create a special effect. An example of this is the experience obtained when attending the movies: the house lights dim, the drum roll from the sound track plays, the curtain opens and the movie begins to play. You can create exactly this effect by using a “scene” triggered by your C-Touch unit. Anything on your C-Bus system can be included in a scene.
