Chapter 20—Control User Interface
10 The Home Control Assistant
Also on this page are additional configuration options. The Control Interface can automatically
close an open popup after some set inactivity time as well as return to the home page from a room
display after some period of inactivity.
The status bar at the top of the Control Interface by default shows the design name at the left and
the time at the right. Using the “Status bar text” options you can control the text that appears. You
can use HCA expressions to generate the text as the example above shows.
Another of the options is to show or not show a Suspend button on popups. The Suspend /
Resume operation is very useful but can be confusing to those not well versed in HCA. Also you
may want to prohibit users for overriding the schedule for a device by using Suspend. You can set
the default for this option on the HCA – Properties tab but also control it individually for each
device and program from the device properties dialog.
When available, the Suspend button shows this popup. As always it is optimized for each use by
finger tap.
Control Panel
As described above, you can tap on the HCA Icon at the left end of the Control Interface status
bar. This popup appears:
The first two sections on this popup are for changing the schedule and home mode. The current
schedule and mode are shown by the arrow inside the button.
The
Development UI button returns to the Development User Interface.
