Configure Illuminated 800F Peer Commands

The 'Peer Command' view allows you to configure as many as seven peer control commands per device.
TIP:
  • Non-illuminated push buttons do not support peer commands.
  • For 800F communication interface modules only: To access 'Peer Commands', the 'Operating Mode' must be configured to 'Peer Mode'.
  • Peer Command 0 has the highest priority and Peer Command 6 has the lowest priority. The highest priority peer command with trigger conditions that are true determines the state of the 800F LED.
