Fields

Name Definition
Block Name Enter a name for the Wall module block.
Block Type Displays the type of wall module.
Wall Module Model Selection
Wall Module Type Lists all wall module models supported by Spyder. The following options are available:
  • Temperature Only
  • Temperature, Humidity

Depending on the wall module type selected, the available models are displayed in the Select Model list. The Wall Module type you select determines the function block type. If you select a model of Conventional wall module type, the function block becomes a Conventional wall module. Similarly, if the module type selected is an S-Bus wall module, the function block becomes a S-Bus wall module.

Note: For a Conventional wall module having linkages on the wiresheet, if you change the Wall module type to that of an S-Bus wall module, a warning stating that the linkages will be deleted if you try to change the model type appears.

Model Options
You have the following model options to choose from:
  • LCD Display
  • 2 wire Sensor Bus Communication

For the current Spyder version, the available models have both LCD display and 2-wire Sensor Bus Communication options and therefore selecting any one option automatically selects the other.

Note: Based on the Wall Module Type and the Model Option selected, the Model Selection list displays the available models.

Changing conventional wall module to SBus and vice-versa.

You can suitably change the wall module you have dropped on to the wiresheet by checking the Model Options check-boxes. If you have dropped a conventional wall module on the wiresheet, check any of the the Model Options check-boxes, the wall module changes to a SBus wall module and all the wizard buttons are displayed on the left pane. Similarly, if you have dropped an SBus wall module on the wiresheet and uncheck the Model Options checkbox, the wall module changes to that of a conventional type and all wizard buttons except for the General Settings disappear from the left pane.

Select Model The options available in this list are based on the Wall Module Type and Model Option selected.

Example: If you select Temperature Only as the Wall Module Type and LCD Display as the Model option, The Select Model list lists Temp (LCD, 2 Wire) as the selectable option.

Wall Module Address This field is hidden for any wall modules that are not on 2 wire bus or have LCD display (all LCD wall modules are 2 wire). Select an address that indicates the address for the selected wall module on the 2 wire bus (corresponding to dip switch selections). The default selection is 1. The address of the TR71/TR75 wall modules ranges from 1 to 10. The address of the TR70 wall module ranges from 1 to 5.
Time Display Format Specify whether time is shown in 12 hour or 24 hour units.
Memory Usage Details Shows current memory usage for the wall module. Memory updates are made any time a change is made to the configuration. Every click in the SBus wall module calculates the memory at the background.

Note: Memory usage must be less than 100% in order controller.

If the memory usage exceeds the maximum limit, a message appears indicating that the configuration must be modified in order to reduce the memory usage before downloading the configuration. Click the memory usage details button to view the distribution of memory for each configured component graphically and in a tabular format.
