The value of the communication object (1) is set to the next smallest value from the step list field. In doing so, the starting point is the current value of the communication object. The list is stored in the master data communication object.

The value of the communication object (1) is set to the next highest value from the step list field. In doing so, the starting point is the current value of the communication object. The list is stored in the master data communication object.

The value of the communication object (1) is reduced by the step size. In doing so, the starting point is the current value of the communication object. The step size is stored in the master data communication object.

The value of the communication object (1) is increased by the step size. In doing so, the starting point is the current value of the communication object. The step size is stored in the master data communication object.

The following constant is added to the current value of the communication object (1). Negative values can also be added.
The addition is always carried out; the min-max value of the communication object is thereby not exceeded or fallen below.
Example: 10 is to be added to the current dim value of 95%; however, the HomeServer only transmits the maximum value of 100% during the addition (which has been set in the communication object).

A request is made of the communication object.
ATTENTION: If the result is to be re-used in the following commands,
then there should be a pause of approx. 3 seconds before the subsequent instruction!
Additional information is contained in the Chapter Process image.

This command can make an entry into one of the following archives:

This command sends the date and time to the EIB.
The data are sent to the communication objects from Project/Time synchronization/Send date and time to EIB .

Important: This function only exists in projects in which it is used. To send or receive 14-byte text, please use the function Receive IP/EIB telegram or Send IP/EIB telegram.

Using this command, a fixed text or a text module is sent to a communication object. The communication object may be, e.g. in a Gira Infodisplay 2.0. Only communication objects of the 14-byte data type can be assigned.

You can switch between static and dynamic text (text module) using the [Stat] [Dyn] button.
If dynamic text is selected then a second communication object (text control) is indicated for controlling the text module.

A sequence is started or paused using this command.

A scene is addressed using this command.

The following functions are available:

• Learn:
  All current status values of the actuators assigned to the scene are stored in the HomeServer retentive (permanently). The current states are taken from the process image and are not read out.
• Request:
  The scene is requested. The stored values are sent to the EIB. The number of EIB telegrams per second can be set under Project/EIB for the HomeServer.
• Offset smaller:
  All actuators of the scene are reduced by the step size. The current value of the single actuator are thereby changed by this value.
• Offset larger:
  All actuators of the scene are increased by the step size. The current value of the single actuator are thereby changed by this value.
• List smaller:
  Each actuator value of the scene is set to its next smaller value from its list.
• List larger:
  Each actuator value of the scene is set to its next higher value from its list.

Using this command, alarms can be generated via E-mail, SMS and telephone call.
Alarms and groups of recipients must be defined for this.

This command brings the Visu page up to the front, e.g. in case of an alarm.
The design and the Visu page must be selected for this. The user must be issued with a release (permission) for this.

Important notes:

• The pop-up Visu page must be able to be called up from another Visu page to establish a connection.
• The user must have the necessary rights at the Visu page making the call.
• Furthermore, the pop-up Visu page must belong to the user group of the user.
• If the user is within the menu, the Visu or the query. The pop-up Visu page is only displayed after the refresh (refer to Project/Times). The Visu alarm does not function within Visu screens (e.g. diagrams, timers, etc.).
• If several Visu alarms are triggered during the refresh time then only the last-called page is displayed!
• The Visu alarm does not function within screens (e.g. diagrams, timers, etc.)

Using this command, data can be sent via the network to other HomeServer or network-enabled devices.

The following types are available:

• Sending IP/EIB telegrams:
  Here, data can be sent via the network to other HomeServer or network-enabled devices. Furthermore, data can be sent to 14-byte communication objects. The data to be sent is set in the program item Send IP/EIB telegram.
  
• Request and evaluation of web pages/IP devices:
  Here, data can be sent to web pages or network-enabled devices. The response received can be evaluated and processed. The data are set in the program item Evaluate web pages/IP devices.

The TRAPs are sent using this command.
The settings for the TRAPs are located at Master data/Project/SNMP. The following data are required for sending:

• MIB


• Communication object. The value of this communication object is sent
• Factor: On sending, the value of the communication objects is multiplied by this factor.

Using this command, a wake-on-LAN telegram can be sent via the network to a workstation PC.
The workstations are defined in the program item Network/Wake On LAN.

The dim object of a dimmer is addressed by this
This command is only available with the 4-bit data type.
Due to the signal runtime, the behavior of the HomeServer from the user interface is not comparable to that of an EIB probe with dim application!
We recommend that you work with the setting of the brightness value object of the dimmer.
Otherwise, you can combine the single dim commands into a sequence.
