Pin Name Pin Type Description
Output Name All Assigns a name to the output pin that will be
used in display, logging, and alarms
Local Display All Assigns the pin to a specific panel within the
control panel display. Set to Off for pins that
will not be displayed on control panel.
Note – Output pins assigned to the control
panel can be set to a value by a user. To
create a read-only display assign the output pin
to a virtual input pin and display the input pin.
Cloud Display All Defines which of 8 possible attributes this pins
value will appear on a SkyCloud pin
Log All When set to On changes in the state or value
of the output pin will be entered in the log file.
Note – See Logging Rules for more
information on logging
Program All Virtual The program name, selected from a pull down
of defined programs that will be executed when
a numeric or digital pin changes state or value.
Initial Value All Digital Specifies how the digital pin will be initialized
upon power up or restart. Choices are On, Off,
or Last. The Last setting will provide a
persistent pin value.
Label for On[Off] All Digital Provides labels for the state of a digital pin that
will be used on the control panel.
Output State All Digital Displays the current state of a digital output
pin. This value can be changed by the user,
causing the output to change state once the
Submit button is pressed.
Shutoff Timer All Digital Once a digital output has been set to On this
timer will return the pin to the Off state after a
specified number of seconds.
Polarity Physical Digital Inverts the physical state (open vs. conducting)
of a physical output pin relative to the logical
states of On or Off. In many cases UI
considerations will require that the labels for
On and Off be reversed to compensate for this
setting.
Decimal Scale Virtual Numeric Assigns levels of decimal precision to the value
represented by the output pin. Choices are 2
digits, 6 digits, or zero digits.
Current Value Virtual Numeric Much like the Output State setting for digital
pins this setting allows the user to change the
value stores on the numeric Input pin.
Initial Value (numeric) Virtual Numeric Specifies how the numeric pin will be initialized.
upon power up or restart. Choices are “Last
Value” or a user defined value
