• Group addresses• Custom environments• Functions MasterThe "ENVIRONMENTS" section allows you perform the following operations on the items of the topological representation of the system /from thelevel "environment" to the level "group address"):• Structure view• Creating Environments• Inserting an environment in an area• Deleting the environments• Modifying environments dataFrom "ENVIRONMENTS" it's also possible to set the functions master.EnvironmentsIn the "ZONES" section, the "environments" represent the items of lowest hierarchical level (the leaves of the "ZONES" tree).From this section you can see how many and what are the automation system devices and group addresses included in the various environments.DevicesAs described in detail in the chapter Modeling Vimar's Well-Contact system KNX devices, in addition to being represented as a set of group addresses(typical representation of KNX supervision systems), in the Well-Contact Suite software they're also represented as "devices".In the "ENVIRONMENT" section, the Vimar Well-Contact system devices are then represented as such.Group addressesFor every environment in this section all the group addresses it contains are represented.Beside the representation of each group address, an indicator is located on the configuration status, with regard to the information that is necessary forthe Well-Contact Suite software to manage the supervision of that address.The symbols used to display the configuration status of the group addresses are as follows:Graphical symbolMeaningAll the address information about the group address required by the Well-Contact Suite software have been entered correctly.The information about the group address is incomplete.In the event that information about the group address is incomplete, the Well-Contact Suite software may not be able to properly handle the supervisionof the address of that group.For a detailed description of the group addresses data entry, refer to the chapter The ADDRESSES/OBJECTS Section.Custom environmentsCustom environments can be considered as the "virtual environments" or, better, "containers" of devices (or group addresses) that do not belong to anyof the categories of environments listed above, or "collections" of devices and group addresses to be displayed in a window of the Well-Contact SoftwareSuite "Supervision" section.Functions MasterThe functions masters, as described in detail in the chapter "Functions master", are "virtual devices" associated with a set of devices of the same type, inorder to send one or more commands (the same) to the whole group of devices.From the "ENVIRONMENTS" section it's also possible to create the functions masters.Structure viewYou can change the view of the topological structure of the system. Every element that "contains" elements at a lower hierarchical level can be "expanded"(left-clicking the '+' symbol or double clicking the row) or "collapsed" (left-clicking the symbol '-' or double clicking the corresponding row).Here are three images representing three different levels of the "ENVIRONMENTS" tree expansion.88
