How to use the switch creator

The switch creator can be accessed from the menu bar after selecting a site on grid.

1. Define a layout.
   1. select the number of rows and columns in the grid
   2. select the number of switches to be shown on the page
2. Configure switches
   1. For each button set the Type (either Dimmer switch or State switch)
   2. Then set the X coord and Y coord, this is the top left corner of the button in the grid (which starts at 0,0)
   3. Set the height and width, The height is the number of rows the button will span and the width is the number of columns it will span. Make sure the X coord + Width doesn't exceed the # of rows defined on the previous page and Y coord + Height do not exceed the # columns defined on the previous page.
   4. Define a Label or Image
   5. Set the gateway ip, this should be the IP of the control system visible from grid for cloud connected control systems.
   6. For State switches set the Status variable and State value. more information about this can be found in the TPI documentation. See Mode Select 3 for the Command byte "Quick query commands"
      1. The state value should be the expected answer from the query, for current level it should be the expected arc level (0-255). For current scene it should be the wanted scene (0-15).
   7. Init cmd is used for dimmer switches, for an Up dim, set init cmd to Step up & on and Cmd to Step up. set init cmd to Step Down & off and cmd to Step down.
