I have a program that I am getting ready and have some closet doors that will be triggering an IO on my DIN-AP3. The light in the closet will come on when door is open and off when closed. Do I use a generic motion detector as the programming device for this or is there something better suited for this application?

TIA

Or generic contact closure, either will work. Think about a timer on the light as well.

Right...good point..Thanks

I usually program these in the SIMPL program. I find it easier to do than in D3.

We do this all the time and use a generic digital input. Go into "other devices" - right click on the room then new - Devices - Type, change to "Generic", then select "Generic Digital input" from the model.

For closet doors we never use a timer. Usually if you are in the closet the door will be open, If you aren't in the closet then the door is closed.

I found that device. Works for me. Thanks

If you use the Cameo Pro keypads you gain a lot more inputs this way too rather than having to add a DIN-IO8.

For Mechanical rooms and sometimes small rooms with 1 light we just use a basic light switch rather than a keypad as you get the same functionality at a fraction of the cost
