Limit output on VDM

[maik1]

How do I limit the output on a VDM channel to say 40 or 50% maximum? I have the ramping working, I just can't seem to find the coding for maximum value.

Thank you

I'm assuming you want to set a maximum intensity for your lights?

I created a profile called LEDMax or something similar

Type: ramp
Ramp Time: 1
Start Intensity: 75
End Intensity: 75

I don't have my LEDS hooked up so I can test it, but I have it set to ramp from 0-75% over 1 hour and then stay at 75% until my sunset ramp down is activated. I'm not even 100% certain that this profile is needed; you might be able to simply ramp to a percentage and it might stay there until modified by teh next program statement that evaluates to on. I'm not certain...

That works great in AUTOMATIC mode kayl, thank you. But I would like to make sure that when I click ON on the VDM Channel on the IPhone app that the output level never goes higher than the pre set level like 40-50%.

Got it-
How about a virtual outlet like such:

Virtual Outlet whatever you want to name it


In the VDM channel
If outlet whatever = ON Then LEDMax (your ramping profile described above)
If outlet whatever = OFF Then OFF

Then you'd toggle the lights by turning the virtual outlet on and off...
