Function behaviour when used on an interface
Option 'On/Off' (standard)
- Short
- With a short push (switch on) the timer of the 'Timed Local Mood' is started.

When the 'Timed Local Mood' is switched off the active functions will be switched off as described in the respective function.
- Long

A 'Timed Local Mood' can only be switched off when its timer has not expired. This means before the function which was last selected was activated. If the 'repeat' parameter is ticked, then the 'Timed Local Mood' can always be switched off.
When the 'Timed Local Mood' is no longer active, and you want to switch off the different functions quickly, then activate the 'Timed Local Mood' in order to switch it off immediately afterwards (only when the 'On/Off' option is selected).
Option 'On'

- The 'Timed Local Mood' is activated when the other function is switched on. When the other function is switched off, the 'Timed Local Mood' will switch off.
- Off/Off
- When the other function is switched on, the Timed Local Mood will switch off. When he other function is switched off the 'Timed Local Mood' will remain switched off. Nothing happens.
When the 'Timed Local Mood' is switched on while it is active, the 'Timed Local Mood' will be restarted from the beginning.
When the 'Timed Local Mood' has run through the set time path, then the active status of the function in which the 'Timed Local Mood' is located, will be automatically 'Not True' or 'Off'.
Not every function can be switched off. Consult for this matter the description of the respective function.
Application example:
Controlling garden sprinklers is done in timed phases (not all sprinklers can be on at the same time). The first group(s) is/are activated immediately, the second group after 30 minutes (and the first is switched off first), the next group thirty minutes later, etc…
