Slider

How to configure the Slider component in Ilevia Manager, which represents a percentage (dimmer, blind opening), and how it appears in Ilevia Control.


Introduction

The Slider component represents a percentage. The percentage of a dimmer is controlled by a Slider. If necessary, indicate a maximum value higher than 100; you can change the default settings.
It is also possible to split the percentage into several points and define which icon to use for each range.

Use cases

  • You can use the Slider component to set the brightness of dimmable lights, or to set the opening of blinds.
