Standard Lamp Group
The standard Lamp Group combines multiple lamps to one group.
Lamps
All the devices, which shall be combined to one lamp group, must be chosen in this menu. Pressing the Edit-button will open a form, in which all defined lamps can be chosen. By marking a lamp and pressing Delete the selected lamp will be removed from the group. The lamp will only be taken from the group, not from the whole application.

Commands
- Fade Up: This command will increase the light value of all assigned lamps by their entered fade-rate. The command will only work when the lamp is already turned on. Increasing the value above the maximum level is not possible.
- Fade Down: This command decreases the light value by the entered fade-rate but will not let a lamp turn off completely.
- On: Turns the assigned lamps either to the maximum or the resetting-value, which depends on the fact, if the Resetting Mode is activated or not. The Resetting Mode can be activated for each lamp of a group separately.
- Off: Turns the assigned lamps off. When the Resetting Mode is activated the light value prior to the off-state will be stored.
- Call Maximum Control Value: Each lamp of the assigned group will be turned to its maximum level.
- Call Minimum Control Value: Each lamp of the assigned group will be turned to its minimum level.
- Set Control Value Direct: The entered value will be taken over to the lamps, when the Apply-button is pressed. If the entered value is greater than the maximum value of one of the lamps, the lamp will be set to its maximum level. If it is lower than its minimum level, but not 0, the lamp will be set to its minimum level. Entering and applying a 0 will turn the lamps off.
