-mAirList supports the five digital inputs for the triggering of remote commands.
+The VM110(N) device is virtually the same as the K8055(N) but comes fully assembled, whereas the latter has to be completed by soldering first.
-The digital outputs can be used from a script.
+mAirList supports the five digital inputs for triggering of [[reference:remote_control_commands|remote commands]] directly. The digital as well as the analogue outputs can be used via scripting.
 ===== Configuration =====
+=== Digital Inputs ===
 Open the standalone config app, or the Control Panel, go to the //Remote Control// section, and add a new //Vellemann K8055(N)// remote.

 First, you can set up the **device address** (corresponds to the jumpers on the board) and the **update interval** for polling.
-Then you can assign a command for each input 1-5, and for the event that the pin goes ON or OFF, respectively.

 ===== Scripting =====
+=== Digital Outputs ===
 To access a K8055 remote from a script, use the following function:

   K8055Remote(0).SetDigitalChannel(3);
+=== Analogue Outputs ===
+The analogue outputs can be actuated with the following method:
+  procedure OutputAnalogChannel(Channel, Value: integer);
+… where ''Channel'' resembles the number of the analogue output (i. e. ''1'' or ''2'') and ''Value'' is an integer value between ''0'' and ''255'':
+  * ''0'' leads to a voltage of 0V at the analogue or a duty factor of 0% at the PWM output, respectively.
+  * ''255'' leads to a voltage of 5V at the analogue or a duty factor of 100% at the PWM output.
+  * The effect of values lying in between these extremes can be characterised by:
+    * ''<Value> / 255 * 5V'' or
+    * ''<Value> / 255 * 100%'', respectively.
+Notably the PWM output can be taken advantage of driving an ON-AIR lamp directly, as long as it meets the voltage and current limits of the transistor used in the circuit (BC337 that is, as of fall 2019).
