358 -Before executing remote control commands, some devices require an initial permission signal to be sent to a dedicated register. This signal enables remote control functionality. Only after this permission is granted the device accepts and process the main remote control commands.
359 -
360 -To implement this type of remote control (TC) in CENTO, the following attributes are added to the object class (see Fig. 3.3.20):
361 -
362 -* **telecontrol_permit_on_ti** – permission to switch TC on;
363 -* **telecontrol_permit_off_ti** – permission to switch TC off.

381 -In some devices, a single tag handles this function, while in others, two separate tags perform it. These tags are configured similarly to those used for direct remote control, differing only in the register address (see Fig. 3.3.23):
