## Destinations feature launched {{% label type="new" %}} {{% label type="homelok-web" %}} {{% label type="nebula-app" %}} {#destinations}

Salto Homelok now supports destinations, alongside a new {{< glossary_term "output_expansion_unit" >}}output expansion unit{{< /glossary_term >}} accessory for the BLUEnet Controller.
Destinations represent secured access points within an installation, such as elevator floors, that only activate for users with appropriate permissions.
The primary use case is elevator control, where presenting a key at a reader only activates the buttons for the floors a user has access to.

The output expansion unit adds up to 4 additional relays to a BLUEnet Controller, so you can control more destinations or doors from a single controller.

Destinations can only be configured using Homelok web, in conjunction with the [Nebula Commissioning app](/nebula/user-guide/installer).
The Homelok app does not support creating destinations.
