3.3. Set night_time re-cooling (ventilation)

3.3. Adjust frost alarm

3.3. Set movement limitations (windows)

Indoor information

Temperature in degrees Celsius (°C)

Air humidity in %RH



You may select which indoor information is displayed (e. g. if several sensors are connected).

 System > Installation > Weather Display

 6.1. Indoor sensor for weather display

The general weather situation is shown graphically:

Sunny or cloudy:

The sun moves across the sky according to its current direction and height.

Rain:

When there is a precipitation report and temperatures above -3 °C, it is raining.

Snow:

When there is a precipitation report and temperatures below -3 °C, it is snowing.



Night:

At night (twilight) the display will be darker; instead of the sun, the moon and stars will appear.

The date and time will be shown on the lower right on the display. The following symbols are displayed, depending on which source the time signal is from:

GPS reception (from weather station) Satellite

Reception of time via KNX bus

(WS1000 Color)

Position must be entered manually for shading control:

 System > WS1000 Settings > Settings > Position

 6.2.1.Enter position

2.2.

The touch display

Clock

Manual control, as well as setting the defaults for the automatic functions and the connected equipment, is via the control’s touch display. The button surfaces are operated in this area by touching the display. When a button is activated, there is visual feedback and a brief audio signal sounds.

If the push buttons shown do not match up with the touch-sensitive surfaces (you have to press “next to the button”), the touch display can be calibrated as follows.

 System > WS1 / WS1000 Settings > Settings > Calibrate touch

 6.2.1. Calibrate touch

Operating the display with long fingernails will not damage the screen or the touch function. Touching the display with very hard or pointed objects (e.g. those made from glass, gems or metal) should be avoided as this can cause marks.

2.3.

Manually operate drives and devices

2.3.1. The „Manual“ menu

You can reach the menu for manual control of drives and equipment by using the button Manual:



Here you can operate all connected drives and devices directly: Use the buttons to select the name of the drive or device you want to operate. You can change the order of the list in the System menu.

 System > Installation > Channel Order

 6.1. Define channel order

Use the arrow keys to scroll through the list.

The selected device is marked in white. On the right-hand side you will receive status information (e.g. on/off, open/closed, exhaust air level, error messages) and various control options (up/down arrow keys or on/off buttons).

The Down and Up buttons are fitted with automatic time functions. The drive can be precisely positioned with brief button presses (less than 1 second, short audio signal).

For shutters and roller blinds, only a short step-movement command is triggered. If the button is pressed for longer than 1 second (higher audio signal: locking signal), the drive moves independently to the end position. A brief press in the opposite direction stops the drive.

For shades and windows, the movement position is shown in percent above the Up-/

Down buttons (for blinds, also the slat position). For radio motor control units, the position shown can deviate from the movement position set in the automatic mode by up to 2%.

If a drive group is momentarily blocked for manual operation by a rain, wind or frost

alarm, the arrow keys will be greyed out and may not be used. The message “Rain

alarm” and/or “Wind alarm” is shown.



The frost alarm can be deactivated by pressing the corresponding button (see diagram); manual operation is then possible again. The frost block will then be first active for this drive again when it is reactivated manually or the next time the frost alarm is triggered.

The drive and hangings may be damaged if a firmly frozen outdoor shading is moved!

Manu Auto

Whether a drive or device is in automatic mode or manually operated can be recognised from the white marking on the buttons on the right and the text “Auto” next to the name button in the list on the left. By pressing the button you can switch from one to another.

After being operated manually the drive or device remains in manual mode. The automatic functions are thus switched off and only the rain and wind protection will be carried out. The equipment will only switch back into automatic mode when reset by hand

(“Manu” button) or through the daily automatic reset. In the Automatic menu, the automatic reset can be activated separately for each drive group and each device.

Automatic Reset

This button allows you to perform the automatic reset manually. All systems for which an automatic reset has been set are then set to automatic mode.

Back to the weather data display (starting image)

2.3.2. External buttons

As well as operating the controls via the display, it is possible to connect external buttons (wall buttons) to the control unit. In the System menu the individual buttons can be assigned to any drives or devices.

 System > Installation > Ext. Buttons

 6.1. Assign external buttons

2.3.3. Internal buttons (group buttons)

It is possible to operate several drives or devices at the same time via a collective group button (internal software button). This makes it possible to close all windows with a



single button press, for example. These group buttons can be set up in the System menu.

 System > Installation > Int. Buttons

 6.1. Assign internal buttons (group buttons)

2.3.4. Remote control

Drives and equipment can be controlled by using the remote controller Remo 8, which can be ordered among the accessories. The hand-held transmitter must be configured in the control as a participant to the radio network. Then follows the allocation of drives and equipment to the eight remote control channels. In the control, several Remo 8 devices can be configured.

 6.1. Wireless connections

2.4.

Navigation in the System menu

All settings for drives and devices, for the automation and the control system are changed in the System menu, which you reach via the System button:

In three sub-menus you can carry out the following adjustments:

Automatic settings

In the menu System > Automatic Settings you can make the following adjustments:

• Define automatic functions for the individual drives and devices

• Adjust general automatic settings: Twilight value, movement delays, timer, ventilation block, night time re-cooling, frost alarm and automatic reset

In order to set the automatic functions, the basic settings must already have been made.

 6. Basic setting

Please adjust the settings for drives and devices to your individual circumstances. Only in this way can alarm and blocking functions like rain or wind warnings help to protect external awnings or prevent rain from coming in through the window.

3.1.1. Safety notice for automatic and alarm functions

When it starts to rain, depending on the amount of rain and the temperature, some time may pass before the rain is recognised by the weather station. For electrically-operated windows or sliding roofs, a closing time must also be taken into account. Moisture-sensitive objects should therefore not be placed in an area where they may be damaged by precipitation penetrating inside. Please remember also that, for example, when it starts to rain during a power outage, the windows will no longer close automatically, if no emergency power generator is fitted.

Please note that the rails of externally mounted blinds, awnings and shutters can ice up. If the drive group is then moved, the shade and drives may suffer damage.

It is imperative you take care that no-one is in the movement area of the equipment parts moved by electrical motors (danger of crushing!).

The appropriate building regulations are to be observed.

3.1.2. Power failure, maintenance works, etc.

(restart of control)

If a power outage occurs, the control unit can no longer control the connected drives!

If the functional scope must be guaranteed even during a power cut, an emergency power unit with a corresponding switch from network power to emergency operation should be installed by the customer.

Settings saved in the control unit programme will be maintained even during a power outage.



If cleaning or maintenance work is to be carried out in the conservatory/building, the control unit should be de-energised and secure against restart by disconnection of the customer-installed fuse. This ensures that the connected drives cannot start.

After every re-start (e. g. return of voltage after mains failure or manual reset) all drives and devices are in automatic mode.

3.2.

Automatic settings for drive groups and devices

3.2.1. Drives and devices without automatic functions

Devices connected via the “Dimmer” output (e.g. lighting) have no automatic functions. They can however be operated manually via the display.

Sliding doors also have no automatic functions. They can also be operated manually

via the display. In addition, sliding doors can be fitted with a close-contact (connection to a multifunctional input). In this way the control unit knows whether the door is open or closed.

3.2.2. Automatic awning settings

For connected awnings or awning groups the following automatic settings can be changed:

• Light intensity

• Direction of sun

• Height of sun

• Movement position

• Indoor sensor to be used for the awning

• Indoor temperature block

• Outdoor temperature block

• Frost alarm

• Wind alarm

• Rain alarm

• Enable/Disable automatic reset

Alarm functions

Alarm functions are used for awnings in manual and in automatic mode.

Fire alarm of a smoke detector has highest priority. All awnings are retracted and can-

not be influenced either by automatic or manual.



During frost, wind or rain alarm the awnings are retracted and cannot be manually extended.

Shade settings

The settings are only executed if an awning is in automatic mode and none of the alarm functions named above is active.

Highest priority is assigned to the outdoor temperature-block, followed by the in-

door temperature-block (retract).

Only when the direction and height of the sun agree and there is no active block is the

automatic shading by light intensity engaged.

Night-time Cooling

Using the arrow keys, set the outdoor temperature at which the night-time re-cooling shall be active (e. g. higher than 20°C). Remember that the night-time re-cooling only starts when the outdoor temperature is more than 2.0°C above the pre-set value. The night-time re-cooling is de-activated again as soon as the outdoor temperature drops below the pre-set value.

Also set the period for which the outdoor temperature must have been above the minimum temperature (e. g. longer than 48 hours).


Night-time re-cooling will stop when the set outdoor temperature is undercut by 2°C for a specified period of time. This period depends on the set trigger period and on how long this temperature has been exceeded. It is a maximum of one third of the set trigger period (e.g. max. 12 hours for a 48-hour trigger period).



3.3.6. Adjust frost alarm

The frost alarm for shades and windows will be active when during or after precipitation the outdoor temperature falls below a defined level.

The weather data display (Start screen) then shows “Frost alarm” next to the outdoor temperature value. The display can also show “Night-time re-cooling” and “Window movement limitation” in turn.


You adjust which shades will be retracted and which windows will be closed in the automatic functions for the individual shades and windows.

The following situations trigger the frost alarm:

• The outdoor temperature is below the set frost alarm temperature and ist starts to rain/snow.

• The outdoor temperature falls below the set frost alarm temperature while it is raining/snowing.

• Rain/snow has stopped. The outdoor temperature falls belowing the set frost alarm temperature within the set standby period after the end of precipitation.

Then set how many hours after precipitation the standby for the frost alarm should be active (e.g. 5 hrs). Choose the standby period so that all humidity of the previous precipitation has dried.

Then set the conditions for the end of the frost alarm. Set the outdoor temperature to be exceeded (e.g. 5.0°C) and the duration for which it should be exceeded (e.g. 5 hrs).

Choose the time period so that ice is completely melted thereafter.

The Off button lets you deactivate the frost alarm for all shades and windows.




3.3.7. Set movement limitations (window)

A movement limitation ensures that a window remains only open a portion at low outdoor temperatures. This prevents the room from cooling too rapidly.

The weather data display (Start screen) then shows “Window movement limitation” next to the outdoor temperature value. The display can also show “Night-time re-cooling” and “Frost alarm” in turn.


You can set the degree to which the opening is restricted for individual windows in the automatic functions.

The Off button lets you deactivate the movement limitation for all windows.


3.3.8. Setting a wind delay (shades)

When the wind limitation value is exceeded for a drive, the wind alarm is then triggered for 5 minutes. If the wind value is once again exceeded within this period, the 5-minute stop time restarts from scratch.

For shades, a delay time can also be set following the wind alarm, during which the shade automation is blocked. This means that if the shade is in automatic mode before a wind alarm, the automatic setting remains switched off after the wind alarm. Further manual operation is however possible again.

You can reach the wind delay time settings by pressing the buttons:

Once the general Automatic Function time point is reached, drives and units are once again set to Automatic. Alternatively, the automatic function can be set to reactivate following a manual intervention. The period for this can be set.

The Automatic Reset prevents drives from being manually operated and then stay in an unfavourable position (leaving windows accidentally open, or blinds retracted despite the sunlight).

4.1.

Procedure

Installation, inspection, commissioning and troubleshooting must only be carried out by a competent electrician.

To install the control unit, proceed as follows:

1. Installation

2. Commissioning

3. Basic settings in the menu System > Installation (with selection of the time zone in the System > WS1 / WS1000 Settings menu).

4. Automatic settings in the menu System > Automatic Settings.

This chapter describes the installation. Read through the notes and instructions for the individual components carefully. First of all fit all components and connect the cables to the control unit, drives and devices. Then check all components and continue with the commissioning.

4.1.1. Notes on installation

Warning, mains voltage!

National legal regulations are to be observed.

Installation, inspection, commissioning and troubleshooting of the device must only be carried out by a competent electrician.

Disconnect all lines to be assembled, and take safety precautions against accidental switch-on.

The device is exclusively intended for appropriate use. With each inappropriate change or non-observance of the instructions for use, any warranty or guarantee claim will be void.

After unpacking the device, check immediately for any mechanical damages. In case of transport damage, this must immediately notified to the supplier.

If damaged, the device must not be put into operation.

If an operation without risk may supposedly not be guaranteed, the device must be put out of operation and be secured against accidental operation.

The device must only be operated as stationary system, i.e. only in a fitted state and after completion of all installation and start-up works, and only in the environment intended for this purpose.

Elsner Elektronik does not assume any liability for changes in standards after publication of this instruction manual.


69 Installation

4.1.2. Notes on wireless equipment

When planning facilities with devices that communicate via radio, adequate radio reception must be guaranteed. The range of wireless control will be limited by legal regulation and structural circumstances. Avoid sources of interference and obstacles between receiver and transmitter, that could disturb the wireless communication. Those would be for example:

• Walls and ceilings (especially concrete).

• Metal surfaces next to the wireless participants (e. g. aluminium construction of a conservatory).

• Other wireless devices and powerful local transmitters (e.g. wireless headphones), which transmit on the same frequency (868,2 MHz). Please maintain a minimum distance of 30 cm between wireless transmitters for that reason.

The transmission performance and reception sensitivity can be improved by means of an external antenna. During installation, a conduit should be placed beneath the recessed housing, in which the external antenna can be mounted.

4.1.3. Safety notice for automatic and alarm functions

When it starts to rain, depending on the amount of rain and the temperature, some time may pass before the rain is recognised by the weather station. For electrically-operated windows or sliding roofs, a closing time must also be taken into account. Moisture-sensitive objects should therefore not be placed in an area where they may be damaged by precipitation penetrating inside. Please remember also that, for example, when it starts to rain during a power outage, the windows will no longer close automatically, if no emergency power generator is fitted.

Please note that the rails of externally mounted blinds, awnings and shutters can ice up. If the drive group is then moved, the shade and drives may suffer damage.

It is imperative you take care that no-one is in the movement area of the equipment parts moved by electrical motors (danger of crushing!).

The appropriate building regulations are to be observed.

4.1.4. Power failure, maintenance works, etc.

(restart of control)

If a power outage occurs, the control unit can no longer control the connected drives!

If the functional scope must be guaranteed even during a power cut, an emergency power unit with a corresponding switch from network power to emergency operation should be installed by the customer.


70 Installation

Settings saved in the control unit programme will be maintained even during a power outage.

If cleaning or maintenance work is to be carried out in the conservatory/building, the control unit should be de-energised and secure against restart by disconnection of the customer-installed fuse. This ensures that the connected drives cannot start.

After every re-start (e. g. return of voltage after mains failure or manual reset) all drives and devices are in automatic mode.

Choose an installation position in the building where wind, rain and sun can be measured unhindered by the sensors. The weather station must not be installed underneath any structural parts from which water can still drip onto the rain sensor after it has stopped raining or snowing. The weather station must not be shaded by anything, such as building structures or trees. There must be at least 60 cm of free space underneath the weather station to allow it to measure the wind correctly and to prevent it from being snowed in when it snows. Please take note that an extended awning does not shade the device from sun and wind.

Temperature measurements can also be affected by external influences such as by warming or cooling of the building structure on which the sensor is mounted, (sunlight, heating or cold water pipes).

Magnetic fields, transmitters and interfering fields from electricity consumers (e.g. fluorescent lamps, neon signs, switched-mode power supplies etc.) can interfere with or even cut out reception of the GPS signal.

The weather station lid with the rain sensor latches into place on the lower edge to the right and left. Remove the lid from the weather station. Proceed carefully to avoid tearing off the cable connection between the circuit board in the lower section and the rain sensor in the lid (cable with plug).

Lead the connection cable through the rubber seal on the underside of the weather station and connect it to the terminals provided.

The power supply cable to the weather station should be a maximum of 300 m long.

The connection is made with a standard, UV-resistant telephone cable (A-2Y(L)2Y

2x2x0.6 or A-2Y(L)2Y 2x2x0.8).

Push the housing from above into the fitted holder. In doing this, the studs in the holder must click in to the tracks on the housing.

For removal purposes, the weather station can be pulled upwards against the resistance of the notches.

4.2.2. Installation notes for the weather station

Do not open the weather station when water (rain) can enter into it: Even a few drops may damage the electronics.

During installation care must be taken that the temperature sensor (small plate on the underside of the housing) is not damaged. The cable connection between the plate and the rain sensor should also not be torn off or bent when being connected.

After installation, remove all transport protection stickers present.

The wind measurement can first be output 60 seconds after applying the supply voltage.

Maintenance

The weather station must be checked for dirt on a regular, twice-yearly basis and cleaned if necessary. A dirty weather station can lead to strange results, such as the wind sensor failing to work, the station constantly announcing rain, or failure to detect sunlight.

Installation of a WGTH-UP Indoor

Sensor

The WS1 Style control system has an indoor sensor integrated into the central unit.

Further external sensors can additionally be installed. The WS1000 Style control system comes with an indoor sensor WGTH-UP included in the delivery.

The WGTH-UP Indoor Sensor transfers temperature and humidity to the control system via radio. Several separate WGTH-UP can be taught to one control system. The teaching is described in the chapter “Learn wireless connections” (manual of the control system).


74 Installation

The WGTH-UP Indoor Sensor consists of the housing, the sensor PCB/base plate and a frame. As an alternative to the supplied frame, a frame of the switch series used in the building may be used. You will additionally require a junction box (Ø 60 mm, 42 mm deep, not included in scope of delivery).

For power supply (7...30 V DC), e. g. 12 V DC can be tapped from the connection board of the control unit (multifunctional input).

4.3.1. Installation of the indoor sensor

Installation location

The interior sensor is to be installed flush to the wall surface in a junction box (Ø 60 mm, 42 mm deep). When selecting an installation location, please ensure that the measurement results are affected as little as possible by external influences. Possible sources of interference include:

• Direct sunlight

• Drafts from windows and doors

• Draft from ducts which lead from other rooms to the junction box in which the sensor is mounted.

• Waste heat from the control unit (when mounted above the display)

• Warming or cooling of the building structure on which the sensor is mounted, e.g. due to sunlight, heating or cold water pipes

• Connection lines which lead from warmer or colder areas to the sensor

Temperature variations from such sources of interference must be corrected in the control unit menu in order to ensure the specified accuracy of the sensor (see manual chapter on Wireless connections > Status).

The indoor sensor must only be installed and used in dry, interior spaces. Avoid condensation.

4.4.3. Connect drives and devices

Connect drive groups

Each drive that must be controlled individually requires a group of its own. It is not possible to individually control drives that are connected in a group. Only drives with the same function (only windows, only awnings, only blinds, only shutters) can be brought together in groups.

Shades with different orientations (east, south, west) should be placed in different groups. Only in this way can the shades be controlled appropriately according to the position of the sun.

Drives can be kept in secure position by using safety contacts (multifunctional inputs).

Take note that a safety contactis not capable of preventing collisions (e.g. if an awning is installed over a window).


88 Installation

The device works with 230 V alternating voltage 50 Hz. The input power is dependent on the number and power of the connected motors.

On the WS1/WS1000 Color version (for 230V drives), each drive outlet must have a maximum 400-watt load. The total installed input must not however exceed approx.

1.5 kW. The output voltage is 230 V AC.

On the WS1/WS1000 Color-PF version (with potential-free drive outputs), each relay must have a maximum 400-watt load.

When motors are connected in parallel, take note of whether a group control relay is prescribed by the manufacturer. Group control relays can be obtained from Elsner

Elektronik or the motor manufacturer.

Various drives for blinds and awnings, in particular, can for the most part only be operated via a group control relay on an output channel.

If motors are connected in parallel which are unsuitable for this purpose, both they and the control unit will be damaged.

Motors with a higher power input than 400 Watt are to be operated via a relay or control gate with its own power cable.

For D.C. drives we offer appropriate power supply units. In case of need we ask for details of the motor type, the manufacturer and – if available – the technical data.

Connect devices to the multifunctional outputs

Heatings, air-conditioners, lights, ventilation devices, roof gutter heatings, dimmers or alarm devices (e.g. alarm equipment in combination with a motion detector in a multifunctional input) can be connected to the multifunctional outputs.

The multifunctional outputs have a potential-free make contact which can be loaded with 230 V AC/2 A.

Connect devices to the multifunctional inputs

Devices with potential-free contacts can be connected to the multifunctional inputs.

These can be alarm-reporting devices, such as motion-detectors or smoke detectors

(with relay output) or another device with a potential-free contact, which is then crucial for the alarm function.

A smoke alarm at the multi-functional input does not fulfil the requirements for a smoke alarm system.

A heating or cooling plant operated independently of the control system can be connected to a multifunction input using its potential-free contact. Through the closed relay, the device signals the control that it is currently heating or cooling and the control activates the ventilation block.


89 Installation

A closed contact on the multifunction input can be used to test if a sliding door is closed.

An impulse transmitter for the automatic reset can also be connected here, e.g. a sensor device or an alarm unit (impulse when activating).

Connecting drives and devices wirelessly

Connecting drives and devices wirelessly is achieved by means of an Elsner wireless modules (RF relay, RR-MSG). Elsner Elektronik ventilation devices can be learned into the control system without any additional equipment. Please observe the installation instructions relating to the wireless relays, motor control devices and ventilation devices.

91 Commissioning

5. Commissioning



5.1.

Procedure

Installation, testing, commissioning and fault repair should only be carried out by a qualified electrician.

To install the control unit, proceed as follows:

• Installation

• Commissioning

• Basic setting in the menu System > Installation

• Automatic settings in the menu System > Automatic Settings

This chapter describes the commissioning of the device. Prior to commissioning all components must be installed (fitted and with their cables connected). Read through the notes and instructions carefully.

5.1.1. Start control unit

ICondensation water can occur if a device is taken from a cold into a warm room. Before the commissioning of the control take care that there is no humidity inside the device

(let dry if necessary).

After installation, connecting cables to the unit and checking all connections, switch the power supply on.

The control unit starts and in the display the model and serial number appear initially.

Then the following will be shown

• “Read drive parameter OK“

(or if there is an error: “Error initialising drive parameter with factory settings.”)

• “Wireless interface”

(or if there is an error: “Wireless interface error”)

• “Wireless channel initialised OK“

(or if there is an error: “Wireless channel initialisation error”)

After successfully running through the initial test sequence, the control unit will be in the starting position with a display of weather data. Weather data is displayed if the control system is receiving data (brightness, sun direction and height, precipitation, wind, temperature, and indoor room data). The weather animation is only shown when there no error messages are displayed.

The time is automatically displayed when the unit receives time /date information, otherwise, the time can be set manually. Also a time zone (if there is a GPS weather station



on the control system) and location (if there is a DCF77 weather station on the control system) must be set.

 System > WS1/1000 Settings > Settings > Location

 6.2. Enter location

5.1.2. Check sensor functions

On the display the current values for sun, wind and outdoor temperature are shown.

First check the sensor functions.

Light intensity (sun sensor)

The sunlight sensor is beneath the weather station lid. If there is not enough brightness at the moment, light up the weather station with a powerful table lamp until a value is shown.

Direction and height (sun)

The direction and height of the sun is calculated by the control unit based on the date/ time and location. The time is set upon receipt of a time signal from the unit itself (can take up to 10 minutes). If no signal is available, the time can be set manually. If a weather station with GPS receiver is connected to the control system, the time zone must be selected from the menu. With a DCF77 receiver, the geographical location of the building must be input.

 6.2. Enter time and date manually

 System > WS1/1000 Settings > Settings > Location

 6.2. Enter location (only DCF weather stations)

Precipitation (Precipitation sensor)

Precipitation is shown with the “Rain” or “Snow” animation in the display. Moisten the golden sensor surface on the weather station lid (often the moisture from the surface of the skin when touching is enough). The “Precipitation” animation should then begin.

Please take note that after the sensors dry out, the precipitation warning remains for a further 5 minutes.



Wind speed (wind sensor)

If the sensor tube on the underside of the weather station is blown into, the corresponding wind speed in metres per second appears in the display alongside the animated windsock.

Temperature

The outdoor temperature is shown next to the symbol “thermometer next to house”.

If reasonable values are shown, correct functioning can be assumed.

If there is an indoor sensor (internal sensor of WS1 Color or external wireless sensor

WGTH-UP), the values are shown next to the symbol “thermometer inside house”. RH specifies the relative humidity. Normal values are approx. 25% RH to 65% RH in living rooms. After installation it may be a few hours before the hygrometer shows normal values.

 4. Installation and 5. Commissioning

6.1.1. Set up drives and drive groups

The WS1 Color-0 model offers no drive outputs. The “Drive” key is grey. In

this case, drives can still be controlled via radio motor control units (see 6.1. Wireless

connections).

Windows, awnings and blinds are controlled in various ways. For example, windows are opened or closed according to the temperature or air humidity, but blinds are opened or closed according to the light or time. For this reason it is imperative that, when started up, the control unit be adjusted accordingly.

The basic settings for the drives can be accessed by pressing the buttons:

Tips on connecting windows

With windows the supply of fresh air can be very well regulated using the Step window configuration. In this, the control unit checks the room temperature every 3 minutes. If the temperature is close to the reference value, the window will be opened or closed



step by step. You can adjust the number of steps in the Automation menu (“Number of steps” button).

For sliding roofs, during normal operation of ventilators, it is not necessary to use the full stroke. For that reason you can adjust the size of the opening in the Automatic menu ("Movement position" button). If the sliding roof should be opened fully, this can take place manually.

Not all window motors are suitable for step or sunroof operation. Ask your motor supplier.

6.1.2. Assign external buttons

If external buttons for operating drives and devices on the spot are installed, their settings and assignments can be made here.

Single buttons (toggle buttons) can be installed and allocated the function Button.

Equipment such as heating, cooling, ventilation, lighting and/or gutter heating are thereby switched on and off alternately.

To be able to control a dimmer, the single button must be allocated the function of the

 Button.

Double buttons (unlocked serial buttons) are allocated the function of the  But-

ton. If, in these settings, the button is allocated the shading and/or window functions,

then the button has its own internal timer, i.e. a short pressing of the button works according to the "dead man's principle": if pressed for longer (> 1 second), the drive travels up to the end position (self-stop mode).

If such a double button is allocated a switchable device (lighting, heating, etc.), then the Up button switches on and the Down button off.

The external button settings can be accessed by pressing the buttons:

Installation

System Ext. Button

You can now select individual buttons from the list and adjust their settings. So long as no settings have been completed yet, the buttons will show (Ext. Button 1), (Ext.

6.1.5. Set up multifunctionals inputs

To the multifunctional inputs you can connect:

• alarm signal (motion or smoke detectors)

• climate indicators (e.g. a climate/heating unit that is independent of the control

• safty contacts

• close-contacts (for sliding doors)

• impulse for automatic reset

• signal for activation of the camera picture (binary input)

Specify here which devices are connected to the individual inputs.

When a motion-detector alarm is triggered and a sensor signal recognised, all windows connected to the control unit will be closed. After 5 minutes without a new sensor signal the control unit switches back to normal operation.

 7.3. Messages in the weather data display

The fire alarm activates various safety measures: awnings, blinds and shutters retract in order to clear an escape route, the light comes on, heatings and air-conditioning units switch off, windows and ventilators are opened or switched on. While the fire alarm is triggered an acoustic warning signal sounds at the control unit. The fire alarm can only be switched off by a Reset/Restart of the control system through the System

> WS1 / WS1000 Settings > Service > Reset menu or by cutting off the power sup-

ply.

 7.3. Messages in the weather data display

A heating or climate unit (climate detector) that works independent of the control unit can be connected to a multifunctional input with its potential-free relaiy contact.

The device signals the control via the closed relay contact that it is heating or cooling.

The control then closes all windows and switches off the ventilators. If the device opens the relay contact again, the control will hold the windows closed for a variable time and leave the ventilators switched off.


A safety contact can be connected to the multifunctional inputs which will then be assigned to a drive output. If the safety contact is opened, then the drive will advance to the safe position (window closes, shade retracts) and manual operation is blocked.

This can ensure that the blind on a terrace door can't descend if the door is open. Take note that a safety contactis not capable of preventing collisions (e.g. if an awning is installed over a window).

A closed contact can be used on a multi-function input in order to determine if a sliding door is completely closed.

The multifunctional inputs may be used as the trigger for automatic reset. The input impulse may come e.g. following the pressing of a button or alarm activation.

If cameras are connected to the control system, the setting Binary Input can be used to activate the image display. For example, the signal can be connected to a bell on a



multifunctional input and this can be configured as a binary input. Then the image of a camera can be shown in the screen as soon as the bell is rung.

The settings for the multifunctional inputs can be accessed by pressing the buttons:

Installation

7.1.

Care and maintenance

Maintenance of the weather station

The weather station must be checked for dirt on a regular, twice-yearly basis and cleaned if necessary. A dirty weather station can lead to strange results, such as the wind sensor failing to work, the station constantly announcing rain, or failure to detect sunlight.

Maintenance of the control unit

Finger marks on the touch screen are best removed with a damp cloth or a microfiber cloth. You can wipe the buttons without activating them.

Do not use abrasives / detergents or aggressive cleaners for cleaning.

If there is a power outage, the data you have entered will be saved for around 10 years.

No battery is required for this. Once power is restored, the clock must be set again. If there is time signal reception this takes place automatically.

7.2.5. Units for sun and wind

The display of sun intensity is in lux or kilolux and is shortened in the display to lx or klx. The value 1 is reached even with overcast skies, 20 klx if the sun has just come out again and 100 klx is reached when there are cloudless skies at noon. Experience indicates that extending shades above 40 klx is to be recommended.

The display of wind speed is in meters per second and is shortened in the display to m/s. Depending on the position of the building and the installation position of the weather station, different values may be optimal in order to protect the shade or window. Observe the response of the awning or blinds or the window to wind and then correct the wind value accordingly.

The following table should make it easier to find the optimal values for your situation:

Alarm and error messages

7.3.1. Weather data display messages

Various alarm and error messages can appear in the weather data display. In this case no weather animation will be shown.

Alarm from motion detector

is shown when a connected motion sensor has been activated. When there is a motiondetector alarm, windows close automatically; if applicable, the light is switched on. After 5 minutes without another signal from the motion detector, the warning disappears and the control system returns the windows to normal automatic mode.

Fire alarm! By “XX” (sensor name)

is shown if the control system receives a signal from a smoke detector. At the same time awnings and blinds retract, the light comes on, heatings and air conditioners switch off, windows and ventilators open/switch on. Manual operation is blocked. A warning system sounds at the control system. The fire alarm can only be switched off by a Reset/Restart of the control system through the System > WS1 / WS1000 Set-

tings > Service > Reset menu or by cutting off the power supply.

Please set clock!

is shown when the control system is first started or after a restart. As soon as a time signal is received, this message disappears. If no reception is available, please set the clock by hand.

 System > WS1 / WS1000 settings > Settings > Time and Date

 6.2. Enter time and date manually

Connection to weather station failed!

means that the control system is receiving no data from the weather station. Check the connection lead to the weather station and examine it if necessary. Manual operation of drives and devices without rain or wind alarm is still possible. Drives with selected rain or wind alarm move to the safe position.

RF868 wireless module faulty!

means that the internal wireless module is not working properly. Contact customer service to have the control unit checked.


129

KNX interface faulty!

(only for WS1000 Color with KNX interface)

Indicates an error or defect in the KNX interface. There is no communication with the bus. If the ETS is set to allow weather data to be received from the bus, a wind or rain alarm is triggered on the control system. Get in touch with customer support to check the interface.

Camera interface faulty!

(only when a camera interface is installed)

Indicates an error or defect in the camera interface. Get in touch with customer support to check the interface.

Configuration memory faulty!

means that the memory for the automatic settings is not working properly. Contact customer service to have the control unit checked.

7.3.2. “Manual” menu messages

The manual menu displays the status of the drives, devices and sensors as well as any error messages (e. g. on/off, exhaust speed, slat position, etc.).

No response! Or Sensor fault as a status message from a wireless device

(e. g. wireless fan, drive to RF-MSG or WGTH-UP wireless sensor)

The control system receives no further information from the wireless receiver. Check the status of the wireless connection under System > Installation > Wireless con-

nection > Status. If the wireless system has a problem, this displays “Wireless status:

Receiver timeout”. Have the affected device checked.

Fault!

as a status message from a KNX bus device

Indicates an error or fault in the KNX interface. There is no communication with the bus. If the ETS is set to allow weather data to be received from the bus, a wind or rain alarm is triggered on the control system. Get in touch with customer support to check the interface.

No measurement value received or Position unknown

as a status message from a wireless/KNX sensor or a KNX actuator

The control system has not yet received any data from a configured sensor (wireless or KNX) or KNX actuator. Once data is received, the message disappears.
