Getting to know the control panel
1. GETTING TO KNOW THE CONTROL PANEL.
The control panel is the nerve centre of the system.
With no buttons thanks to the innovative touch screen display, it enables accessing the system functions and the
menus that govern them by simply touching the icons or the words displayed.
1.1 Navigating through the control panel menus.
As said before, to navigate through the control panel menus simply touch the words or the icons displayed
till you reach the desired screen.
The control panel moreover also displays step by step indications of the operations to perform to reach the desired
menu or function.
Depending on the type of option to select, the touch can be made in four different ways:
MODE
ASSOCIATED SYMBOL

Brief and single touch
or
Prolonged pressure
Quick tap, movement in which the point of release is not significant; it is
equivalent to the action of pushing a virtual object with a finger to move it
quickly in a specific direction.
Dragging, movement in which the finger is released only after establishing
the final position for a certain fraction of time; it is equivalent to the action
of dragging a virtual object with a finger.
If you want to make a single movement it is advised to release the finger
only after seeing the movement.
If instead you want to make repeated movements you need to maintain the
pressure on the display.
The symbols shown in the table above are the ones used in this manual to indicate the method of selecting the
various menus of the control panel.
In general:
• To select an option in a list, it is necessary to highlight the desired item performing vertical
actions and then do a

important thing is that it is not over a button or an icon).
• It is possible to quickly scroll through the elements of a list by performing an action of

The initial scrolling speed is slow enough so as to allow reading the words; if you want to increase the speed it is
necessary to do a subsequent

actions is equivalent to all the display of the control panel and acts
on the element that has the active focus on the page.
• Being a touch screen display, it is advised to use a fingertip with a light pressure that however is more than just
skimming over it; performance increases if you press with a fingertip or even better with a nail.
• It is permissible to use a specific stylus for a touchscreen; whereas it is recommended not to use any sharp
object such as a pen, screwdriver, electric cable, etc., to avoid damaging the display.
Each action carried out on the display is associated with a different acoustic signal that is only played if the action
is permissible.
1.2 Control panel main screen.
The control panel's main screen displays the list relating to the main menus:
• HVAC;
• Temperature Probe;
• Scenarios;
• Events;
• Alarm System;
• Audio;
• Power Management.

If, after a time-out of approximately 90 s, no operation is carried out, the control panel display switches off, activating a stand-by screen that displays the time, day and date.
If personal security codes have been set (installer PIN, different users, etc.), access to the menus is only possible
after entering the code permitting use, by the user, only of the menus for which the user has been enabled (see
paragraph 4.5.4).
The control panel moreover enables creating different users (up to 17 users), each one of which is assigned a
specific password that associates the functions of the system that can be managed.
The types of user are the following:
• Administrator: your local installer who has full access to the parameters and to the configuration of the
system (he can therefore carry out any operation).
• Ev. Prog. User: a reserved system user (for the Events).
•G
uest: a generic user without a password that can only use some functions but cannot change them (for
example he cannot operate on the anti-theft system).
IMPORTANT: Always ask the installer to create your profile and assign it with privileges.

3.4 Creating or modifying the automatic program of a thermostat.
To access this menu it is necessary to enter the password of an enabled user (enabled by the installer when he
creates the various users).
Programming the HVAC zones is subdivided into two phases; selecting the desired temperature levels and the
subsequent time programming.
T1/T2/T3 are the 3 temperature levels you want to use during the day; for example, T1 can indicate the minimum
temperature in the night, T2 the average temperature when no one is at home and T3 the “comfort” temperature.
The time programming moreover enables setting a temperature value T every 20 minutes for each day of the week
obtaining the utmost in terms of comfort and savings.

3.4.1 Setting the automatic program
The By-me system can be used to create personalized programs for automatic heating or air-conditioning control.
The personalization consists of setting the value of a temperature level - that can be selected from between three
different ones (T1, T2 and T3) - every 20 minutes; in the heating and air-conditioning programs the values T1, T2
and T3 are differentiable.

Scenarios
6. SCENARIOS.
This menu is used to create, change and activate the scenarios of the home automation system.
The scenario can be compared to a "photograph" of the house (or part of it) in a specific situation and can include
lights (on/off), dimmer (level of brightness), roller shutters (up/down), thermostats (temperature settings and mode)
and audio (source and volume).
After being configured, the scenarios are saved in the control panel and in the devices involved; they can be called
up from the control panel, with the buttons, the remote controls and also with simple SMS text messages (in this
case there must be the GSM communicator).
The scenarios can only be activated and take the system into the previously saved situation; naturally, after activating a scenario, you can operate on the devices to vary their status manually.
The control panel is able to save up to 32 scenarios of which 4, at your choice, can be activated from the
main screen of the scenarios menu; in this connection ask your installer to associate the four scenarios
you will use most often with the first screen of the menu.
NB: If no association is made, the control panel automatically assigns the main screen with the first 4 scenarios
of the list of the 32 available ones.
Bear in mind that each function (called a "group" on the control panel) can be associated with at most 4
different scenarios; if this limit is exceeded the control panel will display an error message. It is therefore
useful to note down the functions associated with scenarios so as not to run into this eventuality. Lastly,
bear in mind that in the scenarios it is not possible to set roller shutters that remain half open.
6.1 Activating a scenario.
Scenarios  Select and touch
the scenario to activate  Proceed?  Yes
6.2 Creating a new scenario.
A scenario is normally created by the installer or by a user he has enabled.
The procedure is as follows:
1. Select the functional groups involved (this is done at the control panel);
2. Set the users of the groups concerned in the desired state (load ON, load OFF, load dimmed, roller shutter up,
roller shutter down, etc.). This operation must be carried out directly on the actuators and related controls;
3. Store the scenario in memory (this is done at the control panel);
4. Rename the scenario (this is done at the control panel).
Notice: The order in which the first operations 1 and 2 are performed is not important; it is necessary to remember
that the scenario will call up the state of all the actuators in the groups involved.
Scenarios  Setup  Add Normal scenario or Global scenario
Important:
•Select normal when the scenario is composed of functional groups belonging to a single control panel.
•Select global only when the scenario must be composed of functional groups belonging to a number of lines. In
this case, the “Create Scenario” operation must be performed on all the systems and the same Global scenario
must be selected on each of them.

volved in the scenario; the selection will be highlighted by the icon .
Touch Options
 Next to confirm.
In the scenario it is possible to add or remove all the configured groups by touching Select All and Deselect All
respectively.
The control panel asks you to set the state that the actuators will take on when the scenario is activated; using the
buttons of the groups involved set the users positioning them in the desired state (ON or OFF, roller shutter
raised or lowered, thermostat ON, etc.).
For the temperature/thermostated zones select the desired operating mode (for example Automatic, Manual
22.5°C) on the thermostats involved in the scenario.
Finally, for the audio zones select the desired source (RCA input, dock station for the iPod, etc.) and in the case
of FM radio select the desired FM station too and then the listening volume.
Touch
Mem and lastly confirm with Save.
For example, if a light already is lit and in the scenario you want to keep it lit, press the button to switch it on (as if
it were off at the moment); vice versa if a light is lit and you want to associate it off in the scenario, press the button
to switch it off.
In the case of the dimmer, select the desired level of brightness with the buttons.
For the roller shutters/shutters/curtains, use the up/down buttons to select the final position they need to have in
the scenario.
During this phase the green LED of the devices in the groups involved blink to make identification easier. Touch
Next; the control panel will confirm the operation carried out and will return to display the list of configured scenarios.

Events
7. EVENTS.
The Events menu enables implementing some advanced functions using the home automation system.
For example, it is possible to switch on the garden lights for a certain length of time, switch off all the lights in the
house on activating the alarm system when going out, activate a scenario when coming back in you deactivate
it, etc.
In addition it is possible to add time conditions to activate the events only in the desired time intervals and/or on
the occurrence of certain situations.
The structure of the event is composed of at most 2 inputs and 2 outputs that can be on/off functions (groups),
scenarios and conditions of the anti-theft system (for example on/off/alarm status).
In addition it is also possible to include a condition among the inputs and a condition that allows making the events
more flexible (for example it switches on garden watering at a set time only IF it is not raining, or it lowers the roller
shutters at a set time only IF it is dark).
The Events menu enables:
- stopping and restarting the selected event manually;
- controlling the users (outputs) associated with the event even if it is not active;
- changing the event on and/or off times;
- viewing the structure of the event.
7.1 Stopping or restarting an event.
The initial screen of the Events menu, which is accessed via the Main Menu, displays one of the created programs. For example

Burglar alarm system
8. INTRUSION DETECTION ALARM SYSTEM.
The menu that manages the alarm system is called the SAI control panel and is active only if the By-me intrusion detection alarm system is also installed.
The system is managed according to "zones" and "partitions"; the zones are associated with the alarm sensors
(for example bedroom IR sensor, kitchen window contact, etc.) while a group of zones is called a "partition" (for
example all the contacts of the day zone, etc.).
The alarms displayed/signalled can be of different types:
- Intrusion alarm (intruders in the active zones of the system).
- Tamper alarm (tampering damaging the system devices).
- Technical alarm (for example water sensor, gas sensor, etc.). This is a type of alarm that does not activate the
sirens but generates the signals via GSM (if there is the communicator), it closes the solenoid valves, etc.
- No mains (with no mains power the battery powered back-up unit triggers to power the system).

Power management
9. POWER MANAGEMENT.
The power management functions of the By-me system let you control the consumption of your system and see
both instantaneous values and historical values of the electrical and other (water, gas) measurements.
The functions are grouped into three main menus:
-L
oad control: via the load control module it enables monitoring the amount of mains power being consumed in
order to prevent the meter from being tripped due to overload and disconnecting the controlled loads according
to priority, if necessary.
- Measurement control: allows your installer to configure the measuring devices that will allow you to view data
on the touch screen or the Web Server.
- Alarm control: allows you to view/reset any alarms related to the controlled loads.
9.1 Load control.
For each user, you can set how to handle the load control by choosing from the following options:
• Auto OFF/ON: automatic load connection and disconnection depending on the amount of power consumed
and the group's priority
• Forced ON: load always on, irrespective of the input conditions.
• Forced OFF: load always off, irrespective of the input conditions.
For each load, you can from the control panel or touch screen select the Auto OFF/ON and Forced ON mode
setting; with the events programmes available on the control panel you can then set one or more loads in Forced
OFF mode (typically used to time the activation/deactivation of specific loads).
9.1.1 Displaying the level of power consumed.
With the control panel you can at any time view the instantaneous power consumed by the system. Furthermore,
if the system is also monitoring a production plant, the instantaneous power generated in the system will be
displayed.
