3. FUNCTIONS
3.1 Introduction
One function depending , of the Binding and of the parameters of configuration , is possible with
this product
The network management tools can be controlled .
NOTA:each network variable is defined in the functional profile 157990 version 1.0

3.2 Brightness measurement
The interface measures continuously the brightness from one or two sensors .When they are 2
of them , it compares the two values and takes into account the highest one .
It transmits the measured value on the network:
-every time it crosses one of the 15 possible values of the threshold .
A threshold value can be set through a 16 position coding wheel , bound via the network
with a actuator interface.
-when it has changed by more than x% , x being set by the network .
-When the timer « Brightness max send time » expires . This timer can be configured.
A yellow LED is turned on the product as soon as and as long as the actual value is higher than
the threshold , except during the intuitive installation process .
These configuration variables are linked with :
SNVT_lev_cont nciSnSendOnDelta ;
SNVT_lux nciSnThresTable[0...15] ;
SNVT_elapsed_tm nciStsMaxSendT ;
3.3 Configuration variables
WARNING :
-ncisnGain
-nciOffset
-nciSnMaxRange
-nciSnMinRange
-nciSnAverage
These are manufacturer parameter . Never change it without manufacturer’s
consent .
3.4 Network management tools
With a supervision , the status of each object in the node (nviRequest) can be asked and
reported by output variables (nvoStatus).
The node object provides Object Status.
3.4.1 Node object management
To request and control the status of each object ,the node uses an input variable.
This input variable provides the mechanism to request a particular mode for a particular object
within a node. For example , each node object can be enable or disable .
This input variable includes one field to allow the Node Object to report status for all objects on a
node and one field to request the node.

•For the first one ,1 value is possible :
ID=0: node object
•For the second one , 4 values are possible
0:RQ_NORMAL :enable object and remove override.
1:RQ_DISABLED : disable object.
2:RQ_UPDATE_STATUS : just report status.
5:RQ_REPORT_MASK : report status bit mask.
This input variable is linked with :
SNVT_obj_request nviRequest
How to use :
ACTION nviRequest
object_id object_request
You want to know the
status of the node object
and set the nvoStatus with
current object 0 status.
0 2
Table 1: How to use node object management
To report the status of any object of the node , the node use an output variable.
4 fields are used for report the status of any object of the node :
•one reports the ID number
•A status is reported whenever a request is received for an object id that is not defined
in the node.
2 values are possible 0:disable
1:enable
•Reporting a status is required if an unsupported request code is received on the object
request input network variable.
2 values are possible 0:disable
1:enable
•reporting if the status is disable or enable
2 values are possible 0:disable
1:enable
These parameters are linked with the output variable
SNVT_obj_status nvoStatus

How to use :
nvoStatus is set only when a request status is asked .
ACTION NvoStatus
object_id invalid_id invalid_request disabled
The node object
is disable. 0000

3.5 Different configurations
This product supports 3 different configuration processes on the network:
-automatic installation : nothing has to be done at installation ; all the Actuator interfaces belong
to the same group have the same behavior regarding the sensors of the installation . This
automatic installation is implemented when the product leaves the production line ; as soon as
another configuration process is used , the automatic installation cannot be used anymore
unless a specific software is done on the device itself.
-PC configuration by the means of an appropriate software.
-intuitive installation : it is an installation configuration used in the SOMFY LonWorks products to
configure an installation of sensors and actuators on the network .
This configuration consists in creating groups of actuators.
All the actuators of the group have the same behaviour regarding the sensor controlling the group
.
The intuitive configuration requests for all the products one button and one LED ; those are ID
button and the ID LED .
The process of creating a group , at first installation or for a modification , is as follows :
•Press the ID button of a sensor during approx. 5’’ until its ID LED flashes ; wait until it stops
flashing and turns on continuously.
•Press the ID button of an actuator ( ex : BIU-LT interface , BUI-6AC interface , BIU-ILT
interface...) whose will be controlled by the sensor . Its ID LED and the ID LED of the sensor
will flash during few seconds , then its ID LED will turn on as the ID LED of the sensor will turn
on again ; this means that the actuator is no longer control by the sensor .
•If an actuator is controlled by the sensor , its ID LED is turn on .The actuator will be no longer
control by the sensor , give a pulse on its ID button . Its ID LED of the sensor will flash during
few seconds , then its ID LED will turn off ; this means that the actuator is no longer control
by the sensor .
•When the group has been set ( or modified ) , a pulse on the ID button of the sensor ends the
process . All the ID LED will turn off .
Nota : the process is anyhow now ended when no ID LED is activated during 3 minutes
after the process has been initiated .
