CONFIGURATION
The Nighter & Whice control is an SCS control where the traditional
pushbuttons are replaced by capacitive sensors. Touching the area of a
sensor with a finger is the same as pressing a pushbutton. The device can
thus perform some functions typical of an SCS control by simply touching its
surface.
It is available in flush-mounted versions with 3 and 4 modules, with 6 and 8
keys respectively.
Each zone corresponding to a key is marked in the centre by a light blue
LED.
When the user’s finger comes close the intensity increases appreciably and
remains intense until the finger is removed. This effect gives the user the
feeling that he has activated the command.
Use the configurator to change the levels of intensity.

item HC/HS4657M3 and item HC/HS4657M4
The Nighter & Whice control can work in four different ways:
self-learning, scenarios, swing, CEN.
- The self-learning mode (cyclical or non-cyclical) lets you associate most
of the typical commands of the automation, sound and video door entry
systems, as well as the auxiliary commands, to each key.
- The scenario mode lets you call, program and cancel 6 or 8 scenarios of a
scenario module.
- The switch mode lets you drive 3 or 4 consecutive light points or rolling
shutters (or rooms or groups).
- The CEN mode lets you send commands to the scenario programmer
(MH200).
The Nighter & Whice SCS control has the following features:
1) removable terminal for connection to the BUS
2) housing for four configurators: A, PL, M, INT

The functions which can be obtained are listed below.
The Nighter & Whice can be configured in two different ways:
- Physical configuration: putting the physical configurators into their
housings.
- Virtual configuration: the control can be configured remotely, whenever
you do not have the physical configurators.
(For details, refer to the Virtual Configuration guide).
Apart from modality, the control always needs an univocal A/PL address
in the system.

This mode of operation lets you associate a single command to any device key. Each command can be created,
cancelled or modified.
Follow the following procedure to associate a different command to any of
the keys:
1) keep the pushbutton on the back pressed for 3 seconds;
the LEDs light up. Release the pushbutton, the LEDs light up in rotation;
2) touch the key that you want to program within 20 seconds: the LED starts
to flash, indicating that the programming mode has been activated;
3) set the command which you want to associate with the key, acting on the
command or the corresponding actuator. The LEDs start to turn again;
4) at this point you can repeat points 2 and 3 for all the keys, also for a key
for which the association has been made if you want to change it;
5) press the pushbutton quickly or wait 20 seconds to quit the programming.
1) keep the pushbutton on the back pressed for 8 seconds; first the LEDs
light up then they return to the minimum level set. Release the key
within 4 seconds, the LEDs shine simultaneously;
2) press the key that you want to cancel within 20 seconds: the cancelled
key will no longer activate a command until it has been reprogrammed;
3) the corresponding LED flashes 4 seconds, alternately with the others.
After this you can repeat point 2 to cancel other programmings;;
4) press the pushbutton quickly or wait 20 seconds to quit the programming.
NOTE: To cancel the programming of all the keys at the same time, keep
the pushbutton on the back pressed for 12 seconds; first the LEDs light up,
then they return to the minimum level set and then they switch ON again.
Release the key, the LEDs flash in sequence for about 4 seconds, confirming
that all the programming has been cancelled.
Use only the screwdriver (T2738A) supplied.

This mode is a variation of the self-learning mode (M=0) in which the keys never work cyclically. Thus if, for example,
the ON of an actuator or dimmer has been learnt, the pair of keys configure automatically to switch ON or increase
the intensity level for the upper key and switch OFF or decrease the intensity level for the lower key. If instead a
single function (e.g. calling a scenario) has been learnt, the other key of the pair remains without a function or keeps
the function it had previously.

This mode of operation is only used if the system has a scenario module item F420.
The user can create, cancel or modify the scenarios in the scenario module and can use the keys to call them.
The procedure can save up to 16 scenarios using two 8-key devices, or three 6-key devices.
The following table shows the correspondence between the scenario number saved in the scenario module and the control key in the possible configurations:

1) enable the programming of Module item F420 so that the programming
state LED is green (press the lock/unlock key on the Scenario module for
at least 0.5 seconds);
2) keep the pushbutton on the back of the Nighter and Whice control
pressed for 3 seconds; the LEDs light up. Release the pushbutton, the LEDs
light up in rotation;
3) press the key corresponding to the scenario to be programmed. The LED
starts to flash (when it receives the updating of the scenario module)
indicating that the programming mode has been activated;
4) set the scenario, by means of the commands and/or the corresponding
actuators;
5) press the key to quit the programming: the LEDs start to flash in rotation
again. At this point you can repeat points 2, 3 and 4 for all the scenarios,
also for a key for which the association has been made if you want to
change it;

This mode allows rapid installation without need for learning or scenario modules, driving 4 or 3 consecutive light points or rolling shutters. The A PL address
is the light point or rolling shutter commanded by the first pair of keys, the next pairs command the next light points or rolling shutters. If the Amb or
Gr configurator is inserted in A, in the same mode the 4 or 3 pairs of keys command consecutive rooms or groups starting from the one indicated by the
configurator in PL.

This mode of operation is only used if the system has a scenario programmer (MH200).
A scenario configured in the MH200 scenario programmer is associated with the activation keys of the Nighter and Whice control when programming the
scenario with the TiMH200 software.

The INT configurator can be used to select between different LED lighting intensities, depending on the installation needs.
You can set the LED intensity to fade when it is being switched OFF or switch it OFF suddenly
- INT=none at rest the LED are lit up at 30%, if a key is pressed the corresponding LED lights up at 75%.
- INT=1 at rest the LED are lit up at 45%, if a key is pressed the corresponding LED lights up at the maximum level (about 90%).
- INT=OFF at rest the LED are OFF, if a key is pressed the corresponding LED lights up at 45%.
- INT=2,3,4 same brightness as before but without fading on switching OFF
When the device has been installed wait two minutes for it to finish the auto-calibration. During this time commands can be sent automatically to the
system.
