Field of application of the WS1000 Color control unit
The WS1000 Color was developed so that the different technical equipment
installed in conservatories and buildings could be centrally controlled. The
control unit offers the highest measure of flexibility with regard to connections,
allowing settings to be optimally and individually adjusted to the circumstances
on site. Please use this operational guide to adjust the automatic functions to
your requirements and enable comfortable manual operation.

minutes without a new alarm signal, normal automatic operation will be
resumed.
•Smoke detector: When the alarm triggers, shades retract (escape routes),
windows open, ventilators open/switch on (getting rid of smoke) and
heatings and air conditioners switch off. No manual operation is possible.
An acoustic warning signal will sound at the control system.

Operation and use of the
automatic functions

14
Operation
Weather data display (starting image of the control)
As a starting image, the control system shows the current weather data:
Sun data
Intensity: Light intensity (brightness) in Lux (lx) or Kilolux (klx)
Direction: Direction (azimuth) in degrees
Height: Elevation over the horizon in degrees
Wind
The wind speed will be shown in metres per second (m/s) and the windsock
changes:
Calm: up to 1.9 m/s
Slight wind: 2.0 to 9.9 m/s
Strong wind: 10.0 m/s and up
A caution flag appears besides the wind symbol if wind alarm has been
triggered for a drive.
Outdoor temperature
Outdoor temperature at the weather station in degrees Celsius (°C)
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
Indoor sensor for wheather data display, p. 91

15
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.
At night (twilight) the display will be darker;
instead of the sun, the moon and stars will
appear.

16
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:
DCF77 radio clock reception (from weather station): Broadcasting tower
GPS reception (from weather station): Satellite
Reception of time via KNX bus: Clock
In order that shades can be controlled according to the direction and height of the
sun, the building’s location must be specified. Only in this way will the sun’s
position be calculated correctly.

Enter location, p. 97
The touch display
Manual control, as well as setting the defaults for the automatic functions and the
connected equipment, is via the WS1000 Color’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 > WS1000 Settings > Settings > Calibrate touch
Calibrate touch, p. 97
Operating the display with long fingernails will not damage the screen or the
touch function. A stylus is enclosed with the control system. It can be stored in
the tray beneath the covering lid. 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.

17
Manually operate drives and devices
Manual operation of the drives and devices is carried out in the manual menu,
which you can reach via the Manual button:
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
Define channel order, p. 94

18
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) and various control
options (up/down arrow keys or on/off buttons).
For shades and windows, 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). 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.
If a drive group is momentarily blocked for manual operation by a rain or wind
alarm, the arrow keys will be greyed out and may not be used. The message
“Rain alarm” and/or “Wind alarm” is shown.
Whether a drive or device is in automatic mode or
manually operated can be recognised from the white marking on the buttons 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.
With this button you can carry out the automatic
reset manually and place all equipment into automatic mode.

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.

Assign internal buttons (group buttons), p. 84
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.
