Gewiss Chorus rf User manual

The RF Command and Control system consists of wireless communications devices that integrate with the conventional electrical system, allowing the

expansion of functionality without recourse to working in walls.

The transmission frequency of the wireless devices is 868 MHz.

Configuring the devices

Configuration and operation of the system devices is easily carried out with just a few operations:

- The association between the RF transmitters, (command devices, sensors, input modules, timed thermostats) with the RF receivers (output modules/actuators);

- Function configuration of the single device.

Below is an example of the combination between a push-button panel (GW 14 801) and an actuator for general 3A loads (GW 14 821).

The receiver/actuator device is set in the “self-learning” mode by turning the rotary selector to the corresponding position (fig.1). The association is made by

pressing the key of the push-button panel to be included (fig.2).

The system becomes operational after turning the actuator's rotary selector on the desired function (fig.3) according to system needs (e.g. timer, commutation

and/or impulse).

Press the key on the push-button panel

to create the association

Select the function by turning the selector

to the required operating mode.

Each single actuator/receiver can be associated with up to 16 different input channels (e.g. 2 channels of the push-button panel GW 14 803 + 1 channel of a

movement detector GW 14 811 and so on to a maximum of 16).

Wireless 2-channel input module

The 2-channel input module allows you to send 2 on/off or relay actuator adjustment commands of the RF Command and Control system, to control the

electrical load (lights, motors, roller shutters, doors, gates, awnings, etc.).

The mains-powered device reads the input signals coming from the potential free contacts of traditional equipment (push-buttons, switches, sensors, timers,

etc.) and sends commands using the built-in wireless transmitter.

The input signals are connected by two pairs of wires.

With the rotary selector the following function modes can be set:

- combined inputs mode (logic identical to push-button panel or RF remote control, with the two channels connected to the same RX receiver)

- status mode (periodical sending of input status)

- inversion mode (inversion of relay status)

- ALWAYS ON mode (sending of ON command only)

- ALWAYS OFF mode (sending of OFF command only)

Both channels follow the same operating logic in the STATE, INVERSION, ALWAYS ON and ALWAYS OFF operating mode (both channels operate in the same

mode) and can be associated to two different actuators.

Wall-mounting wireless timed thermostat

The timed thermostat allows to automatically control, on a weekly basis, the temperature and timing inside the installation environment in combination with

the heating and air conditioning systems.

- Powered with 3 alkaline batteries (1.5V, type AAA)

- Programming on a weekly basis (a programme with hourly profiles independently configurable for each day of the week)

- Setting of hourly profile on 24-hour basis, with 3 different temperature levels (T1, T2, T3) and profile display

- Programming of times with a resolution of 15 minutes without a limit in the number of daily changes

- Residual current circuit breaker for adjustment can be set and differentiated for HEATING and AIR-CONDITIONING

- PARTY and HOLIDAY functions for programming special functioning speeds of different duration periods

- Functioning modes that can be set: AUTOMATIC / MANUAL / OFF

- Possibility to select the system thermal gradient self-learning function. This function optimises the anticipation of heating (up to 2 hours), in order to

guarantee the set temperature right from the programme start

- The device is installed on walls (with wall plugs or double-sided adhesive tape) or on the surface of 3-module flush-mounting boxes.

- The wireless timed thermostat must be combined with the actuator modules for general commands (GW 10 821 - GW 12 821 - GW 14 821 - GW 10 822 - GW 12

822 - GW 14 822).

Wireless IR movement detector with twilight sensor

The detector is battery powered and equipped with a presence sensor and a light-sensitive sensor whose threshold can be adjusted by a potentiometer.

The device allows the electrical loads to be activated and deactivated by the radio transmission of messages to the output modules present in the RF Command

and Control system.

The device has three freely configurable operating modes:

1) Movement sensor;

2) Movement and light sensitive sensor;

3) Light sensitive sensor.

This means that it can send differentiated messages to three groups of actuators; for example, the detector can be used at the same time as a movement sensor

to manage some RX output modules, and as a light sensitive and movement sensor to manage the others.

The device can be wall-mounted (fixed with plugs) or installed on a 3-module flush-mounting box.

Wireless output modules for general loads, 1-channel 3A and 16A - 250V

When combined with wireless transmitter devices (push-button panel, remote control, IR movement detector, 2-channel input module, timed thermostat) of

the RF Command and Control system, the output module receives commands and activates the electrical load by means of the relay output.

The implementations (selected with the rotary selector) are of the following types:

- Bistable (e.g. for normal light management);

- Timed (e.g. for stair light);

- Monostable (e.g. for doorbell).

The relay can also be activated by the local key or by an input (two-wire) made available for reading of contact without potential.

Wireless output modules for roller shutters, 1-channel 8A - 250V

When combined with transmitter devices (push-button panel, remote control, 2-channel interface module) of the RF Command and Control system, the output

module receives commands and activates the relay for the activation of the roller shutters, awnings and similar.

The output module provides for three operating states:

- UP position (corresponding to lifting in the case of roller shutters, etc.);

- DOWN position (corresponding to lowering in the case of roller shutters, etc.);

- STOP position (no output fed).

There is an operation time limit during UP and DOWN status (settable by means of the rotary selector), after which the device always goes to STOP status with

neither output powered.

Via the wired input, it is possible to connect potential-free contacts with 2 conventional NO push-buttons, or a double push-button with interlock.

The motor command module is equipped with a three-colour (yellow/red/green) multipurpose LED to indicate the working mode, and a pair of front button keys

to command the output relays locally.

Wireless signal repeater

The wireless repeater is use to resolve installation problems in which direct radio connections are not possible between the command device and an activation

device, due to excessive distance or obstacles (reinforced concrete structures, metal sheeting, etc.) that limit the transmission of the radio signal.

In this case the distance should be divided into shorted parts, or following a different course, placing a RF signal repeater capable of receiving the messages sent

by the command device and send them on to the activation device. The device can manage up to 16 different radio connections (paths with several repeaters

can be executed for covering long distances).

The signal repeater acts as a 1-channel actuator, as it contains a 16A relay. The relay inside the signal repeater can be controlled by up to 16 wireless input

command devices.
