1 Introduction
This manual describes the functions of the devices named GW10786 - GW12786 - GW14786 “Movement
Detector with EIB twilight sensor” and how to use the ETS configuration software to change the settings
and configurations.

2 Application
The Movement Detector with EIB Twilight Sensor is a device that is able to send bus commands to other
devices on the Building Automation Konnex system according to the movements detected and the
brightness measured by the two incorporated sensors; this device is in fact able to send ON/OFF
commands, percentage values and scene activation commands to other KNX/EIB devices following
movement detection, whether conditioned or not by the level of light in the environment where the device is
installed.
The device is designed to also operate as a simple twilight sensor.
Three auxiliary command objects are also available which can be used independently to activate or
command other devices according to the conditions which may occur.
It is also possible to enable/disable the function that sends commands following movement detection,
including the commands sent by the auxiliary objects.
The device is fitted with two trimmers, one to set the brightness threshold and the other to modify the
recovery time (that will be analysed in detail further on) and a pilot light backlit by a green led which indicates
when a start and movement end telegram is sent.
This manual refers solely to the configuration using the ETS software. Please refer to the INSTALLATION
AND USER MANUAL supplied with the product for instructions on how to adjust and use the trimmers fitted
on the device.
2.1 Limits to the associations
The maximum number of logical associations that the device is able to memorize is 40; this means that the
maximum number of logical connections between communication objects and group addresses is 40.
The maximum number of group addresses that the device is able to memorize is 40; this means that it is
possible to associate the communication objects to a maximum of 40 group addresses.

3 “Times” Menu
The Times menu lists all the parameters needed to configure the 1 bit inputs on device; Diag. 3.1 shows the
complete Times menu screen shot with the relative configurable parameters.
Diag. 3.1
Before commencing a detailed analysis of the items on the configuration menu, let’s look briefly at how the
device actually functions so that the explanations of the items will then be easier to understand.
When the device detects movement (and after assessing the brightness level detected by the twilight sensor,
if this option is enabled) it sends a movement start telegram; from this moment in time, the value on the cycle
time counter and the recovery time counter both decrease.
The recovery time refers to the period that must lapse before the device can detect another movement within
its range of action, so that it can determine the end of the movement and sent the relative “movement end”
telegram (if this option is enabled); naturally, the recovery time counter is reset each time the device detects
movement.
During the cycle time, any movement detected will not trigger the sending of a bus telegram as this would
create an overflow on the bus line, whilst it is possible to set the repeated sending of periodical telegrams
associated to the “movement start” event at the end of each cycle time; therefore, if the cycle time lapses
and the recovery time has not expired, (that is, there is constant movement), the device will send another
“movement start” telegram if the cyclic command mode is enabled.
Diag. 3.2 shows a drawing that may simply these concepts.

Diag. 3.2
The first diagram illustrates the condition where, within the cycle time, a time equal to the recovery time
lapses without the device detecting any movement; the cycle time therefore commences when the first
movement is detected, indicated by a bold font arrow; at the same time a movement start telegram is also
sent (if the send telegram option is enabled); if no further movement is detected within the cycle time, the
recovery time counter is reset, indicated by a styled font arrow. In this case, the recovery time count is
completed because no movement has reset the counter value, and the end of the movement is confirmed by
the sending of a movement end telegram (if this option is enabled) and the end of the cycle time count. Once
the recovery time has expired, the detection of movement triggers the above illustrated cycle once again.
The second diagram replicates the complete operating condition, that is when more than one cycle time
lapses before the movement end command is given.
When the device detects the first movement, indicated by a bold text arrow, this triggers the start of the cycle
time counter and the sending of the movement start telegram (if this telegram is enabled); when no more
movement is detected, the recovery time counter starts which is not terminated when a new movement is
detected. This situation reoccurs again until the cycle time expire (second bold arrow); at this point, if the
cyclic command option is enabled, the movement start telegram is sent once again and the cycle time
counter is reset. This time however, a time equal to the recovery time lapses, within the cycle time, without
any movement detection and this condition triggers the movement end command (last bold arrow), and the
movement end telegram is sent, and the cycle time count ends. The detection of movement triggers the
above illustrated cycle once again.

The Twilight sensor menu lists all the parameters needed to configure the function of the twilight sensor on
the device; Diag. 4.1 shows the complete Twilight sensor menu screen shot with the relative configurable
parameters.
Diag. 4.1
4.1 Parameters
¾4.1.1 Twilight threshold regulation
Here you can configure the brightness value that determines the threshold for the twilight sensor.
The settings are:
•local trimmer
The regulation of the brightness value that constitutes the twilight sensor threshold is performed by a
local trimmer installed on the device. With this setting the Threshold value option is not visible..
•parameter
The regulation of the brightness value that constitutes the twilight sensor threshold is performed by an
ETS parameter and it cannot be modified by the local trimmer installed on the device. With this setting,
the Threshold value option is available.
¾4.1.2 Threshold value
Here you can set the brightness value that constitutes the threshold for the twilight sensor.
The values range from 10 lux to 500 lux; the threshold value in this case cannot be modified by the local
trimmer installed on the device.

¾4.1.3 Twilight threshold exceeding object
This section allows you to view and use the Twilight threshold exceeding communication object
though which the device notifies that the brightness value detected by the twilight sensor is higher/lower
(according to the value settings) than the threshold. Using this object, the device is able to reproduce the
typical functions of the twilight sensor which is not combined with the movement sensor.
The settings are:
•disabled
The Twilight threshold exceeding communication object is not visible and therefore the device will not
signal that the twilight sensor has been exceeded.
•direct (1 if brightness below the threshold)
When the twilight sensor detects a level of brightness below the set threshold, it sends a bus telegram
with a "1” logic value to the communication object; vice versa, when the brightness level detected
exceeds the threshold value, the device sends a telegram with a "0" logic value to the same
communication object.
•reverse ( 0 if brightness below the threshold)
When the twilight sensor detects a level of brightness below the set threshold, it sends a bus telegram
with a "0” logic value to the communication object; vice versa, when the brightness level detected
exceeds the threshold value, the device sends a telegram with a "1" logic value to the same
communication object.
4.2 Communication objects
The communication objects enabled by the Twilight sensor menu are those seen in Diag. 4.2.
Diag. 4.2
¾4.2.1 Twilight threshold exceeding
The device sends signals to the bus through this communication object which indicate that the twilight
sensor has detected a brightness level that exceeds the twilight sensor; these signals are sent as soon
as the detected brightness value exceeds the threshold, or falls below the threshold and the logic values
of the telegrams linked to these two events depends on the value set for the Twilight threshold
exceeding object option.
The enabled flags are C (communication), R (read by bus) and T (transmission) .
The standard format of the object is 1.001 DPT_Switch, so the size of the object is 1 bit and the
command it sends is twilight threshold value exceeding.

5 “Movement sensor” menu
The Movement sensor menu lists all the parameters needed to configure the functions of the IR twilight
sensor installed on the device; Diag. 5.1 shows the complete Movement sensor menu screen shot with the
relative configurable parameters.
Diag. 5.1
5.1 Parameters
¾5.1.1 Movement start object sending
This enables the sending of periodic telegrams linked to the “movement start” event and also
subordinate the sending of this telegram according to the brightness value detected by the twilight
sensor;
The settings in the first menu window are:
•cyclic
the telegram linked to the “movement start” event is sent periodically, at intervals equal to the set cycle
time; this means that, each time the cycle time expires, the device will send a "movement start"
telegram.
•not cyclical
The telegram linked to the “movement start” event is not sent periodically; this means that, each time the
cycle time expires, the device will not send a "movement start" telegram as it is only sent when the first
movement is detected.
The settings in the second menu window are:
•depending on twilight sensor
The device detects the “movement start" event and sends the associated telegram when movement is
detected by the IR movement sensor; at the same time the brightness value measured by the twilight
sensor is below the threshold, which creates conditioned movement detection.
