The KNX-GPS weather station measures the temperature, wind speed and luminosity. It detects precipitations and receives the
time and location data through the GPS signal. In addition, it calculates the exact position of the sun (azimuth and elevation)
using the site coordinates and time.
All of the weather data is sent to the bus at regular intervals. This data can be received and operated by other KNX products or a
supervision system that it able to define the thresholds and establish logical combinations from among several quantities to
ultimately control the outputs depending on the threshold values.
The weather station enables direct control of the switch outputs thanks to the pre-defined alarm levels: rain and frost alarm, and 3
wind alarm levels. It can also ensure the shading or heat recovery functions by tracking the position of shutters or the tilt of slats
for blinds.
The sensors, data operation electronics and bus coupler electronics are stored in the compact housing of the KNX-GPS station.
■Luminosity and sun position
The light intensity is measured using a luminosity sensor. At the same time, the KNX-GPS weather station calculates the position
of the sun (azimuth and elevation) using the time and location.
■Wind speed measurement
The wind speed electronic record provides quiet and reliable operation, even during hail, snow and minus temperatures.
Turbulence and upslope winds close to the weather station are also recorded. This information is transmitted periodically and can
be used as a wind alarm control.
■Precipitation detection
The surface of the sensor is heated so that only droplets and flakes are identified as precipitation, thereby disqualifying fog or
thaw. When the rain or snow stops, the sensor dries quickly and indicates the end of precipitation. This information is transmitted
periodically and can be used as a rain alarm control.
■Temperature recordings
The outdoor temperature is measured using a sensor. This information is transmitted periodically and can primarily be used as a
display or, for example, as a frost alarm control.
■Operation associated with domovea
The quantities measured (lux °C m/s) can be used by domovea to configure the levels and control the ON/OFF outputs when the
threshold is exceeded.
■Date and time - GPS function
The weather station receives the date and time via its built-in GPS receiver. This allows it to manage the switch to daylight saving
time between winter and summer.
■Rain, wind and frost alarms
This function issues an alarm according to the weather data gathered up to a predefined threshold.
There are 3 types of alarms:
- Rain alarm
-Frostalarm
- Wind alarm defined by 3 thresholds (Alarm 1 - 4 m/s, Alarm 2 - 8 m/s, Alarm 3 - 12 m/s)
■Shading control
This function manages up to 4 facades with several levels of shading depending on the angle of slat blinds or shutter closure.
2.2 Function modules of the application

TXE530 8 6LE001714A
■Heat protection and heat recovery
This function is involved in indoor temperature management, depending on the level of sunlight and the season. In summer, the
heat protection function positions the shutters or blinds to prevent the part from becoming too warm. In winter, the heat recovery
function opens the shutters or blinds to heat up the part using sunlight. For facade 1 only, the purpose of the weather station is to
receive the ambient temperature of facade 1 (using a master part) to more accurately manage heat protection and recovery.

3.1.1 General
3.1.1.1 Date and time
The GPS module built into the device is able to send the date and time to the bus. When the weather station is set without
restrictions, data is sent every 12 hours (fixed value) and during the time changes between summer and winter.
A single time must be managed for the different sub-systems. This time may come from different sources::
- domovea if connected to the internet
- weather station
-clock
If there are several time sources on the system, the priority is as follows:
- internet via the service module
-GPS
- local time source (clock ...)
Date and time for Master
In the first instance, the current date and time can be set via the ETS. The weather station works with this data until a valid GPS
signal is received for the first time.
3. Programming by ETS
3.1 Parameters
Parameter Description Value
Date and time The device uses the time data from another device on the bus. Slave*
The device receives the time data through GPS and sends it to the
KNX bus every 12 hours.

TXE530 10 6LE001714A
Date and time for Slave
In slave mode, the weather station synchronizes itself to the date and time of the master system. However, it always operates
with its own date and time when calculating the azimuth and elevation.
When the weather station does not receive date and time information over 2 successive tries (fixed value), it sends a request via
the object (Date and time request). If there is no response, the weather station switches automatically to master mode. When the
master device re-sends the date and time, the weather station returns to slave mode.
Date and time in Autonomous mode
The weather station operates with its own date and time to calculate the azimuth and elevation. No item is sent to or read on the
KNX bus.

3.1.2.4 Rain alarm
The rain alarm mainly controls the opening and closing of canopies or skylights. It can also be used as a display on touch
screens.
The rain alarm operates as follows:
- The rain alarm is activated (bit = 1) when rain is detected. It will immediately be transmitted and every 10 minutes
thereafter.
- The rain alarm is deactivated (bit = 0) after a period of 5 minutes after rain has stopped. It will immediately be transmitted
and every 10 minutes thereafter.
3.1.3 Shading
The aim of the shading function is to provide further comfort for people in the room by preventing glare from the sun. To simplify
the use and configuration of the weather station, we recommend working with facades that are fitted only with shutters or only
with blinds.
The shading control options (blind or louver position and slat tilt positions) are associated with facades.
Facade controls

Communication objects: 7 - Rain alarm - Output (1 Bit - 1.005 DPT_Alarm)
The majority of buildings have 4 facades. Creating a separate command for the sun
protection of each facade is recommended.
For U shaped buildings, only 4 facades must be controlled separately, insofar as several
are facing the same direction.
To manage shading on a facade with both blinds and shutters, two facades must be
registered: one for blinds and one for shutters. Here, facade 2 is for shutters and facade 4
is for blinds.

TXE530 19 6LE001714A
Shading concept for rolling shutters and slat blinds:
With shading tracking, the sun protection is not fully lowered, thus allowing the sun to penetrate the room. In this way, users at the
bottom of the window can see out and plants on the windowsill will receive sunshine.
Note: Shading tracking can only be used when the sun protection is lowered from top to bottom (such as shutters, textile sun
protection or blinds with horizontal slats). This function is not usable for a sun protection that is pulled from one side to the other
or pulled in front of a window from both sides.
Shading with roller shutters
Shading is automatically controlled if the shading conditions on the relevant facade are fulfilled: luminosity threshold > 40 klux
and sun on the facade. The shading thus moves in line with the path of the sun. It starts with a minimum shutter closing value of
20 % and a maximum configurable closure between 20 and 80 %. Full automatic closure can only be obtained if the heat
protection function is activated.
Example of 80% maximum closure (default value):
Example Shutter position Sun position - Angle between
20% 46° ... 90°
40% 31° ... 45°
60% 16° ... 30°

Example with maximum closure set at 40%:
Sun protection operation for shutters:
If the luminosity level is sufficient (more than 40 Klux for more than one minute) and the sun is shining on the facade:
- The shutter is positioned in line with the path of the sun between 20 % closure and the maximum shading position defined
by the configuration (20 to 80 %).
If the luminosity level is insufficient (less than 32 Klux for more than 15 minutes) or the sun is not shining on the facade:
- The shutter is positioned at a fixed value of 0 %.
