Connection diagram
Attention!
The motor cable must be directly connected to the control device ON-
YX.CONNECTOR. Clamping points/junctions in the motor cable are unac-
ceptable.
Attention!
When actuating the 230 V lighting, the maximum output power of 450 VA
may not be exceeded. This must especially be observed with lightings with
electrical ballasts, which have a high inrush current.
In addition, a cut-off relay must be used with higher electric capacities.
Connection of the mains voltage (230 V AC / 50 Hz) to the ONYX.CONNECTOR
The ONYX.CONNECTOR is connected to the mains via the mounted Hirschmann con-
nector STAS 3. If the connection cable made available by the client is not provided with a
Hirschmann cable socket STAK 3 (Fig. 4), it must be mounted later. Please observe the
terminal assignment as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.
Connecting the motor / lighting to the ONYX.CONNECTOR
The motor / lighting is directly plugged to the ONYX.CONNECTOR via the Hirschmann
connector-in connection. If the motor / lighting is not provided with a STAS 3 connector
(Fig. 3), it is necessary to provide the connection cable subsequently with it. Please ob-
serve the terminal assignment as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.
The unintentional drawing-out of the connection cables during opera-
tion can cause life-endangering situations due to electric shock or
short circuit.

Direction assignment of the outputs when connecting a Venetian blind, roller shut-
ter, awning motor
After having connected the drive, please check the direction assignment of the outputs.
When operating the sun protection unit via ONYX®-app into the UP-direction, the motor
must move into the retracting direction. When operating the sun protection unit via ONYX®-
app into the DOWN-direction, the motor must move into the extending direction. If this is
not the case, please change the settings for the rotational direction of the motor via your
ONYX®-app, as described in the chapter “Settings”.

Configuration
Before configuring the ONYX.CONNECTOR, download HELLA’s free app
ONYX®from the App store / Google Play to your smart phone.
Before you can use ONYX.CONNECTOR in combination with ON-
YX.CENTER or ONYX.CLICK, ONYX.CONNECTOR must be added in the
app ONYX®. You will find all information regarding the configuration in the
instructions for ONYX.CENTER / ONYX.CLICK directly in the app ONYX®or
in the download area on our homepage https://www.hella.info.
Precondition:
ONYX.CONNECTOR is installed (see chapter “Wiring diagram”). The me-
chanical end positions of the drives must be adjusted.
Operating guidelines
Groups
Groups with their different sun protection units can be configured freely in the
ONYX®-app. All units in one group can be controlled together.
Favourite position (heart symbol)
In the ONYX®-app six freely selectable positions per sun protection unit can
be saved, which you simply can use again at a later time.
Automatic Operation
In the ONYX®-app you can set up as many time functions as you like, which,
at the desired times, make your sun protection units move to the adjusted
positions. ONYX®is also provided with an astro function, which, at sunrise or
sunset, moves your sun protection unit automatically to a defined position.
With the help of the sun sensor a particular position can be defined, if the
threshold value of the sun is below or exceeds the preset value.

Settings
Device type
The different device types can be selected in the ONYX®-app under “ad-
vanced settings”.
It is necessary to define the type of device. By selecting the appropriate
category, it is assigned to this type. Device types are outdoor blind, roller
shutter, awning, facade blind and light. For device types, you do not want to
be displayed in the app, i.e. central pushbutton without a connected drive,
the drive type “Hidden” is available. By default the device type “Roller shut-
ter” is set.
Outdoor blind parameters
You find the outdoor blind parameters under “advanced settings” in the ON-
YX®-app.
Under “Tilting time” it is possible to transmit the time the outdoor blind re-
quires for a complete tilting to the ONYX®control. This must especially be
observed, if a drive with a slow slat tilting is mounted.
Preset tilting times:
Outdoor blind 90°: 1.25 s
Outdoor blind
180°:
2.5 s
Motor parameters
You find the adjustment possibilities for the motors under “advanced set-
tings” in the ONYX®-app.
If your sun protection unit moves contrary to the direction of your control
command, you can activate the reversal of the direction of rotation with the
icon “Reverse direction of rotation”.
In addition, the “automatic running time” can be activated/deactivated under
“motor parameters”. The automatic running time should be deactivated only,
if ONYX.CONNECTOR is not directly connected to a drive, i.e. to a cut-off
relay. The running time can be adjusted manually, when the automatic run-
ning time is deactivated. As a standard the automatic running time is activat-
ed.

Settings
Wind resistance class
You find the wind resistance classes in the ONYX®-app under “advanced
settings”. These preset wind resistance classes are only relevant, if the op-
tional weather sensor ONYX.WEATHER is used. Please note, that the real
values set depend on the installation situation on-site; these values are
available in the documentation of the sun protection device and must be
strictly observed!
Preset wind resistance classes:
Roller shutter Class 4 (13.8 m/s)
Awning Class 2 (10.7 m/s)
Facade blinds Class 4 (13.8 m/s)
Outdoor blind Class 4 (13.8 m/s)
Output selection
This adjusting possibility is only available for the device type “light”.
Under “output selection” you can select which connection at the STAK 3
output is to be used for the actuation of the lighting. It is possible to select
between “Channel A” (connection 1 and 2) and “Channel B” (connection 1
and 3). As a standard “Channel A” is set.
A detailed description of all settings of the ONYX®-app are available in the
download area of our website https://www.hella.info.

Ideal use of the radio signal
In case of bad reception, the position of the ONYX.CONNECTOR must be
changed.
Radio systems that send on the same frequency may cause interference
with reception.
It must be considered that the range of the radio signal is limited by statutory
regulations and structural measures.
