1. Description of functions
1.1. Functions
animeo KNX Master Control is a sun protection controller which can control up to 16 different zones in a
building via the KNX bus wire. Depending on weather conditions (sun, wind and wind direction, rain,
temperature, …) and depending on time programs, animeo KNX Master Control sends information via
the KNX bus wire to the individual sun protection control devices (e.g. animeo KNX Motor Controller) to
provide optimum light and room climate conditions in the building and to protect the sun protection
against damages. The sun protection controller can be connected to external systems (e.g. fire warning
equipment), so that safety is guaranteed in the building. Thanks to special controlling of the sun protec-
tion equipment, the animeo KNX Master Control saves energy costs.
The parameter setting is realised with a user-friendly PC surface (animeo KNX Operating Software) and
the objects are linked with the ETS Software.
animeo KNX Master Control is available in two versions:
•animeo KNX Master Control W2 (ref.1860187)
to connect from up to two wind speed sensors on the Outside Sensor Box (ref.9001606) or one
Compact Sensor (ref.9015047).
•animeo KNX Master Control W8 (ref.1860193)
to connect from up to eight wind speed sensors, two on the Outside Sensor Box (ref.9001606) and
six additional wind speed sensors (9140180) to the direct connection in animeo KNX Master Control
W8.
1.2. Product contents
The central control animeo KNX Master Control contains:
•The controller module animeo KNX Master Control W2 (ref.1860187) or
•The controller module animeo KNX Master Control W8 (ref.1860193)
•A CD “animeo KNX Master Control W2/W8” with the following files and programs:
oanimeo KNX Operating software for setting parameters
ooperating and setting instructions (PDF format)
oconnection diagrams (PDF format)
oKNX product data base and symbols file
•A cross-over cable for direct communication between PC and animeo KNX Master Control.

1.4. Checking the connections
Before you start with setting the parameters, check first whether the controller is properly connected.
The LEDs in animeo KNX Master Control and in the Outside Sensor Box indicate whether the connec-
tion is correct.
Wait a few seconds until the system has started and compare the LEDs on the devices to the normal
LED state in the table. If they do not match, the connection must be checked.

With the first connection of the animeo KNX Operating Software with the animeo KNX Master Control,
you are asked to enter the serial number (Serial Key) of the device. You will find this beside the Ether-
net connection (see picture).
The serial number (serial key) must be entered only once. Since this is saved in the animeo KNX Mas-
ter Control Operating software, with a renewed connection between software and hardware, this stand-
ard number must not be entered again.
Should the animeo KNX Operating Software not be connected with the animeo KNX Master Control, the
serial number can be also entered by hand in the software and saved.
