These instructions apply to animeo Master Control W2/W8 from version B onwards!
Before starting up it is necessary to follow the safety instructions in these instruction.
SOMFY cannot be held liable for defects and damages when these have been caused as a result
of not following instructions (wrong installation, incorrect service etc.). Establishing, testing and
starting up of the equipment is permitted only by a qualified person (in accordance with VDE
0100). Switch on all connections without voltage. Take precautions against unintentional turning on.
The installation of the Somfy products may occur only at easily accessible places. If maintenance and repair
become hindered by accessibility substantially (e.g. stuck or extensively stuck flooring, installation behind
lamps or behind façades), any originating supplementary costs therein cannot be charged to the seller.

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 (#1860187)
to connect from up to two wind speed sensors on the Outside Sensor Box (#9001606) or one
Compact Sensor (#9015047).
•animeo KNX Master Control W8 (#1860193)
to connect from up to eight wind speed sensors, two on the Outside Sensor Box (#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 (#1860187) or
•The controller module animeo KNX Master Control W8 (#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.

4.1. Starting up the Operating software
Start the animeo KNX Master Control Operating software.
Enter the IP address. The IP address in the delivery state is “192.168.0.2” which you can change at any
time in the software. The last assigned address is always saved and indicated.
You can change the IP address at any time in the menu under “settings” and “TCP/IP settings”.
Click on “connect” to start the communication with animeo KNX Master Control and to carry out the
parameter settings online. Click on “close” to carry out the parameter settings off-line.
4.2. Input serial number in the Operating
software

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
Ethernet connection (see picture).
The serial number (serial key) must be entered only once. Since this is saved in the animeo KNX
Master Control Operating software, with a renewed connection between software and hardware, this
standard 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.

the button becomes grey again.
4.3.5. Communication
If animeo KNX Operating Software is connected with animeo KNX Master Control, the “online” diode
shines pale green. If the software is offline, the diode becomes dark green.
In the data transfer between the PC and animeo KNX Master Control, the “PC-Comm” diode blinks

4.4.1. File
The menu point “File” contains all Windows applications functions with regard to printing, file man-
agement and exiting. The individual sub functions of this menu point are described in the following.
4.4.1.1. Save project
With this sub function the project is saved as a “Projectname.caw”. Thus a backup of a project (*.p) can
occur.
4.4.1.2. Open project
Here, project files “Projectname.caw” can be opened.
4.4.1.3. Print project
This command prints out all configuration and setting datas of your project. Here, the project can be
documented.
4.4.1.4. Exit
Here, the application is closed. When exiting the program asks, provided that updates were carried out,
whether these should be saved; this prevents data getting lost.

4.4.2. Setting
The menu point “Setting” contains settings with regard to the TCP/IP setting, languages, time format,
units, time adjust, password, position, zones and sensor adjustment. The individual sub functions of this
menu point are described in the following.
4.4.2.1. TCP/IP setting
With this sub function communication is made between the software (KNX Operating Software) and the
hardware (KNX Master Control W2 or KNX Master Control W8). Select the IP address of the desired
KNX Master Control. In the delivery state this is 192.168.0.2.
4.4.2.2. Languages
Here the language can be selected for the entire software. The language can also be selected later.
4.4.2.3. Time format
Here you can set the desired time format 12 or 24.
4.4.2.4. Units
Select the units which should be displayed. The selected unit is marked by a tick.
The units are divided into the following categories:
1. Temperature
Celsius and Fahrenheit.
2. Wind
m/s, km/h and mph.
4.4.2.5. Time setting
Define the following time parameters:
1. “Synchronise with PC ”, if the time, the date and time zone should be taken over
from the internal clock of the PC.
2. Manual setting of the time and the date
3. Manual selection of time zone, e.g. Germany is GMT+01:00h
4. “OK” for taking over of the setting;
”Cancel” without taking over the setting.

4.4.2.6. Password
With this sub function, up to 4 passwords are defined which are required for entering in the different
menu points. These passwords ensure that updates are not carried out in the settings by mistake or by
unauthorised persons.
In the delivery state there is the first password “PASSWD” (see picture below) which is required for
changing or entering further passwords.
Change or define new passwords.
4.4.2.7. Position
Enter the position of the building (degree of longitude and degree of latitude) either as a number or in
degrees.
