Before beginning any operation, the safety instructions in these instructions must be taken into
account.
SOMFY declines all responsibility for damage and defects caused by non-compliance with the instruc-
tions (incorrect installation, maintenance, repairs, etc.). The system may only be installed, checked and
commissioned by an expert (in accordance with VDE 0100)! Switch off the voltage to all of the lines which
are to be installed. Take all appropriate measures to avoid the system being switched on accidentally.
Somfy products must always be installed in easily accessible locations. If access is limited for mainte-
nance and repair work (e.g. glued or extensively glued floors, installation behind lamps or panels), any
additional costs incurred as a result shall not be borne by the seller.
Subject to technical modifications.
The Motor Controller 6 AC KNX DRM is suitable for controlling up to six individually configurable motors
for Venetian blinds, roller shutters, awnings and windows.
Functions and advantages
•The simple installation saves time, for example by means of spring terminals.
•The direction of rotation of the motors can be tested without the ETS software.
•The parameters are easily set with the user-friendly ETS software.
•The smart change between manual and automatic mode ensures outstanding user-friendliness and
saves energy.
•The position of the motors is transmitted during movement and when the upper or lower end limits are
reached.
•For each individual motor output, two different security positions can be freely determined.
•The security position for mains voltage return can be freely defined with feedback provided by the ob-
ject.
•Automatic cascading of the outputs in the event of mains voltage return and the bus security functions
minimise power spikes.
Full commissioning is possible if the KNX motor controller is connected to the KNX bus and is sup-
plied by power by the latter.

4.1 Reset/Prog button function
4.1.1 Resetting to factory settings on the motor controller
Switch the power supply of the motor controller off. Press and hold the Reset/Prog button. Switch the power
on again and keep the Reset/Prog button depressed for 10 seconds until 2 LEDs flash 3 times.
The motor controller is now reset to the factory settings.
4.1.2 Resetting to factory settings via ETS
The reset is indicated after approx. 15 seconds by the LEDs on the device lighting up briefly.
4.1.3 Motor controller status check
Press the Reset/Prog button briefly and the SCR, US and EU LEDs light up:
If the SCR, US and EU LEDs flash 3 times for 1 second, the motor controller has not yet been programmed
via KNX.
If the SCR, US and EU LEDs only flash once for 3 seconds, the motor controller has been programmed via
KNX.
!Rapid flashing of the KNX LED means that there is no voltage at the KNX bus.

For Venetian blinds:
If a telegram is received by one of these communi-
cation objects when a Venetian blind is moving, the
movement is stopped regardless of whether "0" or
"1" is received. If the Venetian blind is not moving,
a turn is performed. Furthermore, if a telegram with
the value "1" is received, the slats close and if a tel-
egram with the value "0" is received, they move up-
wards. The turn duration is determined in the pa-
rameter settings.
For vertical awnings, roller shutters, awnings
and windows:
If a telegram is received by one of these communi-
cation objects when one of the end devices is mov-
ing, the movement is stopped, regardless of
whether "0" or "1" is received. If a telegram is re-
ceived one of these communication objects and
one of the end devices is not moving, no operation
is performed.

6 Parameters
The selection options for the individual parameters are explained on a case-by-case basis. In the following
images of the different parameter cards, as many parameters are shown as possible. Furthermore, objects
not required according to the parameter settings are hidden.
6.1 "General" menu index card
6.1.1 Motor output configuration
Default value: Combined
Selection options: Combined
Individual
This parameter determines if the motor outputs are configured in a "combined" or "individual" process. If the
"Combined" parameter is selected, only one menu index card is visible for the basic settings of all six motor
outputs (motor 1–6).
The "Combined" option is recommended for projects where the configuration of the motor outputs is the
same.
If the "Individual" parameter is selected, six menu index cards are visible for configuration of the motor out-
puts (Motor 1, Motor 2, etc.).
6.1.2 Group control
Default value: Enabled

This parameter sets the "Security position low priority“ for the corresponding blind. If a telegram with the
value "1" is received by one of these communication objects (objects 55-60), the corresponding blind moves
to position configured in the ETS software.
If a telegram with the value "0" is received by one of these communication objects, no operation is per-
formed. If the "Restore previous position after security" function is set to "Yes" on the "Functions motor 1...6"
menu index card, the blind returns to the position and angle it was in before this priority was enabled once
the "low priority" (value "0") has ended.
6.3.4 Security position high priority
Default value: Upper end limit
Selection options: Upper end limit
Lower end limit
Ignore
Close window
Open window
Stop
This parameter sets the "Security position high priority“ for the corresponding blind. If a telegram with the
value "1" is received by one of these communication objects (objects 61-66), the corresponding blind moves
to position configured in the ETS software.
If a telegram with the value "0" is received by one of these communication objects, no operation is per-
formed.
If the " Restore previous position after security " function is set to "Yes" on the "Functions motor 1...6" menu
index card, it will be checked regardless of whether the "low priority" is active or inactive. If "low priority"
(value "1") is active, the blinds move to the "Security position low priority" position (see previous point). If
"low priority" (value "0") is also active, the blinds return to the last position, with the last angle, they were in
before the high and low priority was enabled.
6.3.5 Cyclic monitor time (in minutes, 0–255)
Default value: 0
Selection options: 0–255 minutes
The cyclic monitor time is active and applies to the high and low priority security objects.
The cyclic transmitter must be four times quicker than the cyclic monitoring. For example, if the cyclic mes-
sage from the transmitter is set to 1 minute, the cyclic monitor time must be set to ≥4 minutes.
6.3.6 Restore previous position after security
Default value: No
Selection options: No
Yes
The parameter setting "Yes" causes the last active run command to be repeated after the security function
has ended. This means that the blind will be moved back to the position in which it was before the receipt of
a telegram with the value "1" at one of the corresponding safety objects (low or high safety).

6.3.7 Automatic/Manual function
Default value: None
Selection options: None
Priority for automatic functions
Priority for manual functions
•None
The position orders are performed in the order in which they are received.
•Priority for automatic functions
If an automatic command (1-byte position order) or IP 2 (1-bit) is received before a manual command (1-bit
command), all manual commands will be disabled. The objects at the start of the intermediate positions 1
(objects 37–42) will also be disabled. The priority of automatic resets will be reset if "Reset priority” receives
"1" or "0" at the corresponding object (79-84). The switch between priority for manual functions (value "0")
and priority for automatic functions (value "1") is performed via the corresponding objects (73–78). After
switching to the relevant priority, the function is in the reset status. For priority for automatic functions, this
means that manual commands will only be blocked with the next automatic command.
HSee Chapter 1 Definitions.
•Priority for manual functions
If a manual command (1 bit or byte) is received before an automatic command (1 byte), all automatic com-
mands and IP 2 will be disabled. Priority for manual functions is reset if "Reset priority" receives "1" or "0" at
the corresponding object (79-84). The switch between priority for manual functions (value "0") and priority for
automatic functions (value "1") is performed via the corresponding objects (73–78). After switching to the rel-
evant priority, the function is in the reset status. For priority for automatic functions, this means that manual
commands will only be blocked with the next automatic command.
HSee Chapter 1 Definitions.
HWith the help of priority for manual functions, the user can disable automatic functions. User comfort can,
for example, be determined with a time switch. At 8 a.m., priority for manual functions is enabled via the rele-
vant object (73–78) and the user can select the desired position using the manual functions until the priority
for automatic functions is enabled at about 5 p.m. It is possible to switch between priority for automatic func-
tions and priority for manual functions at any time via the relevant object (73–78).
HSee Chapter 1 Definitions.
