Safety precautions
– Contact a professional electrician to install the control system.
– Check the control system for signs of mechanical damage after un-
packing. If you notice any shipping damage, do not start up the control
system and notify your supplier immediately.
– The control system should only be used for the purpose specified by
the manufacturer (refer to the operating instructions). Any changes or
modifications thereof are not permissible and will result in loss of all
warranty claims.
– If the control unit cannot be operated without presenting a hazard, it must
be switched off and prevented from being switched on unintentionally.
– When performing work on the windows, controls or connected shades,
protect them against unauthorised or unintentional operation.
Ä
WARNING!
Risk of injury due to improper installation and commissioning.
Improper installation and commissioning may lead to personal injury or
property damage.
Therefore:
– When connecting the device, observe the currently valid VDE standards
(in particular DIN VDE 0100/0700), your local power company’s regula-
tions and the current accident prevention regulations.
– Connect the control in accordance with the wiring diagram.
– Only use central control with floating contact output.

IDS Function
The IDS (Intelligent Decentralised Sunshade control) feature enables the sun- and
temperature dependant control signals on the central controls to be disabled when
a button is pressed on the decentralised controls. No additional installation work is
required.
In operating mode 4 the IDS-Function enables you to suppress sun- and temperature
dependent extract or extend commands while all other central commands, such as for
privacy and safety protection use are continuously executed. To enable this function
connect a switch to terminal “sun/temp”.
In operating modes 9 and 10, the sun- or temperature-dependent central commands
are masked by pressing the group or individual button. All further sun- and tempera-
ture-dependent retract/extend commands will then be masked for 4 hours. Each addi-
tional operation via the group command or individual command will result in the sun-
or temperature-dependent central commands being masked for a further 4 hours.
After the set period has elapsed, the motor control will be reset automatically and all
sun- and temperature-dependent central controls will then be executed as normal.
Functional description
Operating mode 1: The group/single command will be stored after 2s;
group/individual control of up to 2s will run the sunshade for the
duration of the command (dead man’s operation).
A central command will run the sunshade for the duration of the
command (dead man’s operation).
Operating mode 2: The group/single command will be stored after 5s;
group/individual control of up to 5s will run the sunshade for the
duration of the command (dead man’s operation).
A central command will run the sunshade for the duration of the
command (dead man’s operation).
Operating mode 3: The group/single command will be stored immediately.
A central command will run the sunshade for the duration of the
command (dead man’s operation).
Operating mode 4: The group/single command will be stored after 2s;
group/individual control of up to 2s will run the sunshade for the
duration of the command (dead man’s operation).
Sun- and temperature dependent central commands can be
suppressed by means of a switch at the terminals “sun/temp”.
Operating mode 5: Special function 1
Operating mode 6: Special function 2
Operating mode 7: The group/single command will be stored immediately.
The central command will be stored immediately.
Operating mode 8: The group/single command will be stored after 2s;
group/individual control of up to 2s will run the sunshade for the
duration of the command.
The central command will be stored after 2s; central operation
of up to 2s will run the sunshade for the duration of the com-
mand.
Operating mode 9: The group/single command will be stored after 2s;
group/individual control of up to 2s will run the sunshade for the
duration of the command (dead man’s operation).
Sun- and temperature-dependent central commands can be sup-
pressed for 4 hours by pressing the group or individual button.
Operating mode 10: The group/single command will be stored immediately.
Sun- and temperature-dependent central commands can be sup-
pressed for 4 hours by pressing the group or individual button.
NOTE FOR OPERATING MODES 9 AND 10!
Pressing the group button will block all 4 outputs for sun- and tempera-
ture-dependent central commands for 4 hours simultaneously. Pressing
an individual button will only block that particular output from sun- and
temperature-dependent central commands for 4 hours.
