The Wisotronic is a multifunctional sun shading control system that can con-
trol the various sun shading products (slat products, fabric products, roller
shutters, window drives, etc.) in an intelligent manner and according to the
current weather conditions.
You can either operate your sun shading products manually or leave opera-
tion entirely in automatic control mode. The Wisotronic shields your sun
shading against damaging weather conditions and offers a comprehensive
range of comfort and safety functions. In addition, the Wisotronic can be op-
erated via EWFS transmitters; the radio receiver was integrated in the control
panel.
The Wisotronic evaluates data regarding:
Wind,
Precipitation,
Brightness,
Inside and outside temperature,
Time
And, based on these results, controls the connected Sun City products such
as slack products (external and internal venetian blinds), fabric product (awn-
ings, pleated blinds), vertical louvre blinds, black-out systems, roller shutters
and window drives.

 For this reason, please read these instructions before commissioning and
operating the control.
 It is very important to adhere to the safety information listed here and the
warning information in these instructions. Otherwise, any warranty claims
against the manufacturer become void.
 Keep these instructions for future use.
2.1 Meanings of symbols
and pictographs
The safety information in these instructions is marked with warning symbols.
It is categorised into different warning types depending on the level of poten-
tial danger:

Safety instructions

890557_d•en•01.07.2014 We reserve the right to carry out improvements 9
2.2 Intended use
For each channel, the Wisotronic enables the connection of one conventional
sun shade drive with a single-phase AC motor. Alternatively, multiple sun
shade drives can be connected via motor control units.
WARNING
Please obtain the approval of the manufacturer if you have questions
regarding the connection of devices not listed in these instructions.
All control devices are intended to be installed indoors unless otherwise
specified.
CAUTION
When using window drives, the installer of the system must ensure that
the safety regulations and precautions of DIN EN 60335-2-103 "Special
requirements on drives for gates, doors and windows" as well as ZH 1/494
"(German) guidelines for power-operated doors, windows and gates" are
observed.
WARNING
The Wisotronic may only be used to control such window drives where the
movement of the window cannot cause any injuries!
These windows include (partial list), according to DIN EN 60335-2-103:
Windows with moving parts located at least 2.5m above the floor or other
access levels.
Windows with drives equipped with an external or internal entrapment protec-
tion system.
Windows with an opening speed that does not exceed 50 mm/s when
moving between 15 mm and 50 mm away from the closed position, with a
maximum opening width of 200 mm and with a closing speed that does not
exceed 15 mm/s.
WARNING
The approval of the manufacturer must be obtained for uses outside of the
purposes listed here. The consequences of unintended use may include
personal injuries of the user or of third parties as well as property damage
to the control itself, to connected devices or moveable mechanical parts
of the entire system.
 Therefore, use our product only as intended.

Wisotronic 1-channel
Operating instructions
2.3 Target group
These instructions are addressed to persons operating, adjusting or com-
missioning the control unit. The installation instructions (art. no. 890424) are
available for persons installing, wiring or establishing a mains connection for
the Wisotronic, including all necessary parts.
WARNING
Operation by persons who are not sufficiently qualified and informed can
cause severe damage to the system or may even cause personal injury.
 Commissioning may therefore only be performed by properly trained and
qualified specialists. These technicians must be able to recognize sources of
danger that may be caused by the mechanical, electrical or electronic equip-
ment.
 These qualified technicians must know and understand the content of these
instructions.
2.4 General safety
instructions
The control system controls your sun shading product automatically. You
must therefore observe the following safety instructions:
WARNING
An automatically controlled mechanism can start moving unexpectedly.
 Therefore, never place any objects in the area of movement of an automati-
cally controlled mechanism.
 If measuring or test work needs to be carried out on the active system, make
sure that applicable accident prevention regulations are observed under all
circumstances.
CAUTION
An automatically controlled sun shading system (e.g., roller shutter on
a balcony door) can move down automatically and lock you out. If the
Wisotronic of these types of roller shutters has an automatic control, you
should always "play it safe" and switch it off temporarily before going outside.
CAUTION
The entire system becomes non-functional if power fails. Therefore, move
your sun shading system to a safe position ahead of time if a storm is
pending.
WARNING
Children must not play with this product – remote controls or EWFS
transmitters must not get into the hands of children.
Safety instructions

890557_d•en•01.07.2014 We reserve the right to carry out improvements 11
2.5 Working safely
WARNING
The electrical installation must be performed by a certified electrician in
accordance with the electrical installation regulations published by the
Association of German Electrical Engineers (VDE 0100) or the standards
and regulations of the country in which the device is being installed. The
electrician must observe the installation instructions included with the
electrical device.
If you want to perform work on motor-operated windows or building façades
where motor-operated sun shading products are installed, then
 Switch the system to a de-energised state.
 Make sure that the unit has been sufficiently secured against unauthorised or
unintentional reactivation.
 In any case, use suitable safety devices for personal protection.
 Never place or store any items in the motion area of automatically operated
mechanisms (e.g. ladder against a house wall with an articulated arm awn-
ing).
WARNING
Dangerous situations, malfunctions and property damage to the unit
may result from improperly executed mounting, connection, repair or
maintenance work.
 Such work may only be carried out by the service department or by author-
ised qualified personnel.
 Only use such spare/replacement parts for maintenance or repair work as
have been approved by the manufacturer of the unit.
WARNING
Dangerous situations, malfunctions and property damage to the unit may
result if connections are disconnected during operation! All connections
are required for proper operation of the control.
 Therefore, switch off the entire system before attaching or detaching connect-
ing lines.
WARNING
Danger to life and property damage through sudden movement of the
mechanism!

Wisotronic 1-channel
Operating instructions
2.6 Retrofitting and
modifications
We have designed and built the Wisotronic with reliability and safety in mind.
All required settings are made when the unit is first commissioned. Modifica-
tion of the unit parameters is therefore only required when the characteristics
of the control need to be adjusted, changes are made to the sensor equip-
ment or the control itself is replaced.
WARNING
Retrofitting and modifications may impact the safety of the system or
reduce its effectiveness. Possible consequences may include death,
serious or light injuries, and property or environmental damage.
 Therefore, contact us or your specialist dealer before retrofitting or changing
the system or the unit parameters if you cannot find information on the cor-
responding topic in the control unit documentation. This is the only way to
ensure trouble-free retrofitting/modification.
 Exercise special care when components of different versions are combined
or when existing components are replaced by older/newer products with a
different scope of functions or a different software version.

and scenes or current weather data and measuring values in the display.
Simply move a finger along the circular depression (clockwise or anticlock-
wise). When you press the middle of the touch wheel, a preselected menu
item opens, for example, or a modified value is accepted.

3.2 Menu elements
An overview of the menu elements is provided below. The menus are gener-
ally structured as shown in the following example.
The header on the very top shows you the menu in which you are located.
This is followed by six menu lines whereby each line represents a value. The
designation of the setting value is shown on the left side, and the current
value is shown on the right. The selected menu line is highlighted in colour.
If the text is shown in a black line (or if the colour scheme is bright white),
this setting cannot be selected because it does not apply to the selected
product or this function was switched off in another menu item.
A narrow scroll bar on the right edge of the screen indicates the section of
the menu in which you are located and whether further menu items exist.
Turning the touch wheel clockwise moves the selection bar downward and
turning it anticlockwise moves the bar up. If the menu has more than six lines
(indicated by the scroll bar at the right of the screen), all lines move down or
up and additional settings values become visible.
When the middle of the touch wheel is touched, the colour of the setting in
the selected line changes. This means that the value can now be set by turn-
ing the touch wheel.
In the footer on the bottom you will see four fields with functions. They are
located above the four function buttons and can be activated by touch. The
commands change depending on the menu and menu item shown. In the
example shown, you can use the [Main] function button to open the main
menu. Press the [Back] function button to return to the higher level menu.

After you have set a desired value, you must press the touch wheel. This
causes this value to be adopted and the setting changes to the original col-
our. Another turn of the touch wheel does not cause the value to change but
moves the selection bar up or down once more.
Apart from setting numeric values, a selection of presettings as well as the
following operating elements can also be shown at the right side:
In the first line you will see a bar graph at the right. The current value and the
units are shown above the bar; the extreme values that can be set are shown
at the left and right of the bar graph. By turning the touch wheel, the bar
moves to the right or left; the value changes accordingly.
You will see a box in each of the two lines below. This value is deactivated if
it is empty. By selecting the line and turning the touch wheel, a checkmark
can be set in the bottom row of the illustration; this value is then activated.
Tilting products (External Venetian Blinds and Louvre Blinds)
The movement behaviour of these tilting or slat products when controlled
manually (on site or centrally via control panel) is as follows:
A brief push of the button (shorter than approx. 0.6 seconds) triggers a tilting
impulse of the slats.
A longer push of the button (longer than approx. 0.6 seconds) triggers a
movement.

Fig. 3 Overview of the structure of a Wisotronic system
The Wisotronic is a complete solution for controlling your sun shading prod-
uct.
Whatever the season, Wisotronic will lower your energy consumption and
provide for a pleasant climate. The multisense weather station delivers all in-
formation necessary to respond properly to the weather to the Wisotronic.
To make it possible for you to operate the sun shading product in the con-
ventional manner, Wisotronic makes additional inputs available for connect-
ing a conventional sunblind push button.

3.4 Concept
Before you install and start the Wisotronic, this chapter will explain the basic
concept of the system and familiarise you with the many options and the
complex projects it can be used to realise.
3.4.1 Channels, facades and
products
Because misunderstandings have already occurred regarding the term
"Facade" in the area of sun shading control systems, this point shall be ex-
plained here in more detail:
The Wisotronic has 1, 2, 3 or 4 channels, depending on the model. Each
channel can access either a single product (e.g. an awning) or several prod-
ucts of the same type (e.g. roller shutters).
NOTE To actuate multiple products through a single channel of the Wisotronic,
additional components may be required (such as motor control units).
➊➋➌
Fig. 4 Example: channels of the Wisotronic
Example In the example illustrated above, channel controls the awning on facade 1,
channel 2the conservatory awning on facade 2 and channel 3the external
venetian blinds of the conservatory on facade 2. This demonstrates that a
distinction according to building facades cannot be made in this example
since the individual channels are of importance here.
Example Another example: The Wisotronic controls all roller shutters on the west fa-
cade with channel 1, all roller shutters on the south facade with channel 2
and all roller shutters on the east facade with channel 3. Because the control
is divided here according to the facades, the term "facade" instead of "chan-
nel" could be used in this example.

NOTE In these instructions we only use the term "Channel".
The Wisotronic always activates products through logic channels. The follow-
ing product types can presently be activated using the Wisotronic:
Articulated arm awning Inside roller blind
Conservatory awning Vertical awning
External venetian blind Facade awning
Roller shutters Drop-arm awning
Pleated blind Markisolette
Venetian blind Fault alarm contact
Window
A product is connected directly to the outputs of a switch actuator of the
Wisotronic. It requires one or two switching outputs; for example, sun shad-
ing products require two switching outputs for raising and lowering.
3.4.2 Groups
If you want to drive several channels together, they can be combined into a
group. You can then, for example, raise or lower the conservatory awning
and the external venetian blind of a conservatory together.
NOTE The group “inherits” the product properties of the first assigned channel; if
this is a roller shutter, for example, then the operating behaviour of the group
corresponds to that of a roller shutter even if other slat products or windows
belong to this group.
Of course, channels with identical products can also be combined to a
group. For example, if you have created a channel for the roller shutters
of each room, then all roller shutters of the building can be combined in a
group and moved together.
A maximum of 4 groups can be created.
NOTE This function is not available for Wisotronic 1-channel since is does not have
more than one channel.
3.4.3 Scenes
A scenario (e.g. “roller shutter DOWN, articulated arm awning UP, window
CLOSED” when leaving the flat) can be stored (“learned”) in a scene and be
called at a later time.
For this, one or more channels are associated with the scene and the posi-
tions and states are set as desired. After the scene is stored, this scenario
can be recalled at any time by selecting the scene.
A maximum of 4 scenes can be created.
