WARNING
It is important to comply with the fol-
lowing points in the interest of personal
safety.
Children may not play with the operating elements of
the control unit or the remote control. Store remote
controls out of reach of children.
Make sure that no persons or objects are in the range
of movement of the driven parts (blinds, external vene-
tian blinds, etc.).
Disconnect the device from the operating voltage if
cleaning or other maintenance work must be perfor-
med.
Function of the sun shading actuator
You will find a detailed description of the software func-
tions for the KNX sun shading actuators in the manual
(art. no. 2014 788). You can download the manual and
the product database of the sun shading actuator from
www.warema.com.
Installation
AP:Insert a slotted screwdriver (recommendation: 3.0 - 4.0
mm blade) into a cover opening (Fig. 3) and carefully
pry open the hinged cover. Repeat the procedure for the
second opening of the cover. After both latches have been
unlatched,
the cover can be removed. Open the second cover in
the same way. Alternatively, the AP model may also be
mounted on a DIN rail (TH 35-15 in accordance with EN
60715: 2001).
Electrical connection
An on-site overload current protection device (fuse) and a
disconnecting and isolating switch to switch off the entire
system must be provided.
The electrical connection is made as shown in the wiring
diagram on the reverse side (Fig. 4), the connection to
the KNX bus system and the drives is made using spring
terminals, the connecting lines are designed as screw
terminals.
General information
Fig. 1 KNXSA4MDC.8 AP
The KNXSA4MDC.8AP sun shading actuator is a device
for the central operation of up to four sun shading drives
24VDC pole changer switching with 8 push button
inputs.
The device is operated using a KNX bus system. The
sun shading actuator and the drives are supplied with
24VDC.
Intended use
The KNXSA4MDC.8 AP was developed to control sun
shading products. The approval of the manufacturer
must be obtained for any use of the device other than its
intended purpose specified in these instructions.
Safety instructions
WARNING
The electrical installation must be per-
formed by a certified electrician in ac-
cordance with the electrical installation
regulations published by the Association
of German Electrical Engineers (VDE
0100) or the standards and legal require-
ments of the country in which the device
is being installed. The electrician must
observe the installation instructions inclu-
ded with the supplied electrical devices.
WARNING
If hazard-free operation cannot be assu-
med, the device may not be started or
must be deactivated. This assumption is
justified if:
 the housing or the connecting lines show
signs of damage,
 the device is no longer working.

Commissioning
After the installation has been completed and the operat-
ing voltages have been applied, the connected drives can
be checked via Bluetooth using an app.
You will find a detailed description on the further commis-
sioning in the KNX manual (art. no. 2014 788).
Local operation
You will find the app for operating the KNX sun shading
actuator in the Apple AppStore and in the Google Play
Store.
Download this on your smartphone.
After starting the app, the surrounding area is scanned for
WAREMA sun shading actuators. Available actuators are
shown and can be operated.
Operation via app has the same priority as manual opera-
tion via communication objects. The operating behaviour
is as follows:
Brief push of the button = Step / Stop,
Long push of the button = Move.
A detailed description of the operation is integrated in the
app and can also be found in the associated KNX manual
(art. no. 2014 787).
OTICEN The communication between the smartphone
and the KNX devices is established via Blue-
tooth. This function can be switched off using
the ETS (in default mode, the function is always
"On").
During parameterization, change the default
password in accordance with your specifica-
tions and memorize your password in order to
prevent operation by unauthorized persons.
WARNING
Never randomly press the keys on the app
without having a line of sight to the sun
shading system.
Programming
You can perform programming either in the app or directly
on the device.
There is a Prog button for programming and a display LED
both in the app and on the keypad (see Fig. 2).
The procedure here is basically the same:
Press the programming button in the app or
on the device (Fig. 2) to put the device into
programming mode. The red LED lights up
when programming mode is active. Program-
ming is performed using the ETS on the PC.
This software ends the programming mode
automatically. The red LED goes out.
If the programming mode is to be ended
earlier, press the programming button again.
The red LED goes out.

Maintenance
There are no parts inside the device that require mainte-
nance. In the event of a malfunction, the built-in miniature
fuses should only be changed by a certified electrician.
Liability
Failure to comply with the product information in these in-
structions and any use of the device other than its intend-
ed use may result in the manufacturer refusing to honour
warranty claims for product damage. In this case, liability
for consequential damage to persons or property will also
be excluded. Observe the information in the operating
instructions for your sun shading system. The automatic
or manual operation of the sun shading system while iced
over as well as using the sun shading system during se-
vere weather may cause damage and must be prevented
by the user through suitable precautions.
Disposal
After use, the device must be disposed of according to
legal regulations or turned in to your local recycling centre.
