Practical examples
23
That, when approaching the front door, the carport
lighting (a) and the light in the hall (b) go on
automatically.
To be able to vary the brightness of the table lamps
in both bow windows (c & d) by means of a wall
switch or remote control.
To be able to switch the table lamps (f) that are
plugged in a wall socket either by remote control
and/or automatically via a scenario.
To be able to switch the outdoor lighting from in
the living room or kitchen.
To be able to switch the lighting in the garden
shed from in the home, without having to lay
new cables.
That, by means of movement detection, the outdoor
lighting at the rear of the house (g) is switched on
and 10 seconds later, the lights in the living room
(c,d & e) as well.
To be able to switch the lighting in the garage (k)
with three different wall switches.
To be able to switch on the lights in the living room
(c, d & f) and outdoors (g) automatically every day at
dusk with the desired "cosy atmosphere" effect.
When entering or leaving the hall, to be able to
switch all the lights in the living room by means of
one switch.
To be able to switch lighting and/or scenarios from a
distance by means of a (mobile) telephone.
To be able to operate all three positions of the
ventilation mechanism from the kitchen, bathroom
or by means of a time function in the toilet.
The AIX12 interface behind the movement detector in the carport sends a Xanura command
when movement is detected. This command is transposed in the computer interface (CIX) into
a switch-on action for the hall (b) and carport lighting (a). To enable switching in these locations
to be carried out, switching modules (SAIX) are mounted behind the wall switches "a" and "b" in
the hall.
The DAIX10 built-in module behind the toggle pulse switch makes it possible to dim lighting
points (c & d) with both this switch and by remote control.
By providing the wall sockets with a SAX1 module, the wall socket junction box on the
right-hand-side (f) can be switched by a Xanura command. The command can be given with
wall switch f, by remote control and/or automatically via a scenario. For automatic switching,
a computer interface (CIX) is required.
By mounting a switching actuator/switch interface (SAIX) behind switch g, the outdoor lamps
(g) can be switched from in the living room. The second address of the SAIX module behind
switch h in the kitchen can also be used to switch these lamps. This address can easily be
changed (software) for other applications.
Due to the fact that the modules are fed by phase and neutral wires, it is only necessary to
fit a (SAIX) switch in the garden shed (M). Light m can thus be switched from in the shed or
from one or more selected locations in the home, with either switches provided with a switch
interface (AIX) or by remote control.
The AIX12 interface behind the movement detector on the rear wall of the building, sends a
Xanura command via the mains when movement is detected. The outdoor light (g) is then
switched on. A second action can be programmed in the computer interface (CIX) i.e. delayed
switching on of the lighting in the living room (c,d, & e).
By mounting a switching actuator/switch interface (SAIX) behind one wall switch and fitting a
switch interface (AIX) with the same addresses to the other two switches, crisscross switching
can be obtained. This multi-way switching can be extended by fitting extra switch interfaces
(AIX), without having to install extra wiring.
By selecting the right geographical position of the residence programmed in the Xanura
software, the desired lights in the living room (c, d & f) can be switched on when dusk falls.
The geographical clock of the computer interface (CIX) shall automatically follow the times that
the sun sets, so that the lights are switched on each day at different moments. Summer and
winter time are also taken into account.
By allowing the switching actuators to react to group commands, all lighting points are
switched by means of RF phone-in interface (CAX). This fuction can also be obtained with a
group interface (GIX) mounted behind a wall switch or pulse switch.
By connecting a telephone cable to the Communication Access interface (CAX), it is possible to
switch lighting by means of the "*" or "#" buttons of a (mobile) telephone. The same applies to
preset programmed scenarios in the computer interface (CIX).
By fitting two switching actuators (SAX1) in or nearby the mechanical ventilator, it is possible to
operate its three positions by means of a Xanura-ventilator-interface (VIX10) in the bathroom
and kitchen via the lighting network.
4-way toggle pulse switches are used to operate the ventilator. For new buildings, no extra
conduits for the lighting points in the kitchen or bathroom have to be installed. In combination
with the Xanura computer interface and a switching actuator/switch interface (SAIX), it is also
possible to provide time functions in rooms where Xanura components have been fitted. (For
instance light off in the toilet or bathroom: ventilator on in its highest position for 20 minutes).
