adapt their state to the values of the input objects for the simulation. The objects for
normal operation are ignored.
Ending the simulation
Set the value of the object "Façade 1 simulation (1:on | 0:off)" to 0 to end the simulation
for façade 1.
When deactivating the simulation, it is possible that when an automation is performed
for the first time (e.g. sun automation) that the delay times from the simulation are still
used. All output objects of the relevant façade adapt their state to the values of the in-
put objects for normal operation. The simulation objects are once again ignored.
The most recently received values for the simulation objects and also for the objects
for normal operation are retained when switching between simulation and normal
mode. No reset takes place. This means that when the simulation is ended the last used
value for normal operation is applied.
Calculation of the sun position for the simulation
During the simulation it is possible to have the sun position, dependent on the simula-
tion object for date and time, sent to the bus. In order that this functions, a location
must be set in the product parameters or the location received via GPS. As long as the
location is unknown sun positions are not calculated in the simulation.
6.19. Status output
The status of the automation functions of the façade controller can be used for visual-
isation or other bus functions. The device offers various possibilities for the status out-
put.
Object status
A status object is available for every function of the automatic.
For the rain alarm on façade 1, for example, it is the object No. 605 "Façade 1 rain alarm
status".
Status of all façades
The status of all façades and their automatic functions can be issued in a compact form
via an automatic status-bit object. For this purpose, a status of safety, automatic delay
after an alarm, wind extension block, timed opening, outdoor temperature block,
timed/night closure, heat protection, pyranometer, rain automation, indoor tempera-
ture block, shading because of the sun or automatic status, can be issued for every
façade. Only the condition
of one
function
of one
façade is always issued. Using the
object 575 one can switch to the next function (status-bit) and/or with the object 570 to
the next façade.
The objects 568 to 575 are used for the compact output.
