In addition, you must activate the required façades individually in order to load the
menus for the safety and automation functions.
Furthermore, fundamental settings for the façade controller are made in the façade
menu, e.g. for wind and rain alarm, twilight, outdoor temperature sensor, frost and
heat protection and the status output.
General settings
Set, in which cases threshold values received are to be kept per object. Please note that
the setting "After power restoration and programming" should not be used for the ini-
tial start-up, as the factory settings are always used until the first call (setting via ob-
jects is ignored).
Live monitoring
If the functionality of the wind and rain sensors is to be checked, use wind and rain ob-
ject monitoring. If data is not regularly being received from the sensors, a defect is as-
sumed and the corresponding alarm is triggered.
Independently of live monitoring, the measured values for wind, outdoor temperature
and global radiation (pyranometer) are monitored
for changes
. After 48 hours with-
out any change in the measured values a defect is assumed and the corresponding
function is set to alarm or block. No settings are required for this.
Wind and rain alarm
Set the automation block for wind and rain alarm. Please observe, that this block be-
gins after the end of the wind or rain alarm and is
only valid for automation
. It
avoids frequent extension and retraction during rapidly changing weather conditions.
Manual operation is again possible directly after the end of the alarm.
