U.motion KNX Server Plus, Touch
Installation Manual
If the pre-configured LOAD CONTROL entry is selected and its properties window is opened, you will see the following
screen:
The section REPRESENTATION offers the following parameters:
CYCLE TIME
Time (in seconds) of the “base cycle” of the integrated load control logic. When this
time expires, the loads are controlled, the configured limits are checked and eventual
actions take place.
CYCLES UNTIL BREAK
CYCLES UNTIL RESTART
Amount of base cycles (whose cycle time depends on the previous setting) to be
executed before the logic increments the priority (and therefore turns off loads), or, in
the contrary case, amount of cycles before the logic decrements the priority and
switches loads back on.
Normally a low amount of cycles is used for the break, meanwhile a high amount of
cycles should be set for the restart, in order to prevent a continuous switching of
loads.
MAX. PRIORITY VALUE
Maximum amount of handled priority values; the system will not pass the configured
value, loads with higher priorities are ignored.
CONTROL TYPE
Defines whether U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch is responsible for the load control
(active, default setting) or if the control should be passive, which means through an
external load controller. In the second case, U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch is limited
to the visualisation oft he received information and doesn’t start any actions.
EXECUTION STATE
Shows the state of the load control; normally this field will always show “PLAY”;
nevertheless, the load control can be started and stopped using the corresponding
buttons inside the properties window, for example in order to adapt changes like
adding new loads.
