MANUAL CONTROL
MAXinBOX SHUTTER 4CH / 8CH v2 allows commanding orders through the
pushbuttons on the top of the device to move the shutter up or down. Two specific
pushbuttons are provided per channel (i.e., one per relay output).
Manual operation can be done in two different ways, named as
Test On Mode
(for
testing purposes during the configuration of the device) and
Test Off Mode
(for a
normal use, anytime). Whether both, only one, or none of these modes should be
accessible needs to be parameterised in ETS. Moreover, it is possible to enable a
specific binary object for locking and unlocking the manual control in runtime.
Note
:
The
Test Off mode
will be active (unless it has been disabled by parameter)
after a download or a reset with no need of a specific activation
– the
pushbuttons will respond to user presses from the start.
On the contrary, switching to the
Test On mode
(unless disabled by
parameter) needs to be done by long-pressing the Prog/Test button (for at
least three seconds), until the LED is no longer red and turns yellow. From
that moment, once the button is released, the LED light will remain green to
confirm that the device has switched from the Test Off mode to the Test On
mode. After that, an additional press will turn the LED yellow and then off,
once the button is released. This way, the device leaves the Test On mode.
Note that it will also leave this mode if a bus power failure takes place or if a
manual control lock is sending from KNX bus
.
Test Off Mode
Under the Test Off Mode, the shutter channels can be controlled through both their
communication objects and the actual pushbuttons located on the top of the device.
When one of these buttons is pressed, the shutter will behave as if an order had been
received through the corresponding communication object, and will also send the
status objects when required.
This behaviour depends on the length of the button press:
