MANUAL CONTROL
ZoningBOX allows manually operating the the grilles hrough the respective
pushbuttons on the top of the device (one push button per grille).
Contrary to other Zennio devices, ZoningBOX only provides manual operation in
Test
On mode
(for testing purposes during the configuration of the device). This control
mode allows direct control over the outputs with independence of the configuration and
of the grille states, although some safety restrictions apply, as explained below.
Entering the
Test On mode
(unless disabled by parameter) is 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 to the Test On mode. After that, if the
button is pressed again, the LED will turn yellow
– and then off once the button is
released, which means the device has left the Test On mode. Note that it will also
leave this mode if a bus power failure takes place
Once in the Test On mode, any orders from the KNX that may affect the grilles
will be
ignored
and no
status objects
will be sent either. Grille operation in the Test On
mode is performed as follows:
The
first push
on the button will close the relay corresponding to the opening
of the grille, which will keep moving until the button is released.
When the same button is
pressed again
, the grille will invert its motion and
will keep closing until the button is released.
For safety reasons, entering the Test On mode will not be possible while the
connection error, the power supply error or the overheating error are active (see
section 2.3.3). Moreover, whenever one button is being pressed, the device will ignore
any other buttons pressed simultaneous
From ETS it is possible to configure whether the manual control should be available. In
such case, a binary object destined to lock or unlock the manual control in runtime can
be activated as well.
Important
:
the device is delivered from factory with all outputs disabled, but with the
manual control (Test On) enabled
.
