LEANtouch (monochrome),

Type: 6x36/30M(-500), 6x36/100x(-500), 6x36/100CB
Functional description: Time
programs
Settings
Depending on the parameterisation,
the SMARTtouch panel offers up to 20
(5 for LEANtouch) switch channels.
The number of channels that should
be enabled is defined in the general
settings.
In addition, there is the possibility of
“Enable time programs for end
customers” via the corresponding
parameter. The modification option
can be given a code or fully disabled.
Changes made by the end customer
are stored in the memory of the panel
and are not lost on mains voltage
failure. If however changes are made
to the rest of the panel configuration
and then programmed into the panel,
the panel software overwrites by
default the time settings of the end
customer. This behaviour can be
modified via the setting “Overwrite
time switch settings at download”.
A so-called astro function can also be
activated for the individual switching
times. This means that a set
switching time adapts itself to
sunrises and sunsets. With the option
“Town selection”, it is possible to
select a town in Germany which is
closest to the installation site of the
panel. If the exact coordinates are
known, the longitude and latitude can
also be entered.
Holiday
The LEANtouch/SMARTtouch panel
has the option of setting each
individual channel to a so-called
holiday function. The setting “active on
holidays” can be selected for each
switching time on the switch channel.
Under the menu item “Extra” on the
panel, you can find the “Holiday” touch
surface which you use to activate the
holiday function. Two further buttons
“Start of holiday” and “End of holiday”
are activated which you can use to
enter the required date. If the date for
the “Start of holiday” is reached, all the
corresponding holiday time programs
are activated automatically.
Individual time programs can thus be
retrieved in the holiday period (holiday
profile). When the date for the “End of
holiday” is reached, the holiday time
programs are automatically
deactivated.
The holiday function is activated via
the 1-bit communication object
“Holiday”. An ON telegram switches
the function on while an OFF telegram
switches it off again. The linking of the
object “Holiday” with an internal
address of the panel can of course
also be carried out.
Note:
Please note that only those switch
channels which you have explicitly
selected via the parameter “Switching
function” switch on and off in the
holiday function. This is carried out
separately for each switching time on
the channel.
Switch channels
Each switch channel has at least one
1-bit or 1-byte communication object.
It is therefore possible for switch,
shutter and/or dimming actuators to
be addressed. The bit size is
determined via the setting “Function”.
Alternatively, it can also be
determined via the “Function”
parameter whether a room thermostat
should be addressed via a switch
channel. In this case, the switch
channel has two 1-bit objects
“Standby/Comfort” and “Night”. It is
thereby possible to directly toggle the
“Comfort” and “Night” communication
objects of the room thermostat. These
can either be internal objects of the
panel which are linked via an internal
group address or an external room
thermostat. In the latter case, the
objects must be linked with a
corresponding group address.
An additional 1-bit enable object can
be activated on each switch channel.
This is carried out via the parameter
“Activation object”. If an enable object
is activated, this must receive an ON
telegram so that the time switch
channel is able to switch.
The switch channels of the
SMARTtouch panel have 10 (5 for
LEANtouch) switching times each.
The switching times can either be set
on the panel (see diagram) or in the
parameters of the panel software.
It can be defined on which day of the
week and at which switching time the
channel should be switched.
