Configuration
Before configuring the ONYX.WEATHER, download HELLA’s free app ON-
YX
®
from the app store / Google Play to your smart phone.
Before you can use ONYX.WEATHER in combination with ONYX.CENTER,
ONYX.WEATHER must be added to the app ONYX
®
. You will find all infor-
mation regarding the configuration in the instructions for ONYX.CENTER /
ONYX.CLICK, directly in the app ONYX
®
or in the download area on our
homepage https://www.hella.info.
The serial number (ID) to assign multiple ONYX:WEATHER can be
found in the housing of the weather sensor (pull the pluggable bottom
part of the housing downwards).
Setting the wind resistance class for your products.
The wind resistance class can be individually set for every product that is
monitored by the ONYX.WEATHER. The wind resistance class depends on
the sun protection product itself as well as on the type of installation. After
adding the weather sensor, all assigned products are configured with stand-
ard wind resistance classes. These wind resistance classes must then be
adapted individually to the wind resistance classes of your sun protection
product. The information about the wind resistance class of your product can
be found in the technical documentation of your sun protection product.
