Before starting up it is necessary to follow the safety instructions in these instructions.
SOMFY cannot be held liable for defects and damages when these have been caused as a re-
sult of not following instructions (wrong installation, incorrect service etc.). Establishing, testing
and starting up of the equipment is permitted only by a qualified person (in accordance with
VDE 0100). Switch on all connections without voltage. Take precautions against unintentional
turning on.
The installation of the Somfy products may occur only at easily accessible places. If maintenance and re-
pair become substantially hindered by accessibility (e.g. stuck or extensively stuck flooring, installation
behind lamps or behind façades), any originating supplementary costs therein cannot be charged to the
seller.
Subject to technical changes.
The animeo KNX 4 DC Motor Controller WM 24 V DC is suited for selecting up to four individually param-
eterable motors for Venetian blinds, roller shutters, awnings and windows. The local push button inputs
can be used as conventional push buttons or as universal KNX binary inputs.
Functions and advantages
•
Time savings through easy installation, for example using spring connectors, strain relief cable bind-
ers, sufficient enough clamping space.
•
A group input can be used to control all four motors independently of ETS programming.
•
Testing the moving direction of the motors is possible without ETS.
•
The device can be used in delivery state without programming with the ETS software.
•
Four local push button inputs can be used as maximum to connect eight universal KNX binary inputs,
for example window contacts, temperature switches or presence detectors. By using conventional
push buttons, lighting can also be controlled and dimmed.
•
User-friendly and intuitive parameter settings in the ETS software.
•
Intelligent change-over between manual operation and automatic operation to guarantee excellent
user friendliness and energy savings.
•
Position messaging of the motors during the movement and when reaching the upper or lower end
position.
•
Two different safety positions, freely determinable for every individual motor output.
•
Safety position with mains voltage return freely determinable and messaging over building.
•
Automatic cascading of the outputs with mains voltage return and bus-safety functions to minimise
power peaks.
•
Plug and Play! Any time extendable with animeo RTS Radio Module (ref. 1860105) or animeo
EnOcean Receiver (ref. 1860220). Without additional wiring the four motors can be controlled individu-
ally per radio using Somfy RTS technology.
•
Alternatively the animeo KNX RTS Receiver (ref. 1860191) or animeo KNX EnOcean Receiver (ref.
1860229) can be used. Here, without additional wiring, up to 5 universal KNX radio binary inputs can
be gained (e.g. light ON/OFF with DIM).
A complete commissioning is possible if the KNX Motor Controller is connected to and powered
by the KNX bus.
