ANNEX I. SLATS PRECISE CONTROL
Zennio actuators allow controlling the movement of shutter, blinds or similar, which may be
included in any of the following types:
Shutter (No slats)
Blind (with slats)
Depending on the type of shutter, the ACTinBOX MAX6 application program will show different
options.
In this concrete section, the parameters of the Blinds with slats will be explained.
As an introduction, it is important to keep in mind the shutters positioning criteria the actuator uses:
The shutter is in the position "up" (position
0%
, in percentage) when it is completely
open
.
The shutter is in the position "down" (position
100%
, in percentage) when it is completely
closed
.
And the slats positioning criteria:
The slats are in the position "up" or opened (position
0%
, in percentage) when they are in
a position where they can only start moving downward.
The slats are in the position "down" or closed (position
100%
, in percentage) when they
are in a position where they can only start moving upward.
The figure 4.1. shows a scheme of the positions the slats may adopt.
It is necessary to take into account that the shutter actuators control shutter drives without
feedback, where the slats are adjusted through a mechanism linked to the shutter movement. This
means that
a slats movement will provoke a change in the shutter position
.
