Scenes
You can use the scene functions when you wish to give the user the option of modifying different room functions simultaneously via just one bus telegram. Loading a room scene allows you, for example:
-
Dim the room lighting to a required value,
-
move the blinds into a required position,
-
set the heating control to daytime operation,
-
and switch on the power supply to the socket-outlets in a room.
Since these functions have different telegram formats and the telegram values can also have different meanings (e.g. value "0" means OFF for lighting and OPEN for blinds), the same setting would require many different telegrams without the scene function.
The scene function allows you to integrate the actuator into a scene controller. There are memory slots for up to 16 different scene values for each output channel.
Each of these 16 scene memories can be assigned to one of 64 possible scene numbers (0 – 63 or 1 – 64).
You can save brightness values as scene values in the form of percentages. If the actuator receives a telegram which loads a scene number, the assigned output channel will be dimmed to the saved brightness level. The brightness values for the individual scenes saved during commissioning can be overwritten by the user at a later point if changes are required.
For telegram values from "0" to "63", the brightness values saved for this scene number will be loaded and the dimmer outputs set accordingly.
For telegram values from "128" to "191", the current brightness values of the assigned dimming outputs will be saved as new scene values for the transmitted scene number.
