Application Manual
Hotel rooms – room automation
When a room is not booked (or, if desired, when the guest is absent), a weather station outside the building protects
up to 4 façades from extreme sunlight in the summer. This function helps to keep the rooms cool. The weather
station also protects the blinds from damage caused by strong winds or other natural influences. On sunny winter
days, the weather station raises the blinds to let solar radiation make a natural heat contribution.
When the guest is present, the blinds can be controlled via the pushbuttons and automatic operation is off.
Remote control
Integration of a webserver facilitates remote control and monitoring on a PC or smartphone via webbrowser.

Individual room temperature control
The room operator unit (UP 204) acquires the tem-
perature and makes it available to the room controller
(RXB) which controls the fan coil unit and calculates
the demand for heat/refrigeration. The result of the
calculation is sent to the primary controller via the
KNX bus.
Time program and hotel booking system
Time programs for up to 10 rooms or room groups
can be defined in the central control unit (RMB). A
time program sets the periods of time the room is not
used. During these time periods, the operating mode
is set to Protection, resulting in a lower temperature
setpoint. After that, the setpoint is raised to the Econ-
omy level.
Room automation can also communicate with the
hotel's booking system. When the guest checks in,
the room temperature is prematuraly raised to the
Comfort level. During the periods of time the hotel is
closed or in non-booked rooms, valuable heating
energy is automatically saved by changing the operat-
ing mode to Economy.
Presence-dependent heating control
When the presence detector signals room occupancy,
the room temperature is raised or lowered to the
Comfort level. When the guest leaves the room by
opening the door, the door contact as the last device
sends a signal, causing the room temperature to be
lowered or raised to the Precomfort level.
Presence-dependent lighting control
When the room is no longer occupied, the lighting is
automatically switched off.

Blinds control
The weather station (AP257/32) with its built-in GPS
receiver measures solar radiation and controls shad-
ing to protect the façade against sunlight. Up to 4
façades can be selected for automatic and individual
control.
In cold winter nights, the blinds are lowered to im-
prove the building's thermal insulation. On sunny
winter days, the blinds are raised, allowing sunlight to
enter the room so that energy is gained.
When the room is occupied, automatic operation is
deactivated. The blinds can then be controlled via the
pushbuttons.
Protection of blinds
The weather station acquires continuously the wind
speed. If strong winds occur, the blinds are raised to a
secure position.
Remote control and monitoring
Using a webbrowser, all rooms can be controlled and
monitored via webserver (OZW). The following pa-
rameters can be monitored:
·
Current state of windows and doors
·
Current room temperatures
·
Current room temperature setpoints
·
Current operating modes
If required, the following parameters can be changed:
·
The room operating modes, individually or
in groups
·
The room temperature setpoints, individual-
ly or in groups
·
The time program for every room or for
groups of rooms
Display of energy efficiency
The OZW772 webserver is able to display the HVAC
system's energy efficiency, which reminds the user if
– from the point of view of energy efficiency – settings
beyond the permitted limits were made. If nonefficient
operating states occur, the user is notified via e-mail
or smartphone app. The limit values can be set by the
user.
