Description 1.1. Area of use The CasaConnect KNX Control Center is a control unit for the KNX building bus system. The graphical touchscreen and the integrated automatic functions allow easy central setting and operation of the technical equipment installed in the building. The basic configuration is made using ETS.
Description Information about the control center So that the CasaConnect KNX Control Center can be used to its full, envisaged ex- tent, the following information must be available in the LNX system: Information in the KNX system required Wind speed for wind alarm Precipitation for rain and frost alarm...
Description Control possibilities The following motors and devices in the KNX system can be controlled by the Casa- Connect KNX: Function block A (for motors or lights): • Awnings • Blinds • Shutters • Windows and sliding roofs • Lighting •...

Operation 2.1. Start page With the CasaConnect KNX Control Center you can centrally operate the technol- ogy connected via the KNX bus, e.g. raise and lower shades, switch devices on and off, and dim lights. All basic and automatic settings are also shown on the display after the basic configuration has been set in the ETS.
Operation So that the menu item is displayed in the Manual menu and/or in the Start menu, the display has to be activated in the setting "Manual menu" in the installation settings. System > Set screen > ... > Manual menu Display and setting area right: The start image of the control center shows the current weather data and, if configured in the ETS, other sensor data.

Operation Outside air data (first page): Outside temperature at the weather station in degrees Celsius (°C) Humidity in % rF content in ppm For the outside temperature value, night back cooling, frost alarm and window movement limit are shown alternately as soon as the corresponding function is ac- tive.
Operation 2.2. The touch display The manual controls and the default setting of the automatic functions and the basic setting are performed via the permanently installed touch display of the control center. The button surfaces are actuated by pressing the display in the respective area. If a but- ton is pressed, there is optical feedback and a brief audio signal is emitted.
Operation • Input: for sensors You can change the display sequence in the manual menu here: System > Set screen > Manual page 5.2.5.

Operation ATTENTION Property damage due to movement of frozen-solid shades! Motor and curtain can be damaged if a frozen solid outside shade is moved. • Before switching off the frost alarm manually, ensure that the rails are not frozen. Icons for different functions: Wind alarm! Manual operation locked.

Automatic 6.1. Procedure So that you can set the automatic functions in this chapter, the basic setting must al- ready be made in the ETS (See chapter 4 “Basic settings in the ETS” on page 39) and in the System control menu (See chapter 5 “Basic settings in the Control Center” on page 75).
Automatic Please adjust the settings for motors and devices to the individual circumstances. Only in this way can alarm and lock functions such as rain and wind warnings help, for ex- ample, to protect outside awnings or to prevent rain entering through windows. 6.2.1.
Automatic nights. If the twilight value is set below 10 lux, shades that are set for "Night closing" remain open due to the moonlight or open during the night. Twilight: Displays the twilight limit value. Tap the field to adjust the value using the slide regu- lator.
Automatic 6.3.4. Set time switch event System > Set automatic > General settings > Time switch event 32 times can be set in the weekly clock, which can be used for temperature regulators. The time and day of the week are set for each time. Time switch event: Displays how many time switches are set.
Automatic 6.3.6. Adjust frost alarm System > Set automatic > General settings > Frost alarm The frost alarm for blinds and windows will be active when during or after precipitation the outdoor temperature falls below a defined level. "Frost alarm" is then displayed on the start page. 7.4.
Automatic 6.3.7. Set movement limit (windows) System > Set automatic > General settings > Movement limit The movement limit determines that a window only opens partly when the outdoor temperature is low. This prevents excessive cooling of the room. "Movement limit" is then displayed on the start page. 7.4.
Automatic After a manual operation, the motor or device remains in manual mode, automatic mode is switched off. However, you can set it so that automatic mode switched on again after a certain time. Motors and devices are also reset to automatic with the gen- eral automatic reset.
Automatic • Automatic reset • Manual switching It two contradictory automatic functions overlap, the automatic function further down the list has priority. Icing-up of rails of the shades: Be aware that the rails of blinds, awnings and shutters, which are fitted outside, can ice up.

After the timed opening, the normal automatic shade controls are performed again. Frost alarm: Shows whether the shade is retracted if there is a frost alarm.
Automatic Default setting: 6.0 m/s. If the shade should not react to the wind (e.g. for indoor awnings, shutters), switch the wind alarm OFF. The wind alarm protects sensitive curtains from wind damage by retracting the shades. A wind alarm actuated for the motor will remain active for 5 minutes. In addition, a wnid delay can be set for shades.

Automatic This means that e.g. timed ventilation or night back cooling will only occur, when the exterior temperature lies over the pre-set value for the outdoor temperature block. Automatic ventilation according to temperature or humidity of VOC/CO only performed if no block is active. Set automatic mode Sensor selection: Shows the indoor sensor, which is evaluated for controlling the windows.

Automatic VOC (mixed gas): Shows the VOC concentration from which ventilation is active. The setting is only ac- tive if an indoor sensor with VOC sensor is selected. Tap the field to adjust the VOC val- Select OFF if the window should not react to VOC value of the indoor air (default). Switch to ON in order to set the VOC concentration range.

Automatic Rain alarm: Shows whether the rain alarm is switched on. Touch the field and switch the rain alarm on or off for this window. Default setting: No. The rain alarm provides protection from humidity damage by closing the window. Manually opened windows are also closed if there is a rain alarm.
Automatic dow in the Manual menu and hold down the button with the frost alarm icon for ap- prox. 1 second. Manual operation is released again. The block will then be first active for this motor again when it is reactivated manually or the next time the frost alarm is triggered.
Automatic Alarm functions If there is a fire alarm from a smoke detector, ventilation is activated and cannot be influenced either by the automatic controls or manually. Ventilation settings Ventilation according to temperature, humidity and CO is checked every second. For exhaust units, the power is increased as the values above the setpoint increase.

Automatic The supply air flaps are only opened if the set outdoor temperature is reached. At the end of the ventilation time, normal automatic ventilation takes place according to tem- perature and humidity. Timed ventilation: Intensity (exhaust units): For exhaust units, shows the speed at which the time-controlled ventilation is per- formed.
Automatic Manual switching: Shows whether a position message is used by the motor to switch from automatic to manual, i.e. whether automatic mode is switched off by pressing a button if there is an external manual operation. Default setting: No. 6.4.4.
