The number of outputs depends on the respective device model. Up to four 230 V AC drives 1.2 Device models WAREMA offers the BACnet sun shading actuators in surface-mounted housing (AP). 1.3 Additional documentation Further information about installation and commissioning of the BACnet sun shading actuators can be found in the associated installation instructions.
BACnet 4M230.8I AP 2 Safety instructions We have developed and tested the BACnet sun shading actuators in compli- ance with the basic safety requirements. Residual risks nevertheless remain. For this reason, please read this manual before commissioning and operat- ing the control. It is very important that you adhere to the safety instructions listed in this section and the warnings contained in this manual.
Safety The i symbol designates important information and helpful tips. Example The term Example denotes an example. The square denotes an instruction or a prompt for action. Perform this ac- tion. The triangle denotes an event or the result of a preceding action. The black triangle is a bullet point for lists or selections.
BACnet 4M230.8I AP 2.3 Target group These instructions are intended for persons who are commissioning a sun shading system in BACnet MS/TP technology as well as for qualified techni- cians. Knowledge of BACnet MS/TP technology is essential. WARNING Commissioning and operation by persons who are not sufficiently qualified and informed can cause severe damage to the unit or may even cause personal injury.
Description 3 Description The actuator controls 4 drives for venetian blinds. There are several possi- bilities for control, which have different priority and are listed in the following chapters. The priorities are, from highest to lowest: Safety run Internal push buttons Calibration Inputs for external push buttons Move commands...
Safety run/ BACnet 4M230.8I AP Calibration 4.1 Special function: Motor grouping This function applies to the external buttons, where one button controls sev- eral motors or several buttons control one motor, or a combination thereof. It works just like an electrical parallel connection of one button to several inputs or several buttons to one input.
Move commands 5 Safety run The activation via binary value object Safety_run applies to all 4 drives to- gether. The actuator switches all drives to move to their upper limit positions for their parameterised run time (analogue value Run_time_UP_N). The binary value remains active after this.
Setpoint position BACnet 4M230.8I AP 7 Move commands The following move commands can be given with the multi-state value Blind_N. OFF state command = 1 No move command is active. This is also true once control is carried out with a higher priority. STOP state command = 2 The current move command is stopped, specifically also a run to the setpoint position.
Control 8 Setpoint position Moving to a setpoint position occurs when writing the analogue values Blind_ length_N and Slat_position_N. The drive's run times are determined with the help of the parameterised values. Run_time_DOWN_N → = 90 s → (Total run time downwards) Slat_min_angle_N →...
Movement BACnet 4M230.8I AP 9 Control with multiple steps The control options presented in the previous chapters lead to short pro- grammes for the movement that are processed step by step. Whenever a new programme is activated, the previous one is deleted, i.e. cancelled, be- forehand.
Configuration file 11 Reporting movement, position and angle The binary value Blind_N_in_motion reports whether the drive is in motion or not. The analogue values Blind_lengthFB_N and Slat_positionFB_N report the current position in percent and the current slat angle in degrees. They have already been mentioned above in the preparation of the control programmes.

PC). Restoring factory setting A config file is provided on the WAREMA homepage for this purpose. It must then be imported via config upload, after which all parameter values and de- scriptions / names are reset to factory settings.
Notes Restoring configuration file Select "Data transfer / Restore" in the menu. Then enter the file name (on the PC). Then select the device or several devices and click "Restore". This access works with BACeye/SC v3.0.4.4. This access does NOT work with BACeye/SC v3.0.3.6 and BACeye/SC v3.0.2.5.
