Operation Operation For the configuration of the parameters, select the installation and the desired device. Then scroll down to the parameters. The overview shows the individual parameters in their sequence of appearance during operation. Notice Some changes must, if necessary, be saved via the "Save" button for them to become effective.
Page 30
Operation The general operating principle is identical for all expansion stages (selection options in drop- down window, settings via controller, etc.). However, there are differences for the function of the movement detector (Chapter 3.7 “Busch-free@home® Next AppFunction overview / selector switch“...
Page 31
Operation Operation "Device control" 5.1.1 Overview of parameters Switch-off pre-warning Before switching off the light, the end of the illumination period is displayed via the connected load (e.g. an LED lamp). The switch-off pre-warning is only active during the switch-off delay, not at a manual switch-off.
Page 32
Operation Switch-on Different settings can be preselected. If the ambient brightness drops below the selected criterion, a movement detection leads to the switch-on of the connected lamp. Always – independent of the brightness – 15 lx (factory setting) – Takeover of the current threshold value Threshold value –...
Page 33
Operation Operation "Room control" 5.2.1 Overview of channel parameters The movement detector has a total of 4 channels. Each channel can be linked with different actuators. Each channel can be used and parameterised independently. Different sensitivities, transmission ranges and switching thresholds can be programmed for each channel. And for each channel the movement detection can be manually blocked individually.
Page 34
Operation 5.2.2 Overview of brightness sensor parameters Channel name Here an individual name can be assigned to the channel. Function This parameter indicates the current function of the actuator. Alarm switch-off delay 11 sec..10 min..1 The set time defines how long the brightness must be below the threshold hour value before the brightness alarm is cancelled.
Page 35
Operation 5.2.3 Overview of actuator parameters Channel name Here an individual name can be assigned to the channel. Position The parameter is used to specify the position of the actuator in the virtual building ground plan (floors and rooms). Button This button can be used to switch the actuator.
Page 36
Operation Permanent operating mode This parameter relates to the "Permanent mode" function. Here the light retains the current status independent of movement, brightness and operation. When the "Permanent mode" function is activated, the LED on the MD lights up permanently red. The permanent mode is active for the time set under the "Switch-off delay Time limited permanent mode".

Operation Operation "Home automation" 5.3.1 Overview of channel parameters The movement detector has a total of 4 channels. Each channel can be linked with different actuators. Each channel can be used and parameterised independently. Different sensitivities, transmission ranges and switching thresholds can be programmed for each channel. And for each channel the movement detection can be manually blocked individually.

Operation Operation type Standard operation Switching duration for a period of 10 seconds - 30 minutes. Short-time pulse of 1 second for activating e.g. door bells, staircase lighting timer switches. Short-time pulse At constant movement, the short-time pulse is repeated every 10 seconds (1 s on, 9 s off).
Page 41
Operation Individual operating functions Test mode / Activation test The activation test serves for checking the detection range by means of pacing off. A switch-off delay of two seconds is activated during the activation test, the device operates independent of brightness.
Page 42
Operation Performing the activation test 1. Pace off the detection range. – Each detection is indicated by the status LED flashing quickly. 2. Adjust the detection range according to your needs and test the adjustment by means of renewed pacing off. Ending the activation test The device ends the "Activation test"...

Operation Reducing the detection range / the sensitivity Notice The limitation of the detection range can also take place directly on the device. The detection angle can be specifically limited by gluing on the enclosed foil. The detection range of the Busch-Watchdog ®...
Page 44
Operation Automation/Timer Notice The device is not equipped with batteries. – Time programs are stopped at a power failure. – The time in the device is synchronized again only at the next connection with the app. Up to 28 switching times can be programmed via the automation. Each starting time has a weekday function and can programmed for one or several weekdays.
Page 45
Operation 5.5.1 Automation/Timer settings Different switching times can be programmed in the automation area. The following overview shows the setting options and parameters in their sequence of appearance during operation. Notice Performed changes must, if necessary, be saved via the "Save" button for them to become effective.
