2.5. Roller blind control

2.5.1. Decentralized roller blind up-down function

Description
The decentralized roller blind up-down control makes it possible to run Dupline roller blind control modules
for roller blind and sun blind motors. By organizing the up- and down-channels, the Master Generator ensures
undisturbed operation by preventing both directions from being activated at the same time and ensuring that
the delay time is observed.
The up-channel generally overrides the down-channel, ie if both are activated at the same time, the Master
Generator will execute the up-command.
Address configuration
The roller blind control can only be configured for an uneven channel number. This means that the up-channel
must have an uneven address number assigned to it and the down-channel must have an even address num-
ber assigned to it. This reflects the address coding of the roller blind modules. Here the up-channel must also
have an uneven output assigned to it, while the down-channel must have an even output channel addressed
to it.
Note: When, in spite of correct address configuration, the motor runs in the opposite direction, the corre-
sponding connecting cables of the motor are reversed. In this case, correct connection must be ensured - the
channels must under no circumstances be reversed.
Operation
The up- and down-buttons configured for the addresses of the roller blind control allow very simple operation:
• By pressing the direction key once, the motor runs to the end position or for the duration of the roll time.
• By pressing the same direction key once more, the motor stops.
• By pressing in the opposite direction, the motor stops shortly and runs in the opposite direction until it
reaches end position or for the duration of the roll time.
When the option "Tilted blinds" is selected, the following options are available:
• If the direction key is pressed for less than three seconds, the motor stops when the key is no longer
pressed.
• If the direction key is pressed for more than three seconds, the motor runs to the end position or for the
duration of the run time. Here it is also possible to stop the motor by pressing the key once more or let it
run in the opposite direction by pressing the other direction key.
The Tilted blinds function makes it possible to activate the sun blinds shortly, so that in stead of causing up-
or down-movenment it changes the position of the tilting blinds.
Automating the roller blind control
Surely, many methods of automatic operation of roller blinds exist. Not only wind- and rain sensors, but also
light sensors and clock timers increase comfort through automatic functions.
Such functions should - if not configured as priority address - usually be made by means of Logic setup,
where primarily edge triggering is to be used which prevents continuous signals and allows permanent opera-
tor control. Further details can be found in the chapter on Logic Setup.
