  • Page 7: General Information

    General information The By-me automated system via the control unit 21509 provides integrated control of comfort, security, energy saving, HVAC and remote control in the residential and commercial sectors . This manual is arranged in a sequence of sections that provide a complete understanding of the By-me system and allow the user to take full advantage of the available features: • Chapter 1 “Main functions”: describes what can be controlled with the By-me system (see page 7);...

  • Page 8: Main Functions

    Main functions: 1. Main functions. The By-me system makes it possible to manage the installation using the following controls: • Ambient temperature management, dividing the installation into up to 40 areas controlled by 40 separate pro- grams; • Lighting management, with on/off control and light adjustment; • Control for roller shutters and blinds; • Function centralization and automation (up to 32 scenarios and 16 programs); • Control of the intrusion detection alarm system; • Remote control and monitoring of functions; • Power consumption and load control. • Speaker system management. COMFORT SECURITY Scenarios Wired burglar alarm system Light automation Radio burglar alarm system Shutter automation...

  • Page 9: Basic Concepts

    Basic concepts 2. Basic concepts. This chapter explains some fundamentally important concepts that are necessary for correctly making full use of the system . Note. Some examples refer to the device codes; for further information please refer to the product's instructions sheet. • Functional unit: part of a device that can be considered as if it were a separate device .
  • Page 10 Basic concepts There are no limits on the use of the functional units of a physical device . When a load is to be controlled, it is necessary to provide one control device and one actuator connected to the load . Control appliance with three simple buttons and actuator (Eikon 20545;...
  • Page 11 Basic concepts • Configuration: operation that can be used to create the logic connection between various functional units (of various appliances) . • Functional group (or Group): set of functional units connected logically with each other that provide a function in the system (for example: three different buttons that control a single actuator and, as a result, the same load) .
  • Page 12 Basic concepts To control the switching on of a load from different points, it is sufficient to add more functional units; it is not neces- sary to modify the wiring . Eikon 20521 Eikon 20521 Eikon 20535 Idea 16961 Idea 16961 Idea 16975 Plana 14521 Plana 14521...
  • Page 13 Basic concepts • Line: any set of devices . • Scenario depth: number of scenarios to which a group can belong . Each functional group can belong to a maximum of 4 different scenarios . • Bus line: equipment used to carry the electrical or electromagnetic signals associated with the messages be- tween the system devices .
  • Page 14 Basic concepts From the moment the groups are created, the control unit has no role in their operation; the devices and related functional groups are “connected” to each other and do not require any intervention by the control unit (the control unit is still needed, however, for managing editing functions, HVAC automation and automation programmes) .

  • Page 18 Installation topology • Essential requirements: • the distance between two power supplies must never be less than 40 m; • the load must be well distributed between the two power supplies; • the two power supplies should be placed at the ends of the one of the circuits of the system that has the largest number of devices or branches . In any case the optimal configuration has the power supplies set as far apart as possible; this has a positive effect also on the minimum voltage on the bus . 3.1.4 Length of the BUS line.

  • Page 22: Initial Switch-On

    Main configurations • It is possible to quickly scroll through the elements of a list with a flick. The initial scrolling speed is slow enough so as to allow reading the words; if you want to increase the speed it is necessary to subsequently flick while scrolling. Further flicks keep the scrolling active recommencing at top speed. • During navigation, arrows pointing left or right identify the possibility of making a flick or horizontal drag. • The sensitive area for flicking and dragging is equivalent to all the display of the control unit and acts on the ele- ment that has the active focus on the page . • Being a touch screen display, it is advised to use a fingertip with a light pressure that however is more than just skimming over it; performance increases if you press with a fingertip . • It is permissible to use a specific stylus for a touchscreen; whereas it is recommended not to use any sharp object such as a pen, screwdriver, electric cable, etc., to avoid damaging the display .

The timer program is then set with operations starting at 20:00 and ending at 20:40. The “start watering” command will be sent to the relay for area 1, and the “stop watering” command will be sent automatically after 15 minutes. The “start watering” command will be sent to the relay for area 2 after the first 15 minutes of watering, and the “stop watering” command will be sent automatically after 15 minutes. • Inputs: • Input from moisture sensor through a command interface (Eikon 20515, Idea 16955; Plana 14515). Create a group that contains the command interface to be used as Input IN1 of the watering program. The command interface will send an ON message if watering is required or an OFF message if the level of moisture in the soil means that watering is not required. Set the interface to “normal” or “inverted” operation, depending on the specifications of the moisture sensor (NO or NC). • On/off override input from a push-button (for example Eikon 20521, Idea 16961; Plana 14521). This device must be used only if you want to be able to manually force or inhibit watering; forcing is possible only if the time program is valid. Add the device to a group and associate it with Input IN2 of the watering program; select the operating mode as an ON/OFF rocker switch. Set the Input Logic selecting AND so that watering is done only if both inputs are ON (enable signal from the moisture sensor and from the button); or OR so that watering is done if at least one of the two inputs is ON (enable signal from the moisture sensor or from the button). With the condition of AND it is...
  • Page 86 Programming events Note. For the required functionality, the moisture sensor must be placed in an area not affected by the watering, so that the water itself does not cause the sensor to react. Warning! When first installed, the attachment interface must be made to react at least once, in order to indicate the status to the control unit.

Sizing the system The two main rules to observe for sizing the system correctly are the following: • observe the maximum length of the connection cables between the devices (see following paragraph); • correct sizing of the power supply sources according to the size of the system you intend to make; it is funda- mental to permit an adequate operating time (24 h) in the event of a 230 V~ mains power failure .

The card must be completed carefully following the instructions it gives and taking account of the following: The CEI 79-2 standard, for intrusion detection alarm systems, requires a minimum operating time of 24 h in the event of a power failure (the operating time is 8 h if there is a communicator) .

General characteristics of the system The By-me speaker system enables creating systems able to transmit up to 4 audio sources in different rooms at the same time with high signal quality (CD quality) . Thanks to the various system devices, integration with all the existing By-me controls and the range of coordinated speakers, it is possible to create mono or multi-channel systems completely integrated in the By-me system .
