KNX Motor Controls

The sophisticated and robust motor controller is designed for façade shading products such as venetian blinds, rolling shutters, awnings and façade awnings. It incorporates all essential features for reliable and efficient operation. (The elaborate and robust motor control is used for shading with façade products like venetian blinds, rolling shutters, awnings and façade awnings and boasts all the necessary features to do so.)

Thanks to intelligent limit-of-travel detection and automatic travel time measurement, the system moves precisely into the desired shading position. This ensures rooms are shaded only for as long as necessary, maximising daylight utilisation. (Thanks to sophisticated end position detection, the system is moved into the shading position and the room is only in shade for a short period of time.)

By continuously measuring and analysing the motor’s operating time, the system adjusts to changes such as product aging and temperature variations, ensuring long-term precision. (Measuring and analyzing the operating time enables the façade product to be moved into the exact position. The aging process and fluctuations in temperature are thereby automatically taken into account.)

The automatic solar tracking feature offers four preset modes – privacy, shading below, shading above and transparency. This ensures optimal daylight control, thermal comfort and glare protection in both work and living environments. (The automatic solar tracking control, which features 4 preset operating positions – privacy, shading below, shading above and transparency –, offers a high level of comfort in the workplace and at home.)

A “limited operation” mode ensures protection against wind, frost and other environmental influences. Even during adverse conditions, the product can be operated within a safe, predefined range. (“Limited operation” also guarantees optimum product protection if it’s windy or frosty. The façade product can still be operated in a reduced, secure area.)

Standard pushbuttons and control lines can be directly connected to the binary inputs of the device. These inputs control the motor operation and can also transmit commands to the KNX bus system for further automation tasks. (Standard pushbuttons or control cables can be directly connected to the binary inputs on the device. The connection input statuses affect the motors or they can be sent on the BUS as KNX products.)
