Features: ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ Can be used to control an electric roll-down shutter, sunblind... Switching capacity at resistive load: 16A/230VAC max. Switching capacity at inductive load: 8A/230VAC max. Suppressed relay contacts. Manual control on the module.
CONNECTION For connection between the modules, use twisted pair cable (ex. EIB 2x2x0.8mm2, UTP 8x0.51mm - CAT5 or other). Use minimum 0.5mm² cable. For long wiring (>50m) or if a lot of modules ( > 10) are connected to one wire, use 1mm² cable. Connect the 12-18Vdc (mind the polarity) and connect the bus wires (mind the polarity). Connect the roll-down shutter motor according to the drawing below.
The up and down commands will be operated through a single push button as from firmware version 0804.

USE: Remove the lid on the blind control module using a small screwdriver to modify the configuration.
Addressing: Enter a unique address (from ‘00’ to ‘FE’ except for 'B1', ‘C1’, ‘D1’, ‘E1’, ‘F1’ and ‘FF’) for each module through the ‘ADDR’ rotating switches. These addresses can be used to learn the push buttons. In case of a modification of the addresses, the UP and DOWN outputs will be disabled and all LEDs of the corresponding push buttons will be turned out. Switch-off delay: The complete rise or descent of the roll-down shutter (or blind) takes some time.
Learning Mode: Only push buttons connected to the Velbus via a push button interface or a control panel are appropriate for the procedure below. Following push buttons can be learned: up, immediate up, down and immediate down. Each command can accept up to 14 different push buttons. As from firmware version 0804 you will also be able to learn push buttons which will raise and lower the blind. The number of push buttons per command group has been narrowed down to 11. Memorize he unique address of the module.
