Overview Block Shading



Block function block for the control element Block Shading, the control element must be linked with this function block. See Block Presence and Presence General.

The starting point for shading is the calculated sun position. Once it is reached, the shading moves to the on position. In addition, brightness and temperature can also be taken into account. The shading then moves to the on position when all conditions are met, and to the off position when the conditions are no longer met.


Inputs

HE
Brightness
Brightness (optional)
TM
Temperature
Room temperature (optional)
SP Lock Optional. Lock: not equal to 0 locks, 0 releases. While locked, the shading does not move; what happens when the lock is set is defined by the parameter Lock action. Not connected: never locked.

Outputs

ST
Status
Status output for display on the control element.

The value is bit-coded:

Bit 0 = Status Active
Bit 1 = Status Locked
Bit 2 = Status Shading active
Bit 3 = Status Sun position reached
Bit 4 = Status Brightness limit reached
Bit 5 = Status Temperature limit reached
SH
Sun height curr.
Calculated sun height (elevation)
SW Sun angle curr. Calculated sun angle (azimuth)
H1-X
Height
Setpoint height 1
L1-X
Slat
Setpoint slat 1

Parameters

Number of outputs
Number of roller shutters
Longitude
Longitude in decimal degrees for calculating the sun position
Latitude
Latitude in decimal degrees for calculating the sun position
Action on inactive What happens when the shading is switched from Active to Inactive in the control element. No action (default): the blinds stay where they are. Move to position off: the blinds move once to the position for the end of shading (Inactive) – not while the lock is set.
Lock action What happens when the lock is set (change at the input Lock from 0 to not equal to 0). No action (default): the blinds stay where they are. Move to position off: the blinds move once to the position for the end of shading (Inactive).
