2.2. The touch display
Manual control, as well as setting the defaults for the automatic functions and the connected equipment, is via the control’s touch display. The button surfaces are operated
in this area by touching the display. When a button is activated, there is visual feedback
and a brief audio signal sounds.
If the push buttons shown do not match up with the touch-sensitive surfaces (you have
to press “next to the button”), the touch display can be calibrated as follows.
System > WS1 / WS1000 Settings > Settings > Calibrate touch
6.2.1. Calibrate touch
Operating the display with long fingernails will not damage the screen or the touch
function. Touching the display with very hard or pointed objects (e.g. those made from
glass, gems or metal) should be avoided as this can cause marks.
A stylus is enclosed with the WS1000 control system. It can be stored in the tray beneath the covering lid.

19 Operation and use
Use the arrow keys to scroll through the list.
2.3. Manually operate drives and devices
2.3.1. The „Manual“ menu
You can reach the menu for manual control of drives and equipment by using the button Manual:
Here you can operate all connected drives and devices directly: Use the buttons to select the name of the drive or device you want to operate. You can change the order of
the list in the System menu.
System > Installation > Channel Order
6.1. Define channel order
The selected device is marked in white. On the right-hand side you will receive status
information (e.g. on/off, open/closed, exhaust air level, error messages) and various
control options (up/down arrow keys or on/off buttons).
The Down and Up buttons are fitted with automatic time functions. The drive can be
precisely positioned with brief button presses (less than 1 second, short audio signal).
For shutters and roller blinds, only a short step-movement command is triggered. If the
button is pressed for longer than 1 second (higher audio signal: locking signal), the
drive moves independently to the end position. A brief press in the opposite direction
stops the drive.
For shades and windows, the movement position is shown in percent above the Up-/
Down buttons (for blinds, also the slat position). For radio motor control units, the po-

sition shown can deviate from the movement position set in the automatic mode by up
to 2%.
If a drive group is momentarily blocked for manual operation by a rain, wind or frost
alarm, the arrow keys will be greyed out and may not be used. The message “Rain
alarm” and/or “Wind alarm” is shown.
The frost alarm can be deactivated by pressing the corresponding button (see diagram); manual operation is then possible again. The frost block will then be first active
for this drive again when it is reactivated manually or the next time the frost alarm is
triggered.
The drive and hangings may be damaged if a firmly frozen
outdoor shading is moved!
Whether a drive or device is in automatic mode or manually operated can be recognised from the white marking on the buttons on the right and the text “Auto” next to
the name button in the list on the left. By pressing the button you can switch from one
to another.
After being operated manually the drive or device remains in manual mode. The automatic functions are thus switched off and only the rain and wind protection will be carried out. The equipment will only switch back into automatic mode when reset by hand
(“Manu” button) or through the daily automatic reset. In the Automatic menu, the automatic reset can be activated separately for each drive group and each device.
This button allows you to perform the automatic reset manually. All systems for which
an automatic reset has been set are then set to automatic mode.
2.3.2. External buttons
As well as operating the controls via the display, it is possible to connect external buttons (wall buttons) to the control unit. In the System menu the individual buttons can
be assigned to any drives or devices.

2.5. Slideshow
This function is not available with WS1 Color.
The WS1000 Color can play back digitally-stored image data as a slideshow. For this,
the image data must be saved onto an SD card and fulfil the following requirements:
• Data format Bitmap (BMP)
• Size 640 x 480 pixels
• Color intensity 24 bit or 16 bit
•No compression (RLE)
• The data must be saved in the uppermost level of the card's directory (root
directory)
The card will automatically be recognised. If image data are stored on the card, the
symbol for „play-back“ appears at the bottom right-hand side of the weather data display.
The image changes approx. every 45 seconds (for images with 24-bit color intensity).
To return to the weather data display, touch the screen or remove the SD card (briefly
press down on the card so that it pops out).

In the menu System > Automatic Settings you can make the following adjustments:
• Define automatic functions for the individual drives and devices
• Adjust general automatic settings: Twilight value, movement delays, timer,
ventilation block, night time re-cooling, frost alarm and automatic reset
In order to set the automatic functions, the basic settings must already have been
made.
6. Basic setting
Please adjust the settings for drives and devices to your individual circumstances. Only
in this way can alarm and blocking functions like rain or wind warnings help to protect
external awnings or prevent rain from coming in through the window.
3.1.1. Safety notice for automatic and alarm
functions
When it starts to rain, depending on the amount of rain and the temperature, some
time may pass before the rain is recognised by the weather station. For electrically-operated windows or sliding roofs, a closing time must also be taken into account. Moisture-sensitive objects should therefore not be placed in an area where they may be
damaged by precipitation penetrating inside. Please remember also that, for example,
when it starts to rain during a power outage, the windows will no longer close automatically, if no emergency power generator is fitted.
Please note that the rails of externally mounted blinds, awnings and shutters can ice
up. If the drive group is then moved, the shade and drives may suffer damage.
It is imperative you take care that no-one is in the movement
area of the equipment parts moved by electrical motors (danger
of crushing!).
The appropriate building regulations are to be observed.
3.1.2. Power failure, maintenance works, etc.
(restart of control)
If a power outage occurs, the control unit can no longer control the connected drives!
If the functional scope must be guaranteed even during a power cut, an emergency
power unit with a corresponding switch from network power to emergency operation
should be installed by the customer.
Settings saved in the control unit programme will be maintained even during a power
outage.

27 Automatic settings
If cleaning or maintenance work is to be carried out in the conservatory/building, the
control unit should be de-energised and secure against restart by disconnection of the
customer-installed fuse. This ensures that the connected drives cannot start.
After every re-start (e. g. return of voltage after mains failure or
manual reset) all drives and devices are in automatic mode.
3.2. Automatic settings for drive groups
and devices
3.2.1. Drives and devices without automatic
functions
Devices connected via the “Dimmer” output (e.g. lighting) have no automatic functions. They can however be operated manually via the display.
Sliding doors also have no automatic functions. They can also be operated manually
via the display. In addition, sliding doors can be fitted with a close-contact (connection
to a multifunctional input). In this way the control unit knows whether the door is open
or closed.
3.2.2. Automatic awning settings
For connected awnings or awning groups the following automatic settings can be
changed:
• Light intensity
• Direction of sun
• Height of sun
• Movement position
• Indoor sensor to be used for the awning
• Indoor temperature block
• Outdoor temperature block
• Frost alarm
• Wind alarm
• Rain alarm
• Enable/Disable automatic reset
Alarm functions
Alarm functions are used for awnings in manual and in automatic mode.
Fire alarm of a smoke detector has highest priority. All awnings are retracted and cannot be influenced either by automatic or manual.

Confirm your setting with the OK button.
For the automatic system to react, the set light intensity value must be exceeded or undercut for the duration of the delay times. This prevents constant extensions and retraction of the awning during rapid-changing light conditions. The movement delays
can be adjusted.
