Commissioning and parameterization

The following operating modes are available:

● Heating / cooling control: The actuator uses two separate setpoints for heating and cool-

ing each with a range 0...100%.

● Position control: The actuator is controlled with a 0...100% position setpoint.

Operating mode “Heating / cooling control”

When using “heating / cooling control” the parameters as listed below are available. Parame­ter sets for 6-port control ball valves DN 10 and DN 20 can be selected. Details on the char­acteristic curves of these two valves can be found in the datasheet A6V10564480.

Note that the valve angle [°] moves counter-clockwise, whereas the actuator position [%]
moves clockwise. Therefore valve angle 15° is achieved by an actuator position of 84% etc.

One of the two setpoints (heating or cooling) needs to be “0%” in order for the actuator to be
able to move. Are both setpoints not equal to “0%”, the actuator doesn’t move until the
setpoint conflict is resolved.

Valve an gle and act uator posi ti on, exam ple for VWG41.20

Parameters for standard piping of heating / cooling:

Parameter VWG41.10 VWG41.20

Valve angle Actuator position Valve angle Actuator position

Max. position heating 15° 84% 15° 84%

Min. position heating 30° 67% 40° 55%

Closed position 45° 50% 45° 50%

Min. position cooling 60° 33% 50° 45%

Max. position cooling 75° 16% 75° 16%

By parameter inversion, heating and cooling are swapped:

Parameter VWG41.10 VWG41.20

Valve angle Actuator position Valve angle Actuator position

Max. position heating 15° 16% 15° 16%

Min. position heating 30° 33% 40° 45%

Closed position 45° 50% 45° 50%

Min. position cooling 60° 67% 50° 55%

Max. position cooling 75° 84% 75° 84%

The 6 port control ball valve can
be mounted as shown in the
mounting instruction
A6V10636144 (coil facing
upward) or rotated by 180° (coil
facing downward). The ETS
parameter settings remain the
same, but heating and cooling
change their sides (cf. tables
below).

Parameterization of the KNX bus integration

The following parameters are usually checked and set by the systems integrator to achieve
the right level of bus traffic generated by the actuator or to define the behavior in case of
communication interruption. Parameters in the group “advanced” can be left unchanged
unless a special configuration is required.

Parameter group “Standard”:
