There is a QuickCopy PC Soware written for the QuickCopy. It is a user-friendly soware which
enables copying of device settings to additional devices (as with the QuickCopy device), as well as
parameter settings of the Chronis / Soliris Smoove & Smoove UNO io device.
On the main display of the Smoove device, "Copy settings" appears with the following options:
-Device to QuickCopy: the settings from plugged-in Smoove
device are copied to the QuickCopy storage (see chapter "Copy
Smoove device to QuickCopy").
-QuickCopy to device: the other way around, the settings from
a QuickCopy storage are copied to the plugged-in Smoove
device (see chapter "Copy QuickCopy to device").

LOCAL FILES DATA /
SAVE ON PC
Type of Device
When the Chronis / Soliris Smoove or Smoove UNO io device is plugged-in, the controlled device type
is shown in the upper le area of the display (example: Chronis Smoove UNO S).
Storage locations
The available storage locations of the QuickCopy device are displayed. There are 10 locations for
Chronis / Soliris Smoove versions. For Smoove UNO io, there is a separate storage location.
Checking availability of the storage location
In the factory state, the storage locations are not assigned with names and "---" is displayed. However,
this does not mean that there are no storage locations with data already stored. For this reason, name
the occupied storage locations (right mouse click). The name is then simultaneously transferred to
the QuickCopy device.
When the 10 storage locations are occupied and are insufficient, it is possible to assign additional
storage locations in the PC. However, these are only saved locally in the PC as .xml files.
1. In "Local files", le click on the sheet symbol to assign a
new file.
2. Click on the disk symbol to save the file.
> A confirmation of the saving process appears.
The data is saved in the "Database" sub-directory. This folder can be found at the same place where
the .exe data is located. Up to 100 files can be stored directly in this directory. If you have more files,
we recommend moving these to an additional directory, e.g. "Construction project". Doing this means
that the data will not be displayed when the QuickCopy Soware is started.
5.2. Copy function of the soware
The settings of a device can be copied quickly and easily to another device. In the QuickCopy device,
there are 10 storage locations available for Chronis / Soliris Smoove. For the Smoove UNO io, there
is one location available.
Copy procedure
The settings at a storage location, on the plugged-in device or data stored in a PC, can be copied
easily to another position (device, QuickCopy storage location or PC file).
1. Move the mouse cursor on the copy field.
2. Click the le mouse button.
3. Keep the le mouse button pressed and move the mouse cursor to a new position.
> If this position already contains configuration data, you are asked whether you really wish to
overwrite the current data.
Note: Pay special attention when you are trying to copy between different device types. Aer the copy
procedure, we recommend checking the individual parameter settings. Some copy procedures are
blocked automatically. You can only transfer a plugged-in device to a device with the corresponding
configurations.
In the PC soware, you can match the settings from a plugged-in device to a storage location or to
PC-assigned data.
Opening Settings menu
• Le click the mouse on the field of the device which is plugged in
(e.g. Chronis Smoove Uno S).
> A settings window appears.
• With the settings of the plugged-in Smoove device, the name of the Chronis / Soliris Smoove or
Smoove UNO io device appears in upper le area. You cannot change the type of product as it is
specific to the device.
• With storage spaces and PC data you can change the product type.
Example: Non changeable type of device.
Example: Changeable type of device.
Parameter settings
Depending on the Smoove device, different parameter settings appear. These are the same parameters
that are set directly on the Smoove device (except with Chronis Smoove IB+ and Soliris Smoove IB+:
here there are additional possibilities, as opposed to the device settings (see chapter "Defining zones with IB+ versions")).
Note: For a detailed explanation of the function and parameter of the Smoove device, refer to the
operating instructions of the corresponding device.
• Le click the mouse on a parameter to set it.
> A support window appears automatically with the parameters and functions explanations
("Tooltip").
Note: As soon as a parameter is set, it is immediately saved and can no longer be set back. For this
reason, save the original setting in a free storage location, or copy it in a PC file and then proceed with
changing.
This setting can be done only with the QuickCopy PC Soware.
With Chronis Smoove IB+ and Soliris Smoove IB+, it is possible to define up to 3 different zones. Each
zone for the timer function is settable individually. You can also decide for each zone whether to
activate the Sun, Wind, or Rain Function. For example: the living room and the bedroom should both
have different cycle times. For this, the IB+ device requires 2 zones.
Note:
• In the QuickCopy PC Soware, the number of zones is defined and the corresponding parameters are set. Following this procedure, the Smoove devices are not yet assigned to the corresponding zones. There is a further procedure to assign zones. As soon as the Soliris Smoove
IB+ or Chronis Smoove IB+ is plugged into the wall adaptor again and the Smoove devices
are connected, this procedure can be carried out. Refer to the operating instructions of Soliris
Smoove IB+ and Chronis Smoove IB+.
• The different zones are not designed to control different types of end products (Venetian blinds,
roller shutters, awnings). If you want to do this, you must use different Chronis Smoove IB+ or
Soliris Smoove IB+ devices. You can also apply another product, e.g. Somfy animeo IB+ TouchBuco. With this option, you can even build 4 to 8 zones per central controlling.
Defining the number of zones
1. Open the settings window of a Smoove IB+ device.
2. Under "Zones", select the number of zones (example:
Soliris Smoove IB+ with 2 zones).
Setting a zone individually
Under "Prog. timer", you can set each zone individually.
Instead of 4 cycle times, you now have 8 (2-zone
operation) or 12 (3-zone operation).
Under "Sun, Wind, Rain", you can decide which zone
should carry out which function.
Example: Zone 1 and 2 are both assigned with the
Sun Function. The Wind and Rain Functions are only
assigned to zone 1.
