Window

The app “windows” lets you operate and configure all windows in your system. You also have pre-defined central functions such as “open all windows” and “close all windows”.

The windows app is located under “all apps”.

Window Settings

You can configure general settings for all windows in the window settings area located under “all apps” – “settings”.

Notifications of open windows and rain/wind
If you wish to receive a notification if a window is open and it is raining or is windy, then you must activate this option.

The item “open windows” shows you a list of all open windows. The button “update” reloads the list of all open windows.

Types Of Window

You have the possibility of integrating two types of window into your system, by window contacts or electric windows.

If you have simply just one window contact connected to a digital input, then you must create a “window contact”. However, if you have an electric window that you wish to integrate into your system, then you must create an “electric window”. Electrical windows are connected to blind modules, since they work according to the same principle.

Window Contact

Create

To create a window contact, open the window app under “all apps” and select “create window contact”. This opens the operator panel and the newly created window contact. It is important to first give the contact a name and optionally the location of the window.

Configuration

Select the digital input the window contact is connected to in the item “digital input”.

The object panel for this window contact will display whether this window is open or closed. If “open” and “closed” are reversed, i.e. the object panel shows a window to be open although it is actually closed, then activate the option “invert” in the operator panel.

You can de-activate notifications for wind and rain in the tem “notifications”.

Using With A Scene

A scene lets you react to the opening and closing of a window by selecting the triggers “has been opened” or “has been closed” in the “IF…” statement and then selecting what should happen in the “THEN ..” statement.

Electric Window

Create

To create an electric window, open the app “shading” and select the blind the window is connected to. Navigate to the parameter panel and select the “type” “window”.

Operation

You can operate an electric window either via the object panel using the arrows on the left-hand side or via the operator panel using the buttons and the slider.

Adjust Opening Times

If you know exactly how long your window takes to open and close, then enter the times directly into the fields “closing time” and “opening time”, then click on the button “use values and run reference”.

If you do not know the times, simply use the wizard to determine the opening and closing times. Follow the wizard’s instructions and the times will be automatically entered and a reference activity carried out.

Configuration

Type
If you want to convert this electric window back into a blind, then you can easily do this by selecting the type “blind”.

Except from universal scene
A universal scene “open all windows”, for example, would open all windows. However, if you wish a window to be excepted from this universal scene, then activate this option.

Lock window
This option lets you lock a window, i.e. the position cannot be changed, neither via the visualization nor via a button.

Deactivate notifications
If you do not wish to receive notifications for this window, then activate this option.

Reserve (hide in visualization)
“Reserve” lets you hide unused channels. You can unhide them via the app “hardware” and the corresponding module.

Couple With

If you want two windows to always have the same position, this can be done by coupling them. Simply select the button “select” in the item “couple with” and choose the window you wish to couple this window with.

Using With A Scene

A scene lets you react to the opening and closing of a window in that you select “has been opened” or “has been closed” in the “IF” statement and then select what should happen as a consequence in the “THEN …” statement.

You can also select the actions “go to position” (go to a window position you have defined), “open” and “close” in the “THEN” statement of a scene.
