SET SHADING
The SET SHADING mode will determine the total number of shade opening stages, the system timing for the
shade system, the solar level differential, and a maximum closed position for the shade system. The actual total
opening time for the shade system itself is entered here, and information as to a safety delay that may be present
in the actual shade control panel being used is also entered here. The heat retention feature of the shade system
can be programmed in this mode. You may also program the shade system to automatically back off if a roof vent
is active to allow increased airflow.
1. Enter the SET SHADING mode.
2. Use the PRIOR-NEXT switch to advance to the desired item to set.
3. Use the VALUE switch to toggle between desired choices that the system has internally provided.
Close Shade 1
in (4) Positions
Set the desired number of stages here for the shade system. If you are only using one output (fully cover) to close
your shade system in only one position, you may select “1 Pos, 1 output”.
Shade 1
Delay (5 Min.)
This will be the time delay that the system must see in order to move the shade system covered or uncovered.
This will be the amount of time that the solar level must maintain in order to cause movement.
Shade 1
Diff. (40) K-LUX
This is the differential of the shading system. This is the amount of solar light that is necessary to start opening
the shade system back up when the solar level decreases.
Shade 1
Max (100%) Closed
Use this setting if it is desired not to have the shade system close to 100% at any time. Use this if the shade
materials do not allow air passage and it is desired to always leave the shade system slightly open.
Shade 1
Close Time 3:00
Enter the actual time that it takes the shade system to go from a fully open position, to a fully closed position. This
is critical as the computer will use this time to determine the shade position.
Shade 1
Safety Delay (5) Sec
If your shade control system is equipped with a time delay relay that protects the vent against false reversals, enter
the number of seconds here. If you are in doubt whether your system has a time delay, simply manually energize
the shade system. If the shade system starts to move immediately, there most likely is no time delay protection.
You may choose NONE as one of the choices.
Shade 1
Heat Ret 1 (Disabled)
The shade system operation offers a heat retention feature. It is possible to use the shade system as an energy
curtain. If you choose to ENABLE this, you may then select the following choices:
1. Activate the Heat Retention Feature by a mode
of operation (EVE, NGT, etc.)
2. Activate the Heat Retention Feature if a sensor
is below or above a particular setting.
You may cancel the heat retention feature based also on the above criteria.
(There are two separate heat retention programs for the shade system)
