pushbutton. The assignment to other devices is equal to a pushbutton.
2. A ring shaped sensor area from which you can navigate through the displayed menus and
operate the device.
All parameters, data and settings are shown by the 128x64 pixel display.
2. Operation:
The sensor areas are operated by a push or a circular motion with the fingers. Metal or plastic
parts can
not be used to operate the sensor areas.
2.1 Sensor buttons:
Every pair of key (left and right side) builds a „rocker“. Equal to the pushbutton top is ON and
bottom is
OFF. The centre of the sensor area is designated by a red LED.
During a short press at the sensor key a short sound is played (only if the key sound is enabled)
and the
LED is blinking 1 time.
If you hold the key press at the sensor 2 short sounds are played and the LED is blinking 2 times.
This
indicates a long key press. As soon as you move away your finger from the sensor key now
another short sound is played but only if you had a long key press before. Again the LED is
blinking 1 time.
The RF-commands the Room Manager sends during a short or long key press are completely
identical to a 2-fold pushbutton. The only difference is to get a feeling for the key operation
because a touch sensor feels different to a mechanical key.
2.2 Sensor wheel:
You have 3 different ways for operation:
1. Short key press: Operation somewhere in the ring shaped sensor area without
circular motion, Moving away the finger in under 1 second a short key press is detected, a
short click sound is played
2. Long key press: Operation somewhere in the ring shaped sensor area without
circular motion, Moving away the finger in over 1 second a long key press is detected, a
short click sound is played, A long key press is only used when manually operating
outputs, shading,…
3. Circular motion: Operating somewhere in the ring shaped sensor area and
immediately moving the finger, as long as the finger moves in the sensor ring the circular
motion is detected. Switching the direction and slower/faster moving is possible. After
detecting a circular motion over a short angle the Room Manager plays a short click
sound. This sound repeats every time a new movement over a specific angle is detected.
Playing the click sounds gives you a confirmation for the circular movement.
IMPORTANT: The area in the centre of the ring shaped sensor is
not
designed to detect
operation!!
The sounds for both the sensor wheel and the sensor keys can be enabled or disabled by using
the menu
in the Room Manager. Also the brightness of the Key-LEDs and the background lighting of the
display can be dimmed from 0 to 100% („Miscellaneous -> Lighting“).
3. Display:
The display of the Room Manager has a size of 128x64 pixels and white background lighting that
can be dimmed. Either for active operation or standby mode.
The bottom line of the display shows time, day and date and is shown on every main page. The
same applies to the top line of the display that shows the name and the number of the page. An
arrow besides the page number shows in which direction you can scroll through the pages.
