Delete devices from the device list If you want to remove a device, select if possible function ”Disconnect device“ (see page 86). Defective devices may not be able to be disconnected. In this case, proceed as follows to remove the faulty device from the device list of the central apartment unit: Main menu > Commissioning > Device list > Device X > Delete device: Use function “Delete device“ only if you cannot remove the device with function ”Disconnect device“.
Programming mode If you want to assign the device address in KNX system mode (with ETS), activate programming mode via the following operating line. Main menu > Commissioning > Bus communication > Basic settings > Programming mode: Off Programming mode off (factory setting). On Addressing mode on. Clock time operation If the system should use a common time of day, one of the devices must be defined as the clock time master and the others as slaves.
In plants with consumption data acquisition, we recommend setting the clock time remote setting to "Yes" only on the caretaker's central apartment unit. This prevents changes to the due data and monthly value generation due to changes to the clock time of any other central apartment unit.. Calendar zone (holidays and special days) If several devices in the system are to use a common calendar, holiday/special day operation must be set to ”Master” on every such device, and to ”Slave” on the other devices.
Autonomous The central apartment unit DHW time switch runs autonomous. No DHW time switch data is received or sent. (Factory setting). Slave The central apartment unit uses the time switch data of the DHW time switch master. Master The central apartment unit contains the DHW time switch master and provides the time switch data to the DHW time switch slaves. When using setting “Master“, the time switch data is distributed in the DHW zone for common usage.
Setting “Refrigeration distribution zone“ is visible only when ”Yes” was selected with parameter ”2-pipe system heating/cooling“ in the basic configuration, or "Radiator/floor cooling" was selected in a room for parameter "Cooling type". Setting the refrigeration distribution zone enables the central apartment unit to respond to H/C changeover forwarded by a refrigeration source. Exit the "Commissioning" menu Press the Esc button to exit the “Commissioning” menu after commissioning.
Function settings General You must be at the expert level to enter function settings (see page 19). Change these settings only if you are fully aware of their impact. Wrong settings can impair or even disable plant operation. Buzzer volume The volume of the buzzer (piezzo loudspeaker) integrated in the central apartment unit can be adjusted to suit individual needs (0..100%).
Heating setpoint limitation Specifies the maximum permissible room temperature heating setpoint (5..35 °C) during an active setpoint limitation period. Main menu > Apartment > Settings > Heat setp limit: Factory setting 35 °C Cooling setpoint limitation Specifies the maximum permissible room temperature cooling setpoint (0..50 °C) during an active setpoint limitation period.
This way, long heating up times when changing from Economy to Precomfort or Comfort setpoint can be prevented at low outside temperatures. In the case of night setback to Economy setpoint, this function leads to outside temperature-compensated night setback. If the settings for start and end point coincide, the function is deactivated. An Economy setpoint raised through Economy increase is displayed on the central apartment unit.
Valve position cooling mode / summer operation Specifies the position to which the valve of a room is driven (0..100%) when the plant is switched to cooling mode or summer operation. The amount of cooling energy drawn by the individual rooms can thus be influenced. Rooms with high humidity levels also have a risk of condensation.
Room controller settings These settings are visible only if the user-defined heating type is set. (See page 20). P-band Xp The room controller’s P-band can be set for every room to suit individual needs.
Derivative action time Tv The room controller’s derivative action time can be set for every room. Main menu > Rooms > Room X > Room controller > Der action time Tv: For your guidance, see the default settings (factory setting 450 s): Room type Guide value Tv Radiator heating slow 450 s Radiator heating fast 540 s Floor heating slow 540 s Floor heating fast 540 s Neutral zone For rooms using 3-position actuators, the room controller’s neutral zone (0..20 K) can be set for every room.
Actuator runtime This defines the runtime of the actuator used. This is the time the actuator requires to travel from one end position to the other. The setting only acts on 3-position actuators. It has no impact on 2-position actuators and SSA955 radiator control actuators. The actuator running time (1..600 s) can be set separately for every zone valve.

Cooling curve The central apartment unit determines a flow temperature cooling setpoint for room cooling for each room group based on the cooling curve. The cooling curve determines the flow setpoint for room cooling based on the composite outside air temperature. The cooling curve in the central apartment unit depends on the room setpoints and thus requires parameterization as per the required cooling setpoints. Five curvepoints are available for each room group to set the cooling curve.
[Curvepoint 1] outside temp [Curvepoint 1] flow temp [Curvepoint 2] outside temp [Curvepoint 2] flow temp [Curvepoint 3..5] outside temp [Curvepoint 3..5] flow temp Factory setting 25 °C 20 °C 35 °C 20 °C --- (inactive) --- (inactive) If the minimum flow temperature cooling setpoints of the active curvepoints are set to the same value (factory setting), the composite outside temperature has no impact on the minimum flow temperature cooling setpoint.
Continuously In winter operation, the heat request is constantly valid. Switching If the averaged valve position falls below a certain level, the heat request is set invalid. (Factory setting). Valve position temperature request On/Off If ”Temperature request winter operation“ is set to “Switching“, the central apartment unit checks the averaged valve position of the respective room group. If the averaged valve position is above the value set for “Valve position temp request On“ (1..
Integral action time Tn You can set the primary controller’s integral action time Tn for each room group depending on demand (0..600 s). Main menu > Room groups > Room group X > Primary controller > Int action time Tn: Factory setting 60 s Ventilation Indoor air quality control The indoor air quality controller calculates a positioning signal based on the current setpoint (in accordance with the ventilation level) and the current indoor air quality.
Humidity limitation This function monitors the relative humidity of the air and compares it with the set ”Humidity limit value“. If the relative humidity exceeds the limit value, the ventilation system is switched on at the preselected stage to remain on until the humidity has dropped one switching differential below the limit value. The relative humidity level (r.h.) is displayed on the central apartment unit.
Main menu > Ventilation > Humidity limitation > Running time: Factory setting 30 min Pause time humidity limitation When the “Running time“ has elapsed, the ventilation system is switched off for the pause time set here (0..720 min) before it resumes operation. Main menu > Ventilation > Humidity limitation > Pause time: Factory setting 60 min Air humidity at 0 V/10 V Connect a humidity sensor (DC 0..10 V) to limit humidity.
Outside temperature limit value night cooling This setting defines the lowest outside temperature (0..50 °C) at which night cooling is allowed. Below this temperature level, night cooling is locked. Main menu > Ventilation > Night cooling > OT limit: Factory setting 12 °C Room outside temperature delta night cooling Set here the by how much as a minimum the outside temperature must lie below the room temperature (0..20 K) for night cooling to be switched on.
DHW (QAX913 only) Frost protection setpoint Set the DHW setpoint to be used in Protection mode. Main menu > DHW > Setpoints > Frost prot setp: Guide value 5 °C Legionella setpoint Set the setpoint the DHW storage tank should maintain during the time the legionella function is performed. Main menu > DHW > Legionella function > Legionella setpoint: Guide value 70 °C Legionella protection frequency Specify how often the legionella function should be activated. It can be performed daily or weekly.
Main menu > DHW > Legionella function > Legio prot period: Guide value 00.30 h.min DHW priority With DHW priority, preference can be given to DHW storage tank charging by reducing the amount of heat delivered to the heating circuits. Main menu > DHW > Settings > Priority: None No priority (factory setting): During DHW heating, there is no restriction with regard to the amount of heat delivered to the heating circuits.
Forced charging Normally, DHW storage tank charging is started only if the storage tank temperature drops below the switch-on point (DHW storage tank setpoint minus switching differential). Forced charging can enforce storage tank charging, even if this switch-on criterion has not been reached. Starting If forced charging is activated and the storage tank temperature lies at least 1 K below the normal setpoint, forced charging is started. Ending Forced charging is ended when the normal setpoint is reached.
System pump required 3131S59 If the system pump is controlled by a KNX TP1-compatible controller, it can be selected whether the system pump should run during DHW charging (depending on the selected type of plant). A Case A Case B B System pump required for DHW charging (system pump: Yes) System pump not required for DHW charging (syst. pump: No) Main menu > DHW > Settings > System pump: No The system pump does not need to run during DHW charging. Yes The system pump must run during DHW charging.
Switching groups (QAX913 only) Scene number The scenes defined during commissioning automatically is numbered (1..16). To prevent scene numbers from overlapping with other existing scene buttons (e.g. GAMMA wave or Hager tebis), or to provoke them, the scene numbers of the central apartment unit can be changed, if required.

Main menu > Time of day/date > Summer time start Main menu > Time of day/date > Winter time start Guide value Summer time start 25.03. Winter time start 25.10.
Texts The texts for “Plant name“, “Rooms“, “Switching groups, “Doors“, “Light status“ and “Temperatures“ and "Handheld control“ can be entered at the service level and are thus described in the operating instructions. File name A data set can be created with the ACS service tool and copied to the central apartment unit.
Heat request 0..10 V To be able to transmit a temperature request (for space heating and DHW) to a heat demand controller by means of a 0..10 V signal, the temperature setpoint at 0 V and 10 V must be predefined for the central apartment unit. The values in between are interpolated in a linear way. Temperature requests below the selected temperature request threshold are not forwarded to the heat demand controller (0 V).
Refrigeration request 0..10 V To be able to transmit a temperature request (for room cooling) to a refrigeration request controller by means of a 0..10 V signal, the temperature setpoint at 0 V and 10 V must be predefined for the central apartment unit. The values in between are interpolated in a linear way. Temperature requests above the selected temperature request threshold are not forwarded to the heat demand controller (0 V).
