Touchscreen programmieren

The Niko Home Control touchscreen offers residents a user-friendly interface to operate all functions within their Niko Home Control installation. The symbol displayed next to each action represents the current status of that action. In addition, the touchscreen provides a detailed overview of the electricity, gas and water consumption in the home, provided that these functions have been included in the installation.

Operation

The symbols on the touchscreen are used by the resident to operate the functions that you assigned while programming the installation. The resident can also use the touchscreen to request more information about the electricity, gas and water consumption in the home.

Using the touchscreen

1 Touch the touchscreen. The start screen will appear.
If you do not touch the screen within 30 s, the display will be dimmed to reduce energy consumption.
2 Touch the corresponding tab to select "control", "favourites", "energy" or "settings".

Using the "control" tab

1 Touch the "control" tab.

2 Select the function you wish to control.

Using the "energy" tab

• The installation must be fitted with an IP interface (see IP interface on page 74) and an electricity measuring module (see Electricity measuring modules on page 58) or a pulse counter (see Pulse counter on page 70) to be able to display the measuring data for gas, water and electricity.
• If you are only using a pulse counter, live data for gas, water and electricity consumption will not be available.

1 Touch the "energy" tab.

2 Select the type of measuring data you wish to display: electricity, gas or water.
3 Select the period of your choice: live, day, week, month or year.
4 Select the display mode for the period you selected: consumption or cost.

Using the "settings" tab

1 Touch the "settings" tab.

2 Do one of the following:

• Select "control" to select different symbols for the various locations.
• Select "favourites" to add or remove actions from the list of favourites.
• Select "system info" to view the system information.
• Select "alarms" to view the notes and alarms log book.

Installation

• The Niko Home Control installation must be fitted with an IP interface (see IP interface on page 74) to enable communication with the touchscreen. The touchscreen can be connected to the IP interface either directly or via the home network. Ensure that the touchscreen is on the same network as the IP interface.
• Use a twisted pair cable, such as a UTP, FTP or STP cable. Both the touchscreen and the IP interface have an RJ45 jack. You will need to mount RJ45 plugs onto the cable to be able to connect one end of the cable to the IP interface, and the other end to the touchscreen.
• The touchscreen can be supplied with power using Power over Ethernet (PoE) via the same twisted pair cable, for which you use the Niko PoE power supply (550-00501). Alternatively, you can provide a separate power supply cable, which you connect to a separate 24 Vdc power supply module in the electrical cabinet. In that case, you will need a 24 V power supply cable such as an SVV, JYSTY, TPVF or UTP cable in addition to the twisted pair cable.

Take into account the dimensions of the installation bracket and the touchscreen in the images below to determine the exact location of the touchscreen on the wall.

Horizontally, the centre of the flush-mounting box must be at a distance of at least 130 mm from other walls, doors, etc.

Touchscreen dimensions

- Mount the touchscreen:

- at eye level for optimum visibility.

- Do NOT mount the touchscreen:

- in direct sunlight.

- within the immediate vicinity of a fireplace, heater, or any other heat-generating source.

- in damp locations.

- The touchscreen itself is not suitable for flush mounting. Mount the touchscreen onto the wall using a standard flush-mounting box with a depth of at least 40 mm.

- A total of ten touchscreens, smartphone or PC applications can be used per installation.

Use a drill (with a 6 mm diameter) to drill a hole of 40 mm for each plug. If you are drilling in timber, you will not need to use the plugs, and only a drill hole of 20 mm with a 3 mm diameter will be required.

Follow the steps below to mount the touchscreen:

1 Screw the assembly plate onto the wall using the four screws and plugs supplied.

Min. 1,50m

• Mount the assembly plate in a central position on top of the flush-mounting box.
• Make sure the assembly plate is level.
• The unevenness of walls cannot exceed 2 mm.

2 Connect the green screw terminal supplied to the 24V power supply cable while observing the polarity as indicated on the back of the touchscreen.

• If you are using PoE, you do not need a separate 24V power supply cable.
• Only use the Niko PoE supply of type IEEE802.3af. This power supply provides voltage via the free pairs.
• The green screw terminal supplied (24V power supply) is suitable for a maximum copper diameter of maximum 1.5 mm ^4 .

3 Crimp an RJ45 plug onto the twisted pair cable (UTP, STP or FTP). Observe the standard colour coding for RJ45.

4 Connect the RJ45 plug and, if applicable, the 24V power supply cable, to the touchscreen.

Programming the touchscreen

• Add the touchscreen at the beginning of the project.
• The touchscreen can display a maximum of 256 actions across 100 locations.
• Several touchscreens used in one single installation cannot be programmed differently.

When you add the touchscreen to the project of the installation via the programming software, all pre-programmed actions will automatically be linked to the touchscreen.

The programming software allows you to create locations and link actions to each location. This will give you a better overview of the home. If an action is not linked to a location, the software will link the action to a virtual location. When all actions have been linked, click the touch icon to open the overview. In this overview, you can remove any actions that you do not want to be displayed on the touchscreen.

Touchscreen maintenance

Use a soft dry or slightly damp cloth to clean the touchscreen. Do not use detergents or other cleaning agents.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible cause Solution
Nothing is displayed on the screen.	Communication error	Check whether network communication is possible between the touchscreen and the IP interface.
You can’t operate the installation. Reset the touchscreen.		Use an unfolded paperclip to press the reset button. There is no need to disassemble the touchscreen.
