4.4 Description of functions

The control of heating and cooling systems is illustrated in Fig. 1. The object of such control is the adjustment of the actual temperature to the desired set-point temperature in a room. The set-point temperature for the room can be set by means of a free@home room temperature controller. It also measures the actual temperature. Depending on the difference between both temperatures (control deviation) the room temperature controller creates a control value that is transmitted to the heating actuator (HA-M-0.6.1 or HA-M-0.12.1). The heating actuator, in dependence of the control value, controls one or several thermal actuating drives which set the valves in the heating or cooling circuit.

4.4.1 Heating actuator, heating valves

This function is to be selected if only one heating system (e.g. floor heating, heaters, etc.) is to be controlled (no cooling). The channel of the heating actuator, which sets the valve in the pre-run of the heating circuit, is to be linked with the room temperature controller in menu "Linking" in the main menu of the System Access Point. The thermal actuating drive is to be connected hardware-related to this channel. Control and setting of the valve occurs automatically as soon as the room temperature controller has been connected to the heating actuator.

4.4.2 Cooling actuator, valve for cooling

This function is to be selected if only one cooling system (e.g. cooling ceiling) is to be controlled. The channel of the heating actuator, which sets the valve in the pre-run of the cooling circuit, is to be linked with the room temperature controller in menu "Linking" in the main menu of the System Access Point. The thermal actuating drive is to be connected hardware-related to this channel. Control and position of the valve occurs automatically as soon as the room temperature controller has been connected to the heating actuator.

4.4.3 Actuator for heating and cooling, valve for heating and cooling

This function is to be selected if a heating system is used for which the same circuit, e.g. dependent on the season, is used for heating or cooling. The respective control for heating or cooling and the position of the valve occurs automatically as soon as the room temperature controller has been connected to the heating actuator. The selection of the control value for heating or cooling, for example, occurs by means of reversing a switch which is to be linked with the heating actuator via a binary input in menu "Linking" in the main menu of the System Access Point. As alternative, a binary output of the associated thermal system (if available) can be used.

Fig. 4: Valve in the pre-run of a heating/cooling circuit

4.4.4 Control of several heating or cooling circuits

The control of several heating or cooling circuits becomes necessary, for example, for the control of several heaters in a room. In this case each heater is to be equipped with a thermal actuating drive. The actuating drives are to be connected either to a single channel of the heating actuator (the maximum nominal current is to be taken into consideration) or to several channels. The channels are to be configured as "Valve for heating" in the parameter settings of the heating actuator in the System Access Point. In menu "Linking" in the main menu of the System Access Point the associated room temperature controller is to be linked with all channels to which the actuating drives have been connected. The control occurs automatically following the linking in menu "Linking".

The procedure is to be applied analogous for cooling systems with the difference that the respective channels must be configured as "Valve for cooling".

4.4.5 Controlling parallel heating and cooling circuits

If several thermal systems which have appropriate heating and cooling circuits are operated parallel to heating and cooling, a thermal actuating drive is to be used for each valve of a circuit of a system. The corresponding channels are, depending on the connected heating or cooling system, to be configured as "Valve for heating" or "Valve for cooling". In menu "Linking" in the main menu of the System Access Point the associated room temperature controller is to be linked with all channels to which the actuating drives have been connected. The controls for heating and cooling occur automatically in dependence of the difference between the set-point and actual temperature.

Example

A room has two heaters and a cooling ceiling. All three systems are equipped with their own thermal actuating drive. The thermal actuating drives are to be connected to the heating actuator and are each to be linked in menu "Linking" of the main menu of the System access Point with any three channels of the heating actuator. The two channels to which the heaters are to be connected are to be configured as "Valve for heating". The channel to which the cooling ceiling is connected is to be configured as "Valve for cooling". The three valves in turn are to be linked with the associated room temperature controller. The control and the position of the valves on the two heaters and the cooling ceiling occur automatically.

Danger

Danger to life

To prevent dangerous contact currents due to feedback from different external conductors, an all-pole deactivation is to be carried out when extending or changing the electric connection.

6.4 Dismantling

Dismantling is carried out in the reverse order.

7 Commissioning

Commissioning is always carried out via the Web-based surface of the System Access Point.

The System Access Point establishes the connection between the free@home participants and the smartphone, tablet or PC. It is used to identify and program the participants during commissioning.

Devices which are physically connected to the free@home bus, log themselves automatically into the System Access Point. They transmit information about their type and supported functions (see Table 2: Function overview, chapter 4.3).

During initial commissioning all devices are given a generic name (e.g. switch actuator 1, etc.). The user must change this name to a name practical for the system (Example: "Living room light" for an actuator in the living room.

Commissioning of the heating actuator is described in the following chapters. Here it is assumed that the basic commissioning steps of the overall system have already been carried out. General knowledge about the Web-based commissioning software of the System Access Point is assumed.
