Wisotronic dialog 2/3-channel Control Unit 

EWFS ® 

1. General 

With the Wisotronic dialog you now own a multifunctional sun protection control 

unit which can control various sun protection products (slat products, cloth 

products, roller shutters, window drives, etc.) intelligently in accordance with the 

respective weather conditions. The Wisotronic dialog is available in 2 basic 

variants: 

® 2-channel module 

® 3-channel module 

The control panel and power unit can be mounted separately and only have to be 

connected by means of a 4-wire line. Drives, sensors, lock switches, and 

pushbuttons are connected to the power unit. Various modules of the power unit 

are available to suit the respective control panel: 

® As a REG / DIN rail-mounted device (REG, 12 modular spacings) 

® In a flush-type housing 

® In a surface-type housing 

You can either operate your sun protection products manually or leave the 

operation completely to the automatic control products. The Wisotronic dialog 

protects your sun protection against harmful weather influences and offers extensive 

comfort and safety functions. The Wisotronic dialog can furthermore be 

operated via an EWFS radio remote control unit (1 or 8 channels), whereby the 

radio receiver is integrated in the control panel. 

The Wisotronic dialog evaluates the data for: 

® Wind, 

® Rain, 

® Brightness, 

® Internal and external temperature, 

® Relative humidity 

® Time (DCF-77 reception) 

and correspondingly controls the connected sun protection products, such as slat 

products (outside venetian blinds, internal venetian blinds), cloth products 

(awnings, pleated blinds), vertical venetian blinds, darkening units, roller shutter 

and window drives.

3. Mounting 

3.1 Procedure 

10 


CAUTION 

States of danger and malfunctions possible! 

The Wisotronic dialog and its supplementary components 

may only be operated in a built-in state or at the specified 

mounting sites. If this is not observed, malfunctions or states 

of danger at the system are possible. Any claims to warranty 

or guarantee are definitely lost. 

Carry out the following points in the specified order: 

■ First specify at which points the individual components are to be mounted. 

Use the specifications in this section and in the data sheets of the sensors to 

this purpose. 

■ Then determine which cables are required to interconnect the components. 

Use the "Wiring diagrams" section to this purpose. 

■ Lay the required cables. Do not use cables with larger cross-sections than 

specified. It is best to use conduits to lay the motor cables. 

■ Mount and wire the individual components. 

■ Check the wiring before you switch on the supply voltage of the control 

system. 

■ Then carry out commissioning. Only then is the control system ready for use. 

The steps required for commissioning are described in detail in the "User 

guide" manual. Please refer to it. 

■ Check the correct direction of movement of the sunblind by operating the "Up" 

and "Down" buttons at the control system. 

Check the correct function of the connected sensors 

■ Check the measured value display of the temperature, humidity and 

brightness for plausible values. 

■ Check whether the wind speed display changes when the wind vane is 

turned. 

■ Activate the rain control (if sensor connected) and check whether the control 

system reacts to rain (wet the sensor area with water). 

■ Then adapt the behavior of the system to the ambient conditions and for 

special requirements. Also use the "User guide" to this purpose. Chapter 9 

furthermore contains a table with all the available setting steps (parameters), 

their limits and the factory settings. 

■ If you have changed the factory settings, record the new values of the system 

in the table (Chapter 9) after you have completed all the work. 

ATTENTION 

Mount electrical devices so that they can be accessed easily!

3.2 Mounting the power unit 

3.2.1 DIN rail-mounted variant 

The power unit of the Wisotronic dialog is available in three variants: As a DIN railmounted 

variant, in a surface-type housing and in a flush-type housing. The device 

is to be mounted in a dry and easily accessible place. Under no circumstances 

may it be mounted outdoors nor may it be subjected to direct sunshine. 

ATTENTION 

TIP 

ATTENTION 

A disconnecting device is to be provided in the fixed 

installation in order to disconnect the power unit of the 

Wisotronic dialog from the supply voltage (power breaker 

conforming to EN 60335-1, Section 25.3, for example, 

miniature circuit-breaker). 

The power unit of the Wisotronic dialog has to be protected 

separately against short circuits by means of a circuit-breaker 

with a separate power cable. Any associated motor control 

units (MCU) and their consumers may not be protected 

against short circuits by means of this miniature circuitbreaker. 

Please observe the cable types recommended in the wiring 

diagrams. 

When mounted in a distribution board installation the device 

has to be mounted on a symmetrical DIN rail (35 mm to DIN 

EN 50022). 

The minimum distance between the supply terminals and 

another object has to amount to at least 10 mm at the 

DIN rail-variant. If the power unit is mounted properly in a 

surface-type housing or a flush-type housing, no minimum 

distances have to be observed between the housing and the 

surrounding objects. 

■ Clip the power unit onto the DIN rail and carry out the required connecting 

work.

3.3 "Wind/Photo/Radio clock" 

sensor 

14 


The sensor detects the wind speed (1 "Wind" sensor), the sun intensity (4 photo 

diodes) and receives the radio time message (1 radio clock receiver). 

TIP 

Only 3 photo diodes have to be connected to ensure correct 

functioning. Further information can be found in the 

corresponding terminal diagram. Mount the "Wind/Photo/ 

Radio clock" sensor using the enclosed mounting bracket. 

3 m or 10 m cables are connected fixed to the sensor. If the 

cable length is not sufficient, a branching box is required. The 

total cable length from the sensor to the central control unit 

may amount to a max. of 100 m in case of interference-proof 

laying and under use of twisted-pair cables. Further 

information can be found in the user and installation guide of 

the sensor. 

■ The sensor must be mounted upright with a maximum inclination of ±2°. 

■ The photo diodes must not be aligned to the compass directions but rather to 

the shading building facades. The ferrite antenna has to be aligned at the 

bottom of the housing to Frankfurt (Main), Germany, or in the opposite 

direction in order to ensure optimum radio clock reception. 

TIP 

Please ask your specialist dealer whether the DCF-77 radio 

signal can be recepted at your location. If the Wisotronic is 

installed outside of the Central European time zone, the 

automatic time set doesn’t work correctly. In this case make 

sure that the "DCF"-wire is not connected. 

■ Mount the sensor to be easily accessible at the highest point of the roof 

structure or of the conservatory. 

■ Do not mount the sensor sheltered from the wind because the wind 

evaluation may otherwise be impaired. 

■ Do not mount near metal objects, such as antennas, power cables, or in 

electromagnetically shielded rooms, because the radio clock reception may 

otherwise be delayed or no reception may be possible. Also observe the 

information contained in the "Sun control" chapter of your user guide. 

■ A photo diode has to be connected to the terminal "Ph1" of the Wisotronic 

dialog - otherwise the dawn/dusk control does not have any function. 

■ Photo diode 1 (figure below) controls the dawn/dusk control. The sensor must 

therefore be mounted so that this photo diode cannot be influenced during 

the night by street or garden light or other external light sources (such as 

flashlights).

3.3.1 Allocation/alignment of 

the photo diodes 

3.3.2 Radio clock reception 

The sensor may not be shaded by trees, buildings, etc. because incorrect 

functions may otherwise result during the sun evaluation (take the course of the 

sun during the day into account). 

Fig. 3-6: Plants or buildings can shade the "Photo" sensor in the course of the day 

The numbers 1 to 4 are allocated in our works to the four photo diodes, see 

Fig. 3-5. (Align photo diode 1 to the north as far as possible). The allocation of the 

photo diodes to the individual functions of the Wisotronic dialog at a later point 

becomes much easier, if you connect the photo diodes to the Wisotronic dialog in 

accordance with their numbers. Additional information can be found in the user 

and installation guide of the sensor. 

With the connected radio clock receiver the Wisotronic dialog has a precise control 

clock which sets itself automatically to the time message sent by radio. The 

transmitter is positioned in Mainflingen at Frankfurt/Main (Germany) and has a 

range of approx. 1,500 km. In many cases the antenna system still receives the 

time message at even greater distances from the transmitter. The local reception 

and weather conditions play an important role. Take into account that transmission 

gaps in valleys can cause reception gaps. 

TIP 

"Photo" sensor

Position of the sun 

changes in the course of the day 

"Photo" sensor

The radio clock receiver receives the transmitter signal via the 

built-in antenna system wherever you have a good long-wave 

reception with a portable radio. 

Once it has been set correctly via radio signal, the clocks runs with an internal real 

time clock, constantly compares the indicated time with the time message and, if 

necessary, carries out corrections, such as from summer to standard time. The 

real time clock also bridges faults and interferences through thunderstorms, 

power failures and transmission interferences. 

Buildings with metallic building claddings, interference sources in the household 

(household devices, TVs, PCs without interference suppression) have a negative 

influence on the radio clock reception. Power supply cables and metallic objects 

such as sheet metal sheathings have to be at least 0.5 m away from the sensor. If 

radio reception is not possible, a separate "Radio clock" sensor can be connected 

which can then be mounted at a better reception site. In order to ensure that 

radio clock reception works, check the radio clock reception before carrying out 

the final mounting. 



EWFS ® 

16 


Correct radio clock reception can only be proven in the Wisotronic dialog through 

the display of the current time. This happens after the carrier frequency of the 

transmitter has been received for approx. 5 minutes. During this period 00:00:00 

is displayed as the time. 

If the correct time is not displayed during commissioning after a maximum of 5 

minutes, the radio clock reception is faulty. 

■ Change the position of the reception antenna and repeat the commissioning 

process. 

As with all radio receiver systems, the radio clock receiver DCF77 can also be 

subject to certain reception restrictions and transmission faults. 

TIP 

When selecting the mounting site you must furthermore 

ensure that the sensor is subjected to the same conditions 

(wind, sun) as the sunblind to be controlled. If this is not the 

case, the measured values are falsified and your sunblind may 

not be controlled correctly.

3.4 "Photo/Radio clock" 

sensor 

3.5 "Photo" (180°) sensor 

The "Photo/Radio clock" sensor is used when a wind sensor is not needed, for 

example at an inside sun protection system. The same instructions apply for 

mounting the sensor as for the "Wind/Photo/Radio clock" sensor. However, the 

instructions applying for the wind evaluation do not have to be observed. Exact 

information can be found in the user and installation instructions of the sensor.

The "Photo" (180°) sensor is used when a wind sensor is not needed, for example 

at an inside sun protection system. The sensor allows light-dependent controlling 

of sun protection products such as internal venetian blinds, pleated blinds or 

external venetian blinds. It is mounted to an angle bracket and fastened with it on 

the facade outside. Exact information can be found in the user and installation 

instructions of the sensor.

3.6 "Rain" (capacitive) sensor In case of precipitation in the form of drizzle, rain, hail or snow the "Rain" sensor 

triggers a switching signal. The switching threshold of the device is set in our 

works to a typical value and can be adapted after commissioning by the user to 

the requirements of his sun protection and the local climatic conditions. If the 

sensor area is dry, the switching signal is canceled after an adjustable OFF delay. 

The sensor area is heated. The temperature of the sensor area is maintained 

constantly to approx. 40°C and thus prevents triggering at high humidity as well 

as icing at minus temperatures. After detection of precipitation the sensor area 

dries quickly thanks to the heating. 

Mount the sensor using the enclosed fastening material at an easily accessible 

position near your sun protection. In order to ensure optimal functioning, the 

precipitation must fall unhindered on the sensor area from all directions. The 

sensor must be cleaned quarterly. 

The holding plate attached to the sensor creates the angle required for the water 

to flow from the sensor area. This angle should not be changed by the fastening 

procedure. Exact information can be found in the corresponding user and 

installation instructions of the sensor. 

Note: A power supply unit is required to heat the sensor.

sensor -25 to +75°C 

The sensor is used to detect the outside temperature precisely and is required, 

for example, for ice monitoring. The sensor should be mounted as far as possible 

on the northern side of a building and may not be subject to direct sunshine in 

order to provide correct measured values to the control system. Exact mounting 

information can be found in the user and installation guide of the sensor.

Fastening set for pipe mounting 1003 255 

The sensor for inside temperature is used to detect the room temperature 

precisely, for example in a conservatory. The sensor should ideally be mounted in 

approx. 1 m height, in the correct position and free from air draft. The sensor may 

not be subjected to direct sunshine in order to supply correct measured values to 

the control system. Exact information can be found in the user and installation

The Wisotronic dialog recognizes automatically whether and which sensors are 

connected. The Wisotronic dialog cannot control your sun protection system 

optimally and display measured values until all the required sensors have been 

connected. 

CAUTION 

If no sensors are connected, you cannot damage anything at 

the control system. Only the current room temperature is 

then displayed. However, take into consideration that in this 

case the sun protection control system cannot operate 

correctly, so that your sunblind could be damaged! 

Only the sensors described below may be connected to the Wisotronic. 

Otherwise the approval of the manufacturer is to be obtained. 

The following sensor inputs are available: 

3CH variant: 

1 x "Temperature" (outside) 

3 x "Temperature" (inside) 

1 x "Wind"

4. Connection 

information 

ATTENTION 

TIP 

A line-side disconnecting device is to be provided in the fixed 

installation in order to disconnect the Wisotronic dialog from 

the supply voltage (power breaker conforming to EN 60335-1, 

Section 25.2, for example, miniature circuit-breaker). 

The power unit of the Wisotronic dialog must be separated 

from the supply voltage before the housing is opened! 

A screwdriver size 0 is required to tighten the sensor 

terminals. Do not use a battery-driven screwdriver! 

EN 60335-1 is to be applied when connecting the power 

supply cable. (Wire cross-section, type of conductor, additional 

securing against loosening, strain relief, wire end ferrules 

at stranded conductors, circuit-breakers). 

The voltage drop diagrams of the looped-through motor control 

units are to be observed with regard to the looping 

through of the supply voltage. 

Voltages may not be applied to the external channel button 

input and to the input of the external master switch. 

The external master switch input requires a persistent 

command (for example floating contact of a fire alarm system 

or a (repair) key-operated switch). 

CAUTION: In case of a central DOWN the safety functions 

(wind, ice, rain monitoring) remain active! 

The external +12V voltages provided by the power unit of the 

Wisotronic dialog are provided exclusively for works-own 

sensors. 

In accordance with VDE 0022 responsibility for observance of 

the utility-company or VDE regulations lies with the operator 

and the person installing. 

The lines specified in the line diagram are minimum crosssections 

designed for copper, without consideration of the 

length and the resulting voltage drops. 

If lines are laid outdoors, the corresponding VDE regulations 

are to be observed. In addition the lines must be suitable for 

outdoor use. 

The distance to the power cables must amount to at least 20 

cm. Laying parallel to live lines is to be avoided! The 

insulation voltage between the screen and conductors must 

be > 2.5 kV. The lines should be laid in one piece. 

By default commercial light-current cables, for example 

JY(St)Y, are for pushbutton, sensor and network lines. As a 

rule this is sufficient with regard to external EMC influences, 

for example in living areas at line lengths up to 50 m. Optimum 

protection against external EMC influences is, on the 

other hand, provided by high-quality lines with braided screen 

(not foil screen!) and closely twisted pair conductors. The 

longer the line, the greater the interference susceptibility! 

Therefore only lay high-quality lines at line lengths above 50 

m up to a max. of 100 m!

WARNING 

WARNING 

In case of a central UP and a central DOWN command via the 

external master switch the sunblind is moved up or down 

resp.. Please note that a switch and not a button is used to 

this purpose. In case of a central DOWN via the external 

master switch the safety functions (wind, ice and rain 

monitoring) remain active. If the sunblind is moved down for 

maintenance, repair, cleaning, etc., the complete sun 

protection system must be shut down afterwards by means 

of the line-side disconnecting device. 

Work on the 230V Power supply may only be carried out by 

qualified electrical personnel (in accordance with VDE 0100). 

The terminal covers can be loosened at the power unit in order to facilitate 

connection work: 

Loosening the terminal covers: 

Insert a suitable screwdriver 

into that recess! 

Fig. 4-1: Loosening the terminal covers at a series built-in device 

■ The terminal covers have to be mounted again after the wiring work has been 

completed!

6. Mounting the control 

panel 

6.1 Handling of the 

spring-load 

terminals of the 

control panel 

36 


The radio receiver has been integrated into the control panel. The range of radio 

control systems is limited by the statutory regulations on radio systems and by 

structures. When planning the system ensure that the radio reception is 

sufficient. This applies in particular if the transmitter and receiver are positioned in 

different rooms and the radio signal has to penetrate walls and ceilings. The control 

system should not be installed directly near metallic surfaces (steel girders, 

fire doors). 

■ Therefore check the function of the receiver before finally carrying out 

mounting. 

Powerful local transmission systems (for example, baby intercom or neighboring 

transmitters) whose transmission frequency is identical to that of the control 

system, can interfere with the reception. 

The control panel can be mounted either in a flush-mounting box or directly on the 

wall. When specifying the mounting height ensure that the display can be read 

easily (recommendation: Bottom edge of the device approx. 1.35 m above top 

edge of completed flooring). 

TIP 

A temperature sensor is integrated in the control panel. 

Therefore do not mount the control panel where influencing 

through sources of heat is to be expected (sun radiation, 

radiators, outer wall). This prevents incorrect measurements! 

Switch off the operating voltage before you mount and 

connect the control panel. Pulling off the plug-and-socket 

connections during operation can damage the device. 

■ Mount the bottom plate on a flush-mounted switch box or directly on the wall. 

Use suitable mounting material. The oblong holes allow the bottom plate to be 

aligned absolutely horizontally. 

TIP 

Ensure that the mounting surface does not have any 

unevenness. Otherwise the bottom plate could be bent out of 

shape during mounting so that the control panel cannot latch 

in correctly! 

The bus and supply lines are connected to a pluggable spring-load terminal: 

■ First remove the terminals from the control panel 

■ After the conductor has been bared (approx. 5-6 mm), press it into the 

terminal (1) until the insulation of the conductor immerses into the terminal 

and the conductor is held firmly in the terminal. (in order to undo the 

connection turn the conductor alternatively left and right and pull it out of the 

terminal (2)).

■ Switch off the supply voltage of the power unit. 

■ Connect the individual conductors in accordance with the following diagram. 

Observe the colors of the terminals.

7. Commissioning 

7.1 Automatic presetting 

7.1.1 Password 

TIP 

Before the commissioning the required sensors have to be 

connected! 

As soon as the supply voltage is activated, the Wisotronic dialog automatically 

carries out the presettings for articulated arm awnings at all the channels. This is 

the sun protection product which is most sensitive to weather influences. After 

approx. 10 seconds the current indoor temperature is display and the symbols for 

the manual operation UP / DOWN are shown in the display. The connected 

sunblind can now be moved manually to try it out. 

In order to open the service settings you must enter the password: 

■ Turn the function dial until the following display appears:

7.3 Setting the product type 

You can now set your product (slat products, cloth products, roller shutters, etc.) 

in order to adapt the Wisotronic dialog optimally to your requirements. 

Each of these products has different properties. This means that they also react 

differently to wind, require other turn times and runtimes or are perhaps 

positioned inside and therefore do not require rain and wind protection, etc.. So 

that you do not have to enter all the product-dependent setting values and limits 

whenever you set a product in the Wisotronic, Wisotronic dialog carries out this 

work for you. The required values are already stored for many products. All the 

product-dependent setting values are programmed by only pressing a button. 

Let us assume that you have connected outside venetian blinds to all the 

channels and now want to set this product type at the Wisotronic dialog. Proceed 

as follows in order to do so: 


Service 

settings 

1 2 3 0 

■ Select the desired channel of the Wisotronic (in this example Channel 1). The 

following display is shown: 

Product 

CH 1 { } 

■ Select this menu item (button {). The following display appears: 

Product 

Product type 

Fold.arm awning 

— + ¡ | } 

■ Change the product type by using the buttons — + and then press the 

button | (save). The symbol ¡ reminds you that you are carrying out the 

settings for Channel 1. If you want to exit the menu without saving the 

changes, press the }button twice consecutively. This completes the process. 

■ Quit the setting menu by pressing the } button twice. You return to the 

channel selection. 

■ Carry out the same procedure for the remaining channels. Then de-energize 

the device for approx. 5 seconds at the line-side fuse and then switch it on 

again. This blocks the access to the service settings again so that they can 

only be opened again by entering the password. 

ATTENTION 

The basic settings of the controlled products have to be 

adapted to the manufacturer specifications, if necessary! 

If you use lock switches, these have to be activated in the 

service settings as described in the next section! 



EWFS ® 

7.4 Activating the lock 

switches 

7.4.1 Checking interlocking 

42 


If you have connected windows with lock switches (for example, reed contacts) 

to the Wisotronic, you can connect these lock switches to the control system and 

evaluate them for each channel. It is thus possible to block the moving of an 

internal venetian blind if the window is not closed (prevention of damage). This 

control behavior is achieved by interlocking. If you want to evaluate the lock 

switches, proceed as follows: 

■ Change to the product settings menu as described above and select a 

channel. The following display is shown: 

Product 

Product type 

Outside V.blind 

— + ¡ | } 


Product 

lock switch 

OFF 

— + ¡ | } 

■ Change the setting by using the buttons — + until the text ON is 

displayed and then press the button | (save). The symbol ¡ reminds you 

that you are carrying out the settings for Channel 1. If you want to exit the 

menu without saving the changes, press the } button twice consecutively. 

This completes the process. 

After commissioning has been completed, check the functionality of the 

corrected lock switches: 

■ Open the lock switch (for example open the corresponding window) and go to 

the menu "Position/Cause/Manual operation". 

■ Press the "DOWN" button of the corresponding channel. If interlocking 

functions, the following screen is displayed: 

TIP 

mg 

H! T H #T 

This is only an example. The crossed-out window signals: The 

lock switch is open, so that movement of the internal 

venetian blind is blocked. 

A detailed description of the displays which are possible here 

can be found in the user guide in Sections 4.3.6 and 4.3.7!

7.6 Allocating connected 

sensors 

The sensors connected to the Wisotronic dialog now have to be allocated. In the 

process you specify which sensors are used to control the individual channels. 


Service 

settings 

1 2 3 0 

■ Select the channel to which you want to allocate a sensor - in this example 

Channel 1: Press the button 1 The following display appears: 

Product 

Channel 1 { } 

■ urn the function dial until the following display appears: 

Allocation 

sensor 

Kanal 1 { } 

■ Select this menu item (button {) The following display appears: 

Allocation 

photo sensor

— + ¡ | } 

■ By turning the function dial the sensors to be allocated can now be selected. 

This example describes the allocation of the "Photo” sensors. 

■ The symbol ¡ indicates that you are editing the allocation for Channel 1. Use 

the — + to select the "Photo 1, 2 or 3” sensor. As soon as you press the 

button | (save), Channel 1 is allocated to the selected sensor. 

■ Assign a channel to each connected sensor. 



EWFS ® 

46 


TIP 

The sensor for relative humidity cannot be allocated! 

You can assign the following sensors to any channel: 

3CH variant: 

- "Photo 1, 2, 3" sensor 

- The temperature sensor integrated in the control panel 

- "Inside 1, 2, 3" temperature sensor 

- "Outside" temperature sensor 

2CH variant: 

- "Photo 1, 2, 3" sensor 

- The temperature sensor integrated in the control panel 

- "Inside 1, 2" temperature sensor 

- "Outside" temperature sensor 

Commissioning is completed when all the sensors are allocated. 

A complete overview of all the functions of the Wisotronic dialog can be found in 

the corresponding user instructions. Please refer to them in order to adapt the 

control system optimally to your requirements.
