Embodiment Construction

[0049] figure 1 The shown device comprises a central control unit 2 for controlling a motorized sun protection device 3 equipping the openings of the building. They can also be lighting devices for rooms of buildings with such openings. The central control unit can be connected to other similar central control units by means of a bus, possibly in the form of a network.

[0050] The central control unit 2 can be configured directly or by means of a programming device 4 such as a computer. In the first case, the control system has a screen and a keyboard-like interface for entering the data required for the operation of the device.

[0051] The central control unit 2 includes a computing device 21 , such as a microprocessor, and may also include a memory 22 .

[0052] On the one hand, the device receives fixed parameters during an initialization phase. These fixed parameters are of a permanent nature, at least until improvements are made in the properties of the sun protection...

Abstract

The configuration method for an installation comprising solar protection and / or lighting devices controlled by a central unit comprising a memory, computing means and a user interface, is characterized in that it comprises an iteration, over all of the solar protection and / or lighting devices, of the following steps: a parameterization step comprising the following phases: entry and recording of data defining the exposure of the opening fitted with the solar protection device with respect to the sun, entry and recording of data defining the type of device, entry and recording of data defining the maximum desired depth of penetration of the sun into the building, and / or the sought visual comfort, a step of calculation during which, for each device, coefficients for a control algorithm and / or a control algorithm, intended to control the device, are calculated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method of configuration of an installation comprising sun protection and / or lighting means controlled by a central unit comprising memory, computing means and a user interface. It also relates to a device for implementing such a method, said device comprising a sun protection and / or lighting device controlled by a central control unit comprising a memory, computing means and a user interface. [0002] Control devices for controlling a number of different types of appliances are known in the prior art. Background technique [0003] A device for automating installations in buildings is known from US Pat. No. 4,567,557. It is organized in a centralized manner and controls a variety of different devices (air conditioning, alarms, lighting) in response to the receipt of data from the detectors. A connection to a computer enables programming and storing in memory a group of user behaviors according to which the device will functi...
