Configuration parameters
Parameter no. 78 - Automatic Blind Calibration
The NERO-BLIND can automatically detect the start and end position of the blinds based on blind motor limit switches. To change these limit switches please refer to your motor manufacturers manual.
- Set the parameter value to 1.
- NERO-BLIND performs the calibration process, completing a full cycle - up, down and up again.
- Set the parameter value back to 0.
Available settings (Data type: 1 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 0 - Disabled
- 1 - Enable
Parameter no. 10 - Participation in all on/off
Z-wave includes a special message type to tell all devices on the network to turn on or off. This isn't always desirable so it is possible to change how the device responds to these commands.
This will not change the functionality of the All Lights quick command on the NEXUS-NERO dashboard. Refer to the quick commands customisation article to change this feature.
Available settings (data type: 2 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT) 255 - Responds to ALL ON and ALL OFF
- 0 - Doesn't respond
- 1 - Responds to ALL OFF only
- 2 - Responds to ALL ON only
Parameters no. 40 - Power reporting %
Sets the percentage change in the power consumption of the device which makes the device report back to the network controller.
Setting this parameter too low can cause your wireless mesh to become busy and cause commands to not be sent or received correctly. We recommend not setting this parameter lower than 10.
Available settings (Data type: 1 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 10 - 10%
- 0 - Power consumption reporting disabled
- 1-100 - Percentage change before reporting
Parameter no. 42 - Power reporting time
Sets the time interval in seconds which makes the device report back the power consumption to the NEXUS-NERO controller
Setting this parameter too low can cause your wireless mesh to become busy and cause commands to not be sent or received correctly. We recommend not setting this parameter lower than 300.
Available settings (Data type: 2 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 300 - 5 minutes
- 0 - Power consumption reporting disabled
- 1-32535 - Time in seconds
Parameter no. 71 - Operating mode
Sets the operating mode of the device between blind/curtain mode and venetian mode. Venetian mode will allow control of the slats in addition to opening and closing the cover.
When changing this parameter, module needs to be excluded and included again
Available settings (Data type: 1 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 0 - Blinds mode
- 1 - Venetian mode
Parameter no. 72 - Slats tilt full turn time
Applicable only if parameter 71 is set to 1 - Venetian mode.
Sets the time it takes for the device to rotate the slats 180°. If this time period is too long, the blinds will either move up or down
Available settings (Data type: 2 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 150 = 1.5s
- 0 - Tilting time disabled
- 1-32767 - Value divided by 100 in seconds, e.g., 1 = 0.01s, 32767 = 327.67s
Parameter no. 73 - Slats position after movement
Applicable only if parameter 71 is set to 1 - Venetian mode.
Sets what command source causes the slats to return to its previous position after every up/down movement.
Available settings (Data type: 1 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 1 - Commands from Z-wave, push button or when lower limit switch reached
- 0 - Commands from Z-Wave only
Parameter no. 74 - Motor moving time
Setting this value will override the automatically calibrated value from parameter 78
Sets the amount of time taken for the motor to transition from an open to closed position. First use either the push buttons or UI to measure how long it takes for this transition.
- Set to 0 then time the blinds moving to a fully closed position.
- Set to the time taken for a full transition.
Available settings (Data type: 2 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 0 - Moving time disabled
- 1-32767 - Value divided by 10 in seconds, e.g., 1 = 0.1s, 32767 = 3276.7s
Parameter no. 76 - Limit switch detection
Sets the power threshold which defines when the motor reaches a limit switch. For some motors the default value may not work correctly. After setting this value, re-run the calibration process with parameter 78.
This value should not be should not be higher than power consumption in normal operation.
Available settings (Data type: 1 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 6 = 0.6W
- 5-100 - Value divided by 10 in Watts, e.g., 5 = 0.5W, 100 = 10W
Parameter no. 85 - Motor off time delay
Sets the time delay from initial motor operation to turn off motor if no power is drawn. If there is no power consumption during the set time (motor not connected, damaged or requires longer time to start, motor at the end position), the relay will switch off.
Available settings (Data type: 1 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 30 - 3 seconds
- 0 - Automatic
- 3-50 - Value divided by 10 in seconds, e.g., 3 = 0.3 seconds, 50 = 5 seconds
Parameter no. 90 - Time delay for next motor movement
Sets the minimum delay time between successive motor movements.
Available settings (Data type: 1 Byte DEC):
- [DEFAULT] 5 = 0.5 seconds
- 1-30 - Value divided by 10 in seconds, e.g., 1 = 0.1s, 30 = 3s
Parameter no. 110 - Temperature sensor offset
Sets the offset value of actual measured temperature of the sensor which is reported back to the controller.
Available settings (Data type: 2 Byte DEC)
- [DEFAULT] 32536 - Offset 0ºC
- 1-100 - Value divided by 10 in ºC added to the measurement, e.g., 1 = 0.1°C, 100 = 10°C
- 1001-1100 - Value divided by 10 (excluding the leading 1) in ºC removed from the measurement, e.g., 1001 = -0.1°C, 1100 = -10°C
Parameter no. 120 - Temperature reporting
Sets what amount of change is required in the sensed temperature before sending a new report to the controller.
Setting this parameter too low can cause your wireless mesh to become busy and cause commands to not be sent or received correctly. We recommend not setting this parameter lower than 5.
Available settings (Data type: 1 Byte DEC)
- [DEFAULT] 5 - 0.5ºC
- 1-127 - Value divided by 10 in ºC, e.g., 1 = 0.1°C, 127 = 12.7°C
