5.5.2 Creating groups automatically
Application example, wind monitor for awnings and blinds
However, if you want the wind monitor to protect the awnings for certain wind speeds and for the wall orientation, then assign the corresponding wind class to the awnings (Chapter 5.3.9.2). You can select both the wall orientation and the wind class (1 to 6). A new group is created automatically for these awnings of the south wall, e.g. south - class 1 – 9m/s.
Now, you just need to assign the corresponding wind monitor or wind monitor output of the group.
The automatic creation of the groups takes place mostly in the building automation application in order for the different shading systems to be controlled by several wind monitors or weather stations.
 
The wind speeds must be set on the wind monitor. We recommend using the standard values of your shading system. You can find this information in the product description of your shading system.

If your wind monitor has different outputs, you can also create groups for various wind classes. For this purpose you need a wind monitor with several outputs (maximum four) and an SW‑AKM200 digitalSTROM terminal block (see also chapter 3.5.3). The outputs of the wind monitor can then be set to different wind speeds.
