Zencontrol blind controller channels can be configured in the relay view.
The parameters are represented in a DALI relay style, but in this particular case, the values are not relating to actual switching thresholds.
Up Switch ON threshold -> the time in seconds that the blind takes to go from the bottom to top.
Up Switch OFF threshold -> the time in seconds that the blind takes to go from top to bottom.
Advanced settings (Motor Safety Thresholds)
Down Switch On Threshold-> Motor Overheat Safety time (in seconds, default 180). Amount of time the motor can run before the controller will pause operating the motor to avoid overheating.
Down Switch OFF threshold -> bleed rate (default 10). The amount of time it takes for the blind controller to remove a second of operation from contributing to the overheat protection safety time. IE, at default 10, if you run the blind for 30 seconds, it will take 300 seconds of non operation for that time to be no longer counted towards exceeding the safety time.
Example:
At bleed rate 10 with a safety time of 180 seconds, you can operate the blind for 180 seconds and then hit the motor overheat limit time, at which point the blind controller will lock out operation of the blind and it will take 180 * 10 (30 minutes) before you can run the blind for a full further 180 seconds. If you instead wait 15 minutes, the current safety time would still have 90 seconds counted, so you would be able to run for 90 seconds before again hitting the 180 second threshold. You gain the motor operation time back at the bleed rate.
