Consistent animeo IP Features

• Use sun-tracking from weather stations to achieve dynamic façade control.
• Accurate system control using time schedules based on the astronomical time clock.
• Process real-time weather data from intelligent weather stations.

Solar Entrance Depth Management 

• During active sun-tracking periods, animeo IP’s Solar Entrance Depth Management feature will adjust and maintain the solar shade height to limit the distance that sunlight enters the space. This protects furnishings, maximizes daylight availability, and minimizes glare on work surfaces and computer screens.

Control Versatility 

• Programmable wall-mounted keypads, wireless controls, and virtual keypads provide occupants control over nearby window coverings. animeo IP can override manual occupant commands during specific time periods (ex: east façade from 8 AM - 12 PM) to keep the building running as efficiently as possible, providing just the right balance of manual and automated control.

Compatibility 

• animeo IP is compatible with existing SDN installations, at any point in system design, as well as wind, sun, and weather sensors, in-wall keypads, and wireless sensors, and third-party building management systems.

Streamlined Commissioning Process 

• Auto-discovery of motors and switches expedites installation while drag-and-drop configuration simplifies commissioning.

Sensor Offering

• A variety of Somfy weather sensors are compatible with animeo IP, including rain, wind, sun, and temperature sensors. Sensor configuration and setup are easy using animeo IP’s intuitive user interface.
