53ABR8 - Multifunction actuator - 10 A resistive - 8 channels - AVEbus - 6 mod. DIN
The 53ABR8 is an AVEbus multifunction actuator with 8 potential-free contact relays with a capacity of 10 A 250 VAC, divided into four sub-devices, each with two freely-programmable relays to manage two lights
(or stairway lights) and/or a shutter, even with sunshade slat orientation. Outputs can be forced manually using the front control buttons fit with status LEDs; installation on DIN guide (60715 TH35) and occupying 6 x
17.5 mm modules.

• LED lamp: 100 W 230 Vac;
• electronic transformers: 4 A 230 Vac;
• motors (cosφ 0.6): 4 A 230 Vac.
Installation procedures
• The 8 relay outputs are separated by a 250 VAC basic insulation and not by double insulation; therefore, do not, for example, connect a SELV circuit to an output adjacent to another one hooked up to the
230 VAC power supply.
• Upstream, all relay output supply circuits must be protected against overcurrents by a device or fuse with rated breaking capacity of 1500 A or by a type C circuit breaker, with rated current that does not
exceed 16 A.
Note: The rated load and its protection are given assuming that all relays run at maximum load. The maximum capacity of each relay is 10 A; however, safe device connection requires a maximum of two
non-contiguous relays be used for this capacity. This, in turn, requires that the remaining relays be downgraded to 8 A.
Manual operation
Pressing the button for a given relay causes that relay to switch manually and this is indicated as the pertinent LED goes on. In "Light" mode, it is equivalent to forcing the output into manual mode in which
commands from the bus are ignored until automatic operation is restored by either pressing AUTO or rebooting the device. In shutter mode, forcing remains in effect for as long as the button is pressed.
Operation
The device is divided into four sub-devices consisting of relay A and relay B: 1 A/B, 2 A/B, 3 A/B e 4 A/B. Each of these sub-devices can serve as actuator for Light or Stairway Light, Shutter or Shutter with
sunshade slat orientation. In Light mode, the two relays are equivalent to two separate logic channels: Ch.xA and Ch.xB; instead, in shutter mode, the two relays belong to the same logic channel Ch.x A/B, where
A is the up contact and B the down contact (with interlock).
For each of the four relay groups, the operating mode is selected from the front of the device: after pressing PRG (to activate configuration mode), pressing button A sets the pertinent relay group to Light mode,
while pressing button B sets it to Shutter mode. Light / Stairway Light or Shutter / Shutter with sunshade slat orientation are chosen through configuration from AVE Cloud App - EasyConfig or SFW-BSA.
Output performance varies depending on configuration, as shown below:
• Lighting mode
This operation is divided into three further modes: Light, Flashing and Stairway Light. Mode selection is linked to the selection of Parameter 1, which if configured with Delay on Run and Stop, Delay on Run
only or Delay on Stop only, enables typical operation of a given light. If configured with Enable Flashing, it enables intermittent flashing. If configured with Stairway Light, it enables the timed operation typical
of a stairway light. The modes described above use the timings identified by the Function or by Parameter 3 (for Stairway Light mode only).
The output operation is described below:
Parameter 1
Description of output operation
Delay on Run and
When the Light ON or OFF command is received, the output is switched after the delay identified by the Function;
Stop
Delay on Run only
When the Light ON command is received, the output is switched after the delay identified by the Function;
Delay on Stop only
When the Light OFF command is received, the output is switched after the delay identified by the Function;
When the Light ON command is received, the output is switched cyclically applying the delay identified by the Function, continuing until the Light OFF command is received;
Flashing
When the Light ON command is received, the output switches to ON and switches to OFF automatically after the delay identified by Parameter 3. If a new Light ON command is received
Stairway Light
during the course of the delay time, the timer restarts.
