Using your VELUX Touch

This article shows how to operate a product or group of products to a preferred position.

To operate a product or a group of products to a specific position, you need to select the product category, the product(s) to be controlled and, finally, the preferred position.
Please follow the steps described below:

On your VELUX Touch 

1. Select the product category (Skylight, Exterior sunscreening or Interior sunscreening)
   Note: Depending on the products copied to VELUX Touch, all categories might not be displayed.
2. Select the product/group to be operated by tapping the icon above the horizontal line. To control several products simultaneously, tap a combination of products and/or groups.
   Hint: Pressing the group icon for more than 5 seconds shows the individual products in the group, which can then be operated individually.
3. Select the preferred position of the product by tapping the icon below the horizontal line.
4. Tap the stop button to stop the product operation at any position other than the predefined.

Skylight control during rain: If a skylight is opened during rain, the opening is automatically restricted to the ventilation position to protect the interior. At your own risk, additional opening is possible to a maximum of 50% and for a period of 15 minutes.

Note: Some skylight types do not support the ventilation position, which is why the skylight remains closed when selecting this position.

In case it starts to rain while the skylight is open, the skylight always closes automatically.

This article shows the predefined skylight opening positions for normal operation and in case of rain.

Skylight (closed/secured ventilation/25%/50%/75%/100%)
