NTRODUCTION
With its touch-sensitive color display, the Allure™ RS-Smart-Sense room sensor allows
immediate and easy control of each space comfort parameter (lighting, temperature,
sunblinds, and fan speed) while providing instant access to four predefined scenes.
The four different scenes are used to instantly recall your favorite settings to create the
atmosphere fitting with the desired use of the room.
The backlight intensity is automatically regulated by its embedded sensor depending on the
room ambient luminosity, which will provide you with an optimal reading comfort.
