How can you install the new version on your ventilation unit/KWL unit?

Starting with software version 1.0.19, Helios KWL units with easyControls 3.0 have full access to the functions of the easyControls cloud and are automatically updated online. For units with a lower version status or without a cloud connection, the update must be carried out manually. Please follow the steps below:

Installation via Update Tool:

With our new update tool, you have the option of installing this update, as well as all future updates, conveniently on your KWL unit. To do this, download and install the update tool on your PC via the link below. After successful installation, start the programme, select the latest update file and transfer this file to your KWL unit in just two clicks. Detailed information on the installation and update process can be found in the installation instructions. Your computer and your KWL unit must be connected to the same network for the update.

Installation via KWL-BE Touch controller

If you would like to install the new software version via the BE Touch controller, please proceed as follows: Download the latest easyControls 3.0 firmware on the Helios website www.heliosventilatoren.de/software. Save the file to an empty Micro SD card and switch off your KWL unit. Now insert the Micro SD card into the card slot on the KWL-BE Touch controller and switch on your KWL unit again. The update will now start automatically in the background. The update process can take up to 60 minutes.

New key features and optimisations at a glance

Below, you will find a detailed overview of the new features and optimizations. The screenshots illustrate these features in the internal web server and in the cloud.

1. Improved commissioning assistant

With the new software version, the commissioning assistant has been redesigned to intuitively guide users through all settings step by step. Below you will find an overview of the new features.

Import and export of commissioning files

Until now, devices had to be configured individually. With the new import/export function, parameters can now be easily transferred to other devices. This makes commissioning of multiple devices significantly faster and more efficient.

The import and export can be carried out with all devices that are connected to the same network. For convenient operation, a PC or tablet is recommended.

Note: Commissioning as well as import/export are carried out directly via the device interface on site (Home UI). They cannot be performed via the cloud.

Structured summary of all settings

At the end of the commissioning process, a structured overview of all configured settings is now displayed. This enables quick verification as well as direct navigation back to individual parameters for targeted adjustments.

PDF download of commissioning settings

With the update, a PDF download of all commissioning settings is available. This can be generated both during commissioning and during normal operation of already configured devices

2. New features in easyControls 3.0

Timed function

With the new timed function, it is now possible to define a time-limited operation profile. After the set period has expired, the device automatically returns to normal operation. The following profiles are available:

• Away
• Home
• Stand by

Optimised design

With version 1.0.25, the user interface has been improved in several areas:

• Improved and modernised user interface for better clarity
