Abstract
A method and computer program product controls the water supply in a sanitary installation having a cold water supply line and a hot water supply line, a valve battery, which is connected to a power supply, and a sensor unit, connected to the power supply. At least one proximity sensor outputs an action signal to an electronic controller when a person at least partially penetrates into the detection area. A timeslot is assigned to every action signal and, after at least one further action signal, which is triggered within the timeslot through repeated penetration of a person into the detection area, the controller outputs a command which causes the valve battery to change the temperature and/or the flow value of the water supply to the sanitary installation in relation to the number of action signals triggered, and after expiration of the last timeslot, to release the water supply into the sanitary installation.
