Description

The colour touchscreen of 

Remote control Remo KNX RF

 can be used to manu-

ally to control bus participants in the KNX system. 

Remo KNX RF

 uses the KNX

RF S standard. The possible functions are 

Switch 

Dimm

Move the drives of awnings, shutters, blinds or windows 

Change the temperature (for heating/cooling)

Change RGBW light colour

Change light colour temperature

Call and save scenes 

Operate media equipment

Indicate bus values (e.g. status, sensor values). 

The channels are set in the ETS. However, they can be individually sorted and na-
med on the display.

Functions:

Operation via the touch display 

Lithium battery, chargeable via a USB-2.0 Micro-B charger  (Charger No 
10155 as an optional accessory). Battery level status and a warning at <20% 
battery charge can be sent via the bus

32 channels, wireless standard KNX RF, S-Mode

The touch buttons can be named individually, directly on the device or in the 
ETS

The display sequence can be changed directly on the device

Setting functions on the display can be locked (and unlocked) via the 
application and the bus

Configuration is made using the KNX software ETS 5. The 

product file

 can be

downloaded from the ETS online catalogue and the Elsner Elektronik website on

www.elsner-elektronik.de

 in the “Service” menu.

If communication with wired KNX devices (KNX TP) is necessary, a media coupler
that connects KNX RF and KNX TP is needed (e.g. KNX RF LC-TP No 70701). 

ATTENTION!
Radio transmission takes place on a non-exclusive 
transmission path!

The device is not suitable for applications in the field of safety engineering, 
e.g. emergency stop, emergency call.

Moisture is harmful to the electronic components of the 
remote control. You must therefore:
• Not leave it in the rain
• Not leave it outside overnight
• Protect it from frost

1.1. Deliverables

Wireless remote control with integrated battery

USB cable 0.5 m (USB-A plug to USB-B micro plug)

1.2. Technical specifications

The product is compliant with the provisions of EC guidelines.

1.3. Notes on wireless equipment

When planning facilities with devices that communicate via radio, adequate radio
reception must be guaranteed.  The range will be limited by legal regulation and
structural circumstances. Avoid sources of interference and obstacles between re-
ceiver and transmitter, that could disturb the wireless communication. Those
would be for example:

Walls and ceilings (especially concrete and solar protection glazing).

Metal surfaces next to the wireless participants (e. g. aluminium 
construction of a conservatory).

Other wireless devices and powerful local transmitters (e.g. wireless 
headphones), which transmit on the same frequency. Please maintain a 
minimum distance of 30 cm between wireless transmitters for that reason.

1.4. General notes

The device is only to be used for the intended purpose described in this manual.
Any improper modification or failure to follow the operating instructions voids any
and all warranty and guarantee claims.

After unpacking the device, check it immediately for possible mechanical damage.
If it has been damaged in transport, inform the supplier immediately.

Elsner Elektronik is not liable for any changes in norms and standards which may
occur after publication of these operating instructions.

First use/set-up

2.1. Loading the battery, transport block

First, charge the integrated battery of the remote control with a standard commer-
cial USB charging device (USB 2.0 Micro B connector). Charging will reset the
transport block that is active on delivery. The remote control can be used only once
it is connected to the power supply via the charging cable.

If necessary, the transport block can be reactivated within the 

System

 menu (see

manual, chapter 

System

).

The charge level of the battery and a warning if the level is under 20% can be sent
via the bus. Battery charge level and low-battery warning (bus notification). See
manual, System chapter.

The battery of the device cannot be removed or replaced. When disposing of the
device, observe the guidelines for disposing of devices with an integrated battery.

2.2. Protective film

Remove the protective film from the display.

2.3. Set-up procedure 

1. Required: Configuration of the channels in the ETS (version 5 and later). 

See manual, chapter 

Setting the channels in the ETS

.

2. Required: Programming the device

See manual, chapter 

Programming the remote control

.

3. Optional: Change the names and the channel sequence in the 

wireless channel 

configuration

 menu.

See manual, chapter 

Wireless channel configuration

.

3.

Using the remote control

3.1. Automatic switch-off

The display of the remote control switches on when the device is moved (e.g. if the
remote control is picked up) and switches off again after several seconds to save
energy. The time until switch-off can be set in the 

Display

 menu (see Chapter “Dis-

play” auf Seite 1).

3.2. Display

The display shows all channels one after another. The sequence can be changed
in the 

Wireless channel configuration > Change channel order

 menu (see manual,

Chapter 

Change channel order

). Keep in mind that access to these setting menus

can be locked. Locking/unlocking can be done via the ETS application or the bus
(communication object).

If more than five drives/devices are taught, the display uses several pages to show
them. Use the 

Up/down

 arrow buttons to change page.

3.3. Operating drives and devices

3.3.1. Control media

e.g. music, film

The operating options available depend on the selection in the ETS. The following
functions are available:

3.3.2. Moving drives (Up/Down)

Shutter, blind, awning or window

‘Buttons’ and ‘sliders’ can be activated as operating interfaces in the ETS.  If mul-
tiple interfaces are active, you can switch between the views using the right area
of the bar (side symbol  ). 

Buttons:

Tap

 on the 

up or down arrow 

to position the drive. 

The reaction of the buttons to the short tap/longer holding, as well as the display
of the position, depends on the settings in the ETS.

The position of the drive is shown in the button, left of the symbol, if the ‘Feedback’
setting was activated in the ETS. With shutters, the slat position can also be di-
splayed (right side of the symbol).

Sliders:

Shift the point on the line to position the drive.

 If ‘feedback’ is activated in

the ETS, then the current curtain height will be displayed in %, and the position of
the point on the line will correspond to the current curtain position as soon as feed-
back is received.

In case of shutters, a second slider can be activated in the ETS for the slat position
( ).
