Modes of operation
The following pages explain the eight selectable modes of
operation with their associated microswitch positions. They
are divided into:
Modes 1-2: Connection of installation push-buttons.
Modes 3-4: Connection of installation switches.
Modes 5-8: Lightscape operation using installation push-
buttons.
For the microswitches, position 1 is ON and position 0 is
OFF.
For example, Figure F shows microswitch position 00110 for
mode 4.

Operation
For the connection of installation push-buttons, a distinction
is made between single-rocker and double-rocker operation:
Single-rocker operation using installation push-buttons:
Connection of a push-button to a wire pair of the multifunc-
tion transmitter. The rocker of the push-button can be used
for switching on and off, or for increasing or lowering of the
brightness (Fig. G1).
Double-rocker operation using installation push-
buttons:
Connection of a dual push-button, for example, to two wire
pairs of the multifunction transmitter. One rocker serves to
switch on, increase the brightness or move up a blind; the
other one to switch off, dim the lights or to lower a blind (Fig.
G2).
Actuation Times
When installation push-buttons are connected, a distinction is made between long (> 1 s) and short
actuation (< 1 s). Accordingly, different reactions of the radio receivers are possible:
short
long
Switching actuator
Switching on/off
Switching on/off
Dimming actuator
Switching on/off
Brighter/darker
Venetian blind actuator Slat adjustment
Cont. up/down run
Important
Venetian blind operation is only possible with the double rocker element (no. 2) and in the lightscape
(nos. 5-8) modes.
The maximum transmission time is 12 s, even though another push-button connected is still being
pressed.
