Figure 14: Example of the operation concept of the Rotary knob function "Switching"
(here: turning clockwise = ON / turning anticlockwise = OFF)
The rotary sensor differentiates between different operations (e.g. switching on, afterwards
switching off) based upon the time that the rotary knob stands still after a completed operation.
The "Time for standstill after each movement" is configured in the ETS and should not be
selected too short in order to avoid unintended switching operations - particularly during fast
operations. If the device detects additional operations immediately after a rotary movement
(time not yet elapsed), it then ignores the continuing movement of the rotary knob. The time for
standstill detection is retriggered for each rotary knob movement.
i
If the direction of rotation changes without interruption during an operation, the rotary knob
does not transmit any further telegram. The device evaluates this operation as a wrong
operation.

i
The rotation angle (number of notches during a rotary movement) and the speed of rotation
have no significance for the function "Switching". During a new operation, a telegram is
already transmitted to the bus after the first notch (minimum rotation angle).
