Description

The 

KNX eTR MultiTouch Light/Sunblind push button

 has touch-sensitive but-

tons with which functions can be called up in the KNX building bus system. The
glass surface is printed with areas for setting the light and temperature. Coloured
LEDs (one white LED in the light symbol, one red and one blue LED in the thermo-
meter symbol and three white LEDs each for level indication) are integrated in these
areas and their behaviour can be adjusted. Additionally, there is an area for moving
blinds/sun shades (up/down).

A temperature sensor is integrated into 

KNX eTR MultiTouch Light/Sunblind

.

An external temperature reading can be received via the bus and processed with its
own data to create a total temperature (mixed value).

The 

KNX eTR MultiTouch Light/Sunblind

 has a PI controller for heating and co-

oling. The setpoint temperature can be changed using the "+" and "-" touch buttons.

Communication objects can be linked via AND and OR logic gates.

Functions:

Operating zone for light

 with 3 areas (switching and dimming)

Operating zone for blinds

, awnings, shutters or windows with 3 areas (up/

down with short/long distinction, driving position)

Operating zone for temperature control

 with 3 areas (warmer, cooler, 

changeover heating/cooling)

A total of 9 areas, all of which can be assigned either to the intended bus 
functions or to other individual bus functions (switches, changeover 
switches, dimmers, blinds, awnings, shutters, windows, 8- or 16-bit encoders, 
scene call/saving)

LEDs 

can be set. All LEDs Off, all LEDs On, active LEDs Always On, all LEDs 

On for specific time after button pressed, active LEDs On for specific time after 
button pressed. Settable, as to whether LED flashes at block object value = 1. 
LED brightness can be pre-set for day and night

Area function

 when touching two or more push buttons. Can be configured 

as switch, selector switch, as 8 or 16 bit encoder or for scenario recall

Scene control. 

3 scene channels with 5 objects each

Temperature

 measurements.

 Mixed value

 from own measured value and 

external values (proportion can be set by percentage), output of minimum 
and maximum values

PI-controller for heating

 (one or two-level) and 

cooling

 (one or two-level) 

according to temperature. Regulation according to separate setpoints or 
basic setpoint temperature

4 AND and 4 OR logic gates

 each with 4 inputs. All switching events as 

well as 8 logic inputs (in the form of communications objects) can be used as 
inputs for the logic gates. The output from each gate can be configured 
optionally as 1-bit or 2 x 8-bit

Configuration is made using the KNX software ETS 5. The 

product file

 can be dow-

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

www.elsner-elektronik.de

 in the “Service” menu.

1.0.1. Area function

If the area function in ETS has been activated, another function is available alongsi-
de the regular key functions. This is triggered by touching multiple keys, e.g. if you
touch the sensor with the palm of your hand.

Using the area function

If a key is pressed and another (different) key is touched within 0.2 seconds, the ac-
tion set in the ETS is performed for the area operation (See Fig. 1 a) and b)). The keys
are then blocked for 0.5 seconds.

Using the normal key function

If a key is pressed and no other key is touched within 0.2 seconds, the normal key
function is enabled/provided for 5 seconds (See Fig. 1 c) and d)). This is extended
for 5 seconds with each push of the button.

If the area function in the ETS is disabled, the keys can be used normally at any time.

1.1. Scope of delivery

Push button with mounting

4 screw anchors 4 × 20 mm, 4 flat head screws 3 × 25 mm

1.2. Technical data

The product is compliant with the provisions of EU Directives.

1.2.1. Accuracy of the measurement

Measurement variations from permanent sources of interference (see chapter 

Ins-

tallation position

) can be corrected in the ETS in order to ensure the specified accu-

racy of the sensor (offset).

When 

measuring temperature

, the self-heating of the device is considered by the

electronics. The heating is compensated by the software.

Installation and commissioning

2.1. Installation notes

Installation, testing, operational start-up and troubleshooting should 
only be performed by an electrician.

CAUTION!
Live voltage! 

There are unprotected live components inside the device.

National legal regulations are to be followed.

Ensure that all lines to be assembled are free of voltage and take
precautions against accidental switching on.

Do not use the device if it is damaged. 

Take the device or system out of service and secure it against
unintentional use, if it can be assumed, that risk-free operation is
no longer guaranteed.

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.
