4.5 Central objects
The parameter “central objects“ defines for every channel if he shall react to the central objects or
not.

The following chart shows the dynamic range for this parameter:

Chart 14: dynamic range central objects
The central communication objects are displayed durable also the function “central objects” is
deactivated in every channel. Central objects are accounted as “all channels” and at the top of the
list for the communication objects.
Number Name Length Usage
0 Shutter up/down 1 Bit Driving function for all channels
1 Blinds up/down/stop 1 Bit Adjustment of blinds/stopping blind adjustment
for every channel, which is defined as shutter
2 Stop 1 Bit stop function for every channel
3 absolute Position 1 Byte absolute command for height at every channel
4 absolute position of blinds 1 Byte absolute command for opening angle of blinds at
every channel, which is defined as shutter
Chart 15: central communication objects
Activating the central objects in selected channels enables the triggering of several channels to the
same time with only one command.
The object 0 “shutter up/down” is the central driving object and controls as well channels selected as
shutter as channels selected as blinds in which the parameter was activated.
The object 1 “blinds up/down/stop” controls only channels selected as shutter in which the central
function was activated. It drives the blinds and stops a running up ‐ or down ‐ movement.
Object number 2, called “stop”, is the central stop function for every channel. Also object 3 “absolute
position” is for shutter ‐ and blind ‐ channels with activated central function. By this object, you can
give the actor absolute commands for the height of the shutter/blinds.
The object 4 “absolute position of blinds” controls only channels selected as shutter. It controls the
opening angle of the blinds by an absolute position command.
