3.3.1 Introduction 

 

The basic setting for each channel is the parameterization as a drive controller or as a switching 
channel with 2 outputs. 
 
The function and thus the type and designation of the individual objects depend on the use of the 
corresponding channel, i.e. drive, roller shutter, blinds, switching channel, timer and the like. 

 

 
In this case, we will use channel 1 as an example. 

  

3.3.2 Overview 

 

3.3.2.1  Channel Parameterised as a Drive Mechanism 

 
When the channel is parameterised as a drive mechanism, you can select the type of element that is to be driven 
(see the table below).
