OPERATING PRINCIPLE ENOCEAN
An EnOcean radio network consists of sensors and actuators. The sensors utilize your ambient energy to
transmit the corresponding radio signal. So that an actuator can interpret and respond to the signals of
a sensor, the actuator must be adapted to the sensor. The so-called EnOcean Profiles (EEP) determine
how the data provided by the sensor are to be interpreted. Thus, it is important that sensor and
actuator utilize the same EnOcean Profile (EEP).
Device categories / sensors
EnOcean distinguishes between three device categories in its sensor technology. The device category
gives information about the kind of EnOcean signal involved and simultaneously about what the
receiver can expect.
Switch module: A module which sends out a corresponding radio signal via user interaction.
That is switches, rockers, position and key card switches as well as window handles.
1 byte sensor: A sensor which sends out information of 1 byte size.
4 byte sensor: A sensor which sends out information of 4 byte size.
Actuators
Actuators will perform their controlling on the basis of sensor signals. Therefore, sensor and actuator
have to be adapted to each other. Thus, it is important to know which EnOcean profile is to be
emulated to address a LINKMOUDULE actuator correctly. The actuator manufacturer will inform you
about which profile the actuator utilizes.
