3.1
C
ommunication
objects
per
channel
The
communication
objects
appear
for
every
channel
in
dependence
of
the
respective
parameterization.
10
numbers
(0
‐
9,
10
‐
19,…)
for
communication
objects
are
automatically
assigned
for
every
pair
of
channels.
The
numeration
is
consecutive,
so
the
channel
pair
A/B
can
only
have
the
numbers
from
0
to
9,
the
same
if
they
parameterized
as
grouped
channels
or
unique
channels.
With
every
following
channel
pair
the
numbers
of
the
objects
increase
by
10,
even
if
a
channel
pair
is
disabled.
If
you
choose
a
channel
pair
as
unique,
the
channel,
which
is
first
in
the
alphabet,
will
become
the
first
5
numbers
and
the
other
one
will
become
the
following
five
numbers
(e.g.
channel
A
‐‐
>0
‐
4
and
channel
B
‐‐
>5
‐
9).
The
numeration
of
the
channels
is
always
the
same
even
if
some
channels
are
disabled.
Exceptions
of
this
order
are
the
communication
objects
for
the
LED
‐
outputs.
These
communication
objects
have
the
numbers
behind
the
logic
blocks.
Also
here,
the
first
number
after
the
logic
blocks
is
for
the
LED
output
of
channel
A,
the
second
for
the
LED
output
of
channel
B
and
so
on.
The
communication
objects
are
used
for
the
assignment
of
the
group
addresses.
The
following
illustration
shows
the
communication
objects
for
the
channels.
Here,
channel
A/B
are
parameterized
as
grouped
with
a
dual
‐
surface
dimming
function.
Channels
C
and
D
are
adjusted
as
unique
channels,
so
both
channels
have
an
individual
function.
Channel
C
is
adjusted
as
switch
and
channel
B
as
LED
output:
