Three rocker push buttons and actuator with 8 A change-over relay output,
to complete with interchangeable 1 or 2-module buttons – 3 modules.
Device to be used as three single buttons or one single and one double, depending on the button. It can
be pressed both at the top and at the bottom. The relay can be configured to work in both one-position
and two-position stable mode.
CHARACTERISTICS.
• Rated supply voltage: BUS 9 V
• Input: 16 mA

• Controllable loads at 120-230 V~ (contact NO):
- resistive loads: 8 A (20.000 cycles)
- incandescent lamps: 8 A (20.000 cycles)
- fluorescent lamps and energy saving lamps: 1 A (20.000 cycles)
- electronic transformers: 4 A (20.000 cycles)
- ferromagnetic transformers: 8 A (20.000 cycles)
• Controllable loads at 120-230 V~ (contacts NC and NO):
- motors cos ø 0.6: 3,5 A (100.000 cycles)
• Button: 1 double, 1 single or 3 single ones.
• Terminals: TP bus, relay contacts (NO, C, NC)
• Possible functions:
- ON/OFF switch
- roller shutter control
- dimmer control
- activation of 2 scenarios.
•
Consist with:
- By-me flush and surface mounting control units, rel.2.0 and next
- By-me 2-module control units, rel. 2.0 and next
CONFIGURATION.
FOR THE OPERATIONS OF INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION, SEE THE By-me SYSTEM
INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL ATTACHED TO THE CONTROL UNIT.
Configuration must be done with the device without the key to be able to press the central configuration
button. The device can be used as three single buttons or one double push-button and a single one.
• Functional blocks: 4 (3 buttons, 1 relay), each functional block can belong to at most 4 groups.
• Selecting the functional block (configuration): during group creation, when the control unit requires pressing
the device button:
- press the configuration button;
- if the device must be configured as three single push-buttons, within 3 s, press the right-hand button
to select the right functional unit, the middle button to select the middle functional unit or the left-hand
button to select the left functional unit; the red LED illuminates. If none of the three buttons is pressed
within approximately 3 s the red LED will light up; in this case the functional block selected is the 4th,
referring to the actuator.
- if the device must be configured used as a double and a single push-button, proceed as follows:
• configure the left functional unit in the case in which you want a push-button with two modules on the left of
the device (left middle button) and then configure the right functional unit (right button);
• configure the middle functional unit in the case in which you want a push-button with two modules on the
right of the device (middle right button) and then configure the left functional unit (left button).
- with the red LED on, the control unit will configure the functional block; at the end of this operation the red
LED will go out.
When the device is not configured, the actuator is controlled by the left-hand button.
PARAMETERS.
• For the functional blocks related to the tree buttons it is possible to set the operating mode:
- ON/OFF button;
- dimmer control button;
- roller shutter control button;
- scenario control.
• Operation as a dimmer control button:
- pressing the key above for less than 0.5 s lights up the load with the dimming at the saved point;
- pressing the key above for more than 0.5 s increases brightness until it is released;
- pressing the key below for more than 0.5 s decreases brightness until it is released;
- pressing the key below for less than 0.5 s switches off the load.
• Operation as a roller shutter control button:
- pressing the key above for more than 0.5 s opens the shutter completely; it stops when fully open or
when briefly pressing the key (either above or below);
- pressing the key below for more than 0.5 s closes the shutter completely; it stops when fully closed or
when briefly pressing the key (either above or below);
• LED parameters:
- LED off;
- LED with normal operation (on if the associated actuator is ON);
- LED with reverse operation;
- LED always on for location in the dark;
- central LED with normal operation (Double button);
- central LED with reverse operation (Double button);
- central LED always on for location in the dark (Double button).
If the functional block belongs to more than one group, the “LED with normal operation” and “LED
with reverse operation” parameters are not available. In these cases the control is confirmed by a LED
status change for 3 s. If a double key is used, it is necessary to set the central LED behaviour to make
the status visible. In this case, configure the left button if the double button is on the left of the device
or the middle button if the double button is on the right.
• Functional block 4, related to the relay (see figure 1):
- one- or two-position stable operation;
- on delay and off delay: a value between 0 and 200 gives the time in seconds, a value between 201
and 250 gives the time in minutes (for example 201 = 1 minute, 202 = 2 minutes, etc.);
One-position stable operation.
On delay: delay in closing the NO contact of the relay from receiving the close command. Off delay:
time for which the relay has the NO contact closed.
Two-position stable operation.
On delay: delay in closing the NO contact of the relay from receiving the ON command. Off delay: delay in
opening the NO contact of the relay from receiving the OFF command.
If a group is created with a number of relays in one-position stable mode, set for all the same on and
off delays and do not insert any other types of actuator in the same group; in this way, it is possible to
have the status of the one-position stable relay indicated on the control button. For special require-
ments it is possible to use the group depth (for example to switch on two-position stable relays or
dimmers with a single button).
• Default parameters: the two keys are enabled as a dimmer control and LED in normal operation;
relay set on two-position stable operation with null on and off delay. the buttons are set as ON/
OFF push-buttons (step step) and LED in normal operation. The buttons are set as ON/OFF push-
buttons (step step).
SCENARIOS.
Each tilt button can be dedicated to activating one or two scenarios. The actuator can belong to
multiple scenarios and, for each one of them, save the status to retrieve when activating the scenario.
For further details see the control panel manual.
INSTALLATION RULES.
Installation should be carried out by qualified staff in compliance with the current regulations regarding
the installation of electrical equipment in the country where the products are installed. The feeding
circuit of the relay output must be protected against overloads by a device, fuse or automatic circuit
breaker, with rated current not higher than 10 A. For further instructions, please see the manual attached
to the control panel.

WEEE - Information for users
If the crossed-out bin symbol appears on the equipment or packaging, this means the product
must not be included with other general waste at the end of its working life. The user must take
the worn product to a sorted waste center, or return it to the retailer when purchasing a new one.
Products for disposal can be consigned free of charge (without any new purchase obligation) to
retailers with a sales area of at least 400 m
2
, if they measure less than 25 cm. An efficient sorted
waste collection for the environmentally friendly disposal of the used device, or its subsequent
recycling, helps avoid the potential negative effects on the environment and people’s health, and
encourages the re-use and/or recycling of the construction materials.
