Description

Binary input module, 4x inputs (requires 5WG11184AB01)

Product and function description

The RL 260/23 binary input is a KNX device with four binary input channels. The device is installed in an AP 118 Control Module Box or an AP 641 Room Control Box. The bus is connected via a bus terminal block. The device electronics are supplied via the bus voltage.

The device enables both statuses (contact is opened or closed respectively voltage is applied or not) and changes in status (contact is being opened or closed respectively voltage is rising or falling) to be recorded, as well as voltage impulses. It can therefore be used, for example, to monitor voltages, to record circuit or operating states (whether a miniature circuit-breaker or a residual-current circuit-breaker has been released, a plant is switched on or off, a malfunction or an alarm is being signalled), to record the change of status when switching on or switching off a voltage (whether a switch or a pushbutton was activated, whether it was activated for a shorter or longer period, whether the voltage was switched on or off due to the activation) and to record and count voltage pulses with a minimum voltage ontime of 110 ms and a max. pulse succession of up to 4 pulses per second, without or with monitoring of the number of pulses counted until a predetermined threshold has been reached or exceeded.

The RL 260/23 binary input supports a multitude of applications and enables one of the following functions to be assigned to every input:

Switching status / binary value transmission
Switching, edge-triggered
Switching, short / long operation
1-button dimming
1-button solar protection control
1-button group control (sequence control)
1-bit Scene control
8-bit Scene control
8-bit value, edge-triggered
8-bit value, short / long operation
16-bit floating point value, edge-triggered
16-bit floating point value, short / long operation
8-bit pulse counting without threshold check
8-bit pulse counting with threshold check
16-bit pulse counting without threshold check
16-bit pulse counting with threshold check
32-bit pulse counting without threshold check
32-bit pulse counting with threshold check.

Two consecutive channels (A and B resp. C and D) that were configured as a pair of inputs can be configured for one of these functions:

Dual-button dimming with stop telegram
Dual-button control of solar protection

The device is configured and commissioned with the ETS (Engineering Tool Software) version ETS3 v3.0f or later.
