Fig. 1 KNX/SMI Actuator REG-3TE16KBT
Up to 16 SMI sun shading drives in up to 16 groups can
be operated centrally using the KNX/SMI Actuator REG-
3TE16KBT.
The drives are operated via the KNX bus system. The
actuator is supplied via the KNX bus. The SMI interface,
however, is operated via a 230VAC auxiliary voltage
source.
The drives are operated directly with 230VAC. A maxi-
mum of 16 motors without fuse protection can be connect-
ed to the SMI interface.
Intended use
The KNX/SMI Actuator REG-3TE16KBT is an electron-
ic device for controlling SMI sun shading systems. The
approval of the manufacturer must be obtained for any use
of the device other than its intended purpose specified in
these instructions.
The actuator is intended for installation in enclosed electri-
cal operating facilities.
Safety instructions
ARNINGW
The electrical installation (assembly)/dis-
mantling must be performed by a certified
electrician in accordance with VDE 0100
or the legal requirements and standards
of the country in which the device is being
installed. The electrician must observe the
installation instructions included with the
electrical devices supplied.
ARNINGW
If it is assumed that hazard-free operation
will not be possible, the device may not
be started or must be deactivated. This
assumption is justified if:
the housing or the connecting lines show signs of
damage,
the device is no longer working.
ARNINGW
It is important to comply with the following
points in the interest of personal safety.
Children may not play with the operating elements of
the control unit or the remote control. Store remote
controls out of reach of children.
Make sure that no persons or objects are in the range
of movement of the driven parts (blinds, external vene-
tian blinds, etc.).
Disconnect the device from the operating voltage if
cleaning or other maintenance work must be per-
formed!
Actuator functions
The software functions of the KNX/SMI actuator are
described in detail in the software manual (article number
40026300110). You can download the software manual
and the product database for the actuator from
www.becker-antriebe.com/downloads or from the ETS
online catalogue.
Installation
The device is intended for installation in a distribution
cabinet. The device is installed by clipping it onto a DIN
rail (TH 35/DIN 60715).
Electrical connection
An on-site overload current protection device (fuse) and a
disconnecting and isolating switch to switch off the entire
unit must be provided.
The unit is electrically connected according to the wiring
diagram on the reverse (Fig. 5). The connection to the
KNX bus system and the drives is made using spring
terminals, the connecting lines are designed as screw
terminals.
Commissioning
After the installation has been completed and the oper-
ating voltages have been applied, the correct connection
can be tested using the manual override operation keypad
under the cover panel (broadcast push button up/down
all drives) (Fig. 3). You will find a detailed description on
the further commissioning in the software manual (article
number 40026300110).
Local operation via App / Bluetooth (LE)
You will find the app for the commissioning or emergency
operation of the actuator in the Apple AppStore and in the
Google Play Store.
Download this to your smartphone.
Once the app is started, the surrounding area is scanned
for actuators. Available actuators are shown and can be
operated. Operation via app has the same priority as man-
ual operation via group objects. The operating behaviour
is as follows:
Brief push of the button = Stop move command
Long push of the button = Up/Down move command
A detailed description of the operation is integrated in the
app and can also be found in the associated software
manual (article number 40026300110). If a motor has
not been allocated to an output, it can be operated only
via SMI broadcast.
The communication between the smartphone and
the KNX devices is established via Bluetooth. This
function can be switched off via the ETS (the func-
tion is always pre-set in the factory to "On").
During parameterisation, change the default pass-
word in accordance with your specifications and
memorise your password in order to prevent ope-
ration by unauthorised persons.
