Description
The ekinex® pushbutton of 71 Serie is a KNX S-mode de-
vice for on/off switching of loads, dimming of lighting de-
vices, controlling of motor drives or other programmable
switching and control functions. The integrated tempera-
ture sensor allows the use as a room or zone temperature
controller. It is equipped with an integrated KNX bus com-
munication module and is designed for wall installation
on fl ush-mounting box. Each channel can be freely con-
fi gured to carry out 1 or 2 bus functions and is provided
with programmable LED (blue/green or red/white) e.g.
as a staus feedback or orientation nightlight. Pressing a
rocker, the device sends on the bus a telegram, which
is received and executed by one or more KNX actuators
depending on the confi guration carried out. The device is
powered by the KNX bus line with a SELV voltage 30 Vdc
and does not require auxiliary power.

Completion of the pushbutton
The pushbutton is completed through a separate order of:
• a set of rockers that allows the use as a 1-fold, 2-fold
or 4-fold pushbutton;
• a 1-fold plate (square, EK-PQS-...) or a 2-fold plate
(rectangular, EK-P2G-... or EK-P2S-...) in combination
with another bus device of 71 Serie or a 55 x 55 mm
fl ush-mounting insert;
• a square frame of the ekinex® form or fl ank series (not
for the ‘NF - No Frame versions).
Rockers
Three-positions rockers with central neutral position have
to be mounted on the pushbutton. Pushing one side of
a rocker (for example the upper one), the pushbutton
sends on the bus a telegram for switching on, increasing
the brightness of luminaires or raising the blinds, while
pushing the other side (for example the lower one), it sen-
ds a telegram for switching off , reducing the brightness of
luminaires or lowering the blinds. Each channel is equip-
ped with LEDs which can be freely programmed as status
feedbacks of the loads and as orientation nightlight.
Plate
The pushbutton may be completed by a square 1-fold pla-
te or by a rectangular 2-fold plate. In both cases the plate
must be necessarily provided with a 60 x 60 mm window
for the mounting of the device.
Mounting
The device has degree of protection IP20, and is there-
fore suitable for use in dry interior rooms. The installation
of the device diff ers depending on the mounting with or
without frame (‘NF series).
Mounting with frame
Carry out the following steps:
• fi x the metallic support (h) with the pair of screws (g) on
the fl ush-mounting box (i) equipped with fi xing holes at
60 mm distance;
• press for fi xing the pushbutton (d) on the adapter (e);
• insert pushbutton and adapter (d+e) in the metallic sup-
port (h). Mounting the device follow also the indication
TOP (arrow tip pointing up) on the rear side of the de-
vice;
• snap a square frame (f) of the form or fl ank series, in-
serting it from the rear of the pushbutton (d);
• enter the bus terminal block, previously connected to
the bus cable in its slot on the rear side (see also: “Con-
nection of the KNX bus line”). At this point it is recom-
mended to carry out the commissioning of the device
(see also “Confi guration and commissioning”) or at le-
ast the download of the physical address;
• fasten the device on the metallic support supplied with
the pair of screws (c);
• snap the rockers (b) for the operation of the device;
• snap the plate (a).

Frame
The pushbutton can be completed by a square 1-fold fra-
me or by a rectangular 2-fold frame of the fl ank or form
series. The ‘NF (No Frame) versions of the pushbutton do
not require any frame.
Mounting without frame (‘NF series)
Carry out the following steps:
• insert the metallic support (f) on the adapter (g);
• fi x adapter and support (f+g) with the pair of screws
(e) on the fl ush-mounting box (h) equipped with fi xing
holes at 60 mm distance;
• enter the bus terminal block, previously connected to
the bus cable in its slot on the rear side (see also: “Con-
nection of the KNX bus line”). At this point it is recom-
mended to carry out the commissioning of the device
(see also “Confi guration and commissioning”) or at le-
ast the download of the physical address;
• insert the pushbutton (d) on the metallic support (f);
• fasten the device on the metallic support supplied with
the pair of screws (c);
• snap the rockers (b) for the operation of the device;
• snap the plate (a).

The pushbutton has to be mounted on a round or square
fl ush-mounting box with distance between fi xing holes of
60 mm. If necessary, the metallic support for mounting
on the wall box can also be ordered separately using the
code EK-S71.
Main functional characteristics (room temperature con-
troller)
• Temperature measuring through integrated sensor with
possibility of sending the value on the bus
• 2-point (on/off ) or proportional (PWM or continuous)
room temperature regulation
• Seasonal conduction modes: heating and cooling with
possibility of changeover via bus or automatic depen-
ding on the confi guration
• Operating modes: comfort, standby, economy and bu-
ilding protection with diff erent setpoint for heating and
cooling
• Automatic switching of the operating modes triggered
by window opening/closing
• Weighted average of two temperature values
• Temperature control alarm
• Anti-locking function for valves (hydronic systems)
Note. Programming pushbutton and LED are ac-
cessible from the front side of the device. It is better
addressing the device before the final assembly of
rockers and frame. Once the addressing has been
performed, the device configuration can be later
downloaded without pressing the programming pu-
shbutton.

Mounting without frame
Mounting position
If the integrated sensor is used for temperature regula-
tion, the device has to be installed preferably lon an in-
ternal wall at the height of 1,5 m and at least 0,3 m far
from doors. The device can not be installed close to heat
sources such as radiators or houshold appliances or in
position subjected to direct sunlight. If necessary, for the
regulation can be used a weighted average value betwe-
en the value measured by the integrated sensor and a
value received via bus by another KNX device.
1,50 m
min 0,3 m
Use as a room temperature controller
The pushbutton can be also used as a room temperature
controller for single-stage heating/cooling systems with
radiators, radiant panels and electrical heaters. As the
device has no user interface, it must receive the operatio-
nal parameters by the bus (e.g. operating mode, seasonal
conduction mode or a change of the setpoint value).
Switching, display and connection elements
The device is equipped with four mechanisms for
switching, four LEDs for each channel, a programming
LED and a programming pushbutton and a terminal block
for connection of the bus line.
Switching elements
• Pushbutton (8) for switching between the normal and
programming operating modes
• One, two or four rockers (4) for independent switching
of single or group of loads
Display elements
• Red LED (7) for indication of the active operating mode
(on = programming, off = normal operation)
• Freely programmable LED with lightguide (5) e.g. for
feedback status and orientation nightlight LED

Commissioning
For commissioning the device the following activities are
required:
• make the electrical connections as described above;
• turn on the bus power supply;
• switch the device operation to the programming mode
by pressing the programming pushbutton located on
the front side of the housing. In this mode of operation,
the programming LED is turned on;
• download into the device the physical address and the
confi guration with the ETS® program.
At the end of the download the operation of the device
automatically returns to normal mode; in this mode the
programming LED is turned off . Now the bus device is
programmed and ready for use.

Connection of the KNX bus line
The connection of the KNX bus line is made with the ter-
minal block (black/red) included in delivery and inserted
into the slot of the housing.
Characteristics of the KNX terminal block
• spring clamping of conductors
• 4 seats for conductors for each polarity
• terminal suitable for KNX bus cable with single-wire
conductors and diameter between 0.6 and 0.8 mm
• recommended wire stripping approx. 5 mm
• color codifi cation: red = + (positive) bus conductor,
black = – (negative) bus conductor
Confi guration and commissioning
Confi guration and commissioning of the device require
the use of the ETS® (Engineering Tool Software) program
V4 or later releases. These activities must be carried out
according to the design of the building automation system
done by a qualifi ed planner.
Warning! The electrical connection of the device
can be carried out only by qualified personnel. The
incorrect installation may result in electric shock or
fire. Before making the electrical connections, make
sure the power supply has been turned off.
