1.3. Notes on wireless equipment
When planning facilities with devices that communicate via radio, adequate radio
reception must be guaranteed. The range will be limited by legal regulation and
structural circumstances. Avoid sources of interference and obstacles between re-
ceiver and transmitter, that could disturb the wireless communication. Those
would be for example:
• Walls and ceilings (especially concrete and solar protection glazing).
• Metal surfaces next to the wireless participants (e. g. aluminium
construction of a conservatory).
• Other wireless devices and powerful local transmitters (e.g. wireless
headphones), which transmit on the same frequency. Please maintain a
minimum distance of 30 cm between wireless transmitters for that reason.
1.4. General notes
The device is only to be used for the intended purpose described in this manual.
Any improper modification or failure to follow the operating instructions voids any
and all warranty and guarantee claims.
After unpacking the device, check it immediately for possible mechanical damage.

3.3.3. Switching devices (on/off)
Tapping the right side of the bar switches the device on. Tapping the left
side of the bar switches the device off. The buttons can be provided with a
label, in the ETS, in the menu Wireless channel configuration > On/Off text (see ma-
nual, Chapter Changing the On/Off Text).
If the ‘Feedback’ setting is activated in the ETS, the status reported by the bus (text,
on/yellow symbol or off/grey symbol) is displayed. Otherwise, there is no feedback
for the status. The feedback text can be changed in the ETS in the menu Wireless
channel configuration > Feedback text (see manual, Chapter Changing the Feed-
back Text).
For ETS settings, see manual, Chapter Channel 1...8, section Switching.
3.3.4. Dimming
‘Buttons’ and ‘sliders’ can be activated as operating interfaces in the ETS. If mul-
tiple interfaces are active, you can switch between the views using the right area
of the bar (side symbol ).
Buttons:
A shorter tap on + switches on, tapping on - switches off.
A longer tap on + adjusts the light to a brighter setting, holding -, to a dar-
ker setting. If you release the key, the brightness stops changing.
The time interval between short and long and other parameters are set in the ETS.
If the ‘Feedback’ setting is activated in the ETS, the status reported by the bus (on/
yellow symbol or off/grey symbol) is displayed. Otherwise, there is no feedback for
the status.
The dimming percentage is shown in the button, left of the symbol, if the ‘Feed-
back’ setting was activated in the ETS.
Sliders:
Shift the point on the line to dim the lights. If ‘feedback’ is activated in the
ETS, then the current brightness will be displayed in %, and the position of the
point on the line will correspond to the current brightness as soon as feedback is
received.
For ETS settings, see manual, Chapter Channel 1...8, section Dimming.
3.3.5. RGB(W) lights
To set individual light values for red, green, blue and white, use the buttons to
switch the lights on/off, and three (RGB) or four (RGBW) sliders to adjust the co-
lour.
These functions can all be placed on a single channel (i.e. one bar). In this case, you
can switch between the functions using the right area of the bar (side symbol ).
However, the functions can be distributed over multiple channels, so that swit-
ching and colour control can be carried out via multiple adjacent bars. The confi-
guration takes place in the ETS.
Sending settings to the lights:
Depending on the settings, the changes on the RGBW sliders will be sent directly
to the lights, or the settings will only be sent if you remain on the right button (on)
longer.
On/off buttons:
Tapping the right side of the bar switches the device on. Tapping the left
side of the bar switches the device off. The buttons can be provided with a
label, in the ETS, in the menu Wireless channel configuration > On/Off text (see ma-
nual, Chapter Changing the On/Off Text).
If the ‘Feedback’ setting is activated in the ETS, the status reported by the bus (text)
is displayed. Otherwise, there is no feedback for the status. The feedback text can
be changed in the ETS in the menu Wireless channel configuration > Feedback text
(see manual, Chapter Changing the Feedback Text).
Colour view:
The current colour setting is shown in a box on the bar; the representation on the
display can deviate severely from the actual light colour.
RGB luminaire without feedback: 1 box
RGBW luminaire without feedback: 2 boxes
RGB luminaire with feedback: 2 boxes
RGBW luminaire with feedback: 4 boxes
Sliders:
Shift the point on the line to change the light colour with the red, green,
blue and white parameters. The colour bar on the left shows the colour; the re-
presentation on the display can deviate severely from the actual light colour.
If ‘feedback’ is activated in the ETS, then the current brightness will be displayed
in %, the position of the point on the line will correspond to the current brightness,
and the colour bar will update as soon as feedback is received.
For ETS settings, see manual, Chapter Channel 1...8, section RGBW.
3.3.6. Lights with adjustable colour temperature
‘Buttons’ and ‘sliders’ can be activated as operating interfaces in the ETS. If mul-
tiple interfaces are active, you can switch between the views using the right area
of the bar (side symbol ).
Buttons:
Holding + switches the device on; holding - switches the device off.
Tapping + makes the light colder; tapping -, warmer.
The time interval between short and long and other parameters are set in the ETS.
If the ‘Feedback’ setting is activated in the ETS, the colour temperature value re-
ported by the bus (colour field red (warmer light), blue (colder light) and Kelvin va-
lue) is displayed. Otherwise, there is no feedback for the status.
Sliders:
Shift the point on the line to change the colour temperature. If ‘feedback’
is activated in the ETS, then the current colour temperature will be displayed in Kel-
vins (K), and the position of the point on the line will correspond to the current co-
lour temperature as soon as feedback is received.
The colour bar on the right indicates the colour tendency towards warm or cold
with reddish, white or bluish colours.
For ETS settings, see manual, Chapter Channel 1...8, section Colour temperature.
3.3.7. Changing temperature
Adjusting heating or cooling
‘Buttons’ and ‘sliders’ can be activated as operating interfaces in the ETS. If mul-
tiple interfaces are active, you can switch between the views using the right area
of the bar (side symbol ).
Buttons:
Tap+ to increase the target temperature.
Tap- to reduce the target temperature.
The current target temperature is shown in the button, left of the symbol, if the
‘Feedback’ setting was activated in the ETS (always for temperature objects). The
way the temperature change takes place is set in the ETS.
Sliders:
Shift the point on the line to change the temperature. If ‘feedback’ is activa-
ted in the ETS, then the current target temperature will be displayed in C° as soon
as feedback is received.
For ETS settings, see manual, Chapter Channel 1...8, section Temperature.
3.3.8. Scenes
Each scene button is used to control two scenes: The left button half for one, and
the right button half for the other scene.
Tap a button half for a short time to call the scene.
Holding it longer saves the scene in the current state (e.g. movement position,
dimming level etc.), provided this function was activated in the ETS.
For ETS settings, see manual, Chapter Channel 1...8, section Scene.
3.3.9. Measured value view
A bar can be used as a display area for values from the bus system. Actions not
possible.
