3 Description
Cala KNX M-T CH push button • Version: 25.04.2022 • Technical changes and errors excepted.
1. Description
The Cala KNX M-T CH push button has touch-sensitive buttons, with which func-
tions in the KNX building bus system can be called, such as switch lights and devices,
dim, activate drives, send values, scenarios. A white LED is integrated into each touch
button, the behaviour of which can be adjusted.
A temperature sensor is integrated into Cala KNX M-T CH. An external temperature
reading can be received via the bus and processed with its own data to create a total
temperature (mixed value).
Communication objects can be connected by AND and OR logic gates.
The device is supplemented with a frame of the switch series used in the building, and
thus fits seamlessly into the interior fittings.
Cala KNX M1-T CH functions:
•1Touch bus button, can be configured as switch, selector switch, dimmer,
blind (position and slats up/stop OR down/stop), shutters (up/down/stop),
awning (in/out/stop), window (closed/open/stop), as 8 or 16-bit encoder or for
scenario recall/storage
Cala KNX M2-T CH functions:
•2 Touch bus button, can be configured as switch, selector switch, dimmer,
for operating drives, as 8 or 16-bit encoder or for scenario recall/storage
•Area function when touching both push buttons. Can be configured as
switch, selector switch, as 8 or 16 bit encoder or for scenario recall
Cala KNX M4-T CH functions:
•4 Touch bus button, can be configured as switch, selector switch, dimmer,
for operating drives, as 8 or 16-bit encoder or for scenario recall/storage
•Area function when touching two or more push buttons. Can be configured
as switch, selector switch, as 8 or 16 bit encoder or for scenario recall
Function of all models:
•OneLED per touch area. On for object value = 1 / Off for object value = 0, On
after pressing button for settable time or always off. Settable, as to whether
LED flashes at block object value = 1
•Temperature measurements. Mixed value from own measured value and
external values (proportion can be set by percentage)
•2 AND and 2 OR logic gates each with 4 inputs. All switching events as well
as 8 logic inputs (in the form of communications objects) can be used as inputs
for the logic gates. The output from each gate can be configured optionally as
1-bit or 2 x 8-bit
Configuration is made using the KNX software as of ETS 5. The product file can be
downloaded from the ETS online catalogue and the Elsner Elektronik website on
www.elsner-elektronik.de in the “Service” menu. There you will also find the pro-
duct manual.

4 Description
Cala KNX M-T CH push button • Version: 25.04.2022 • Technical changes and errors excepted.
1.0.1. Area function
If the area function in ETS has been activated, another function is available alongside
the regular key functions. This is triggered by touching multiple keys, e.g. if you touch
the sensor with the palm of your hand.
Using the area function
If a key is pressed and another (different) key is touched within 0.2 seconds, the action
set in the ETS is performed for the area operation (See Fig. 1 a) and b)). The keys are
then blocked for 0.5 seconds.
Using the normal key function
If a key is pressed and no other key is touched within 0.2 seconds, the normal key func-
tion is enabled/provided for 5 seconds (See Fig. 1 c) and d)). This is extended for 5 sec-
onds with each push of the button.
If the area function in the ETS is disabled, the keys can be used normally at any time.

electrical installation.
• Immediately take the device or system out of service and secure it against un-
intentional switch-on if risk-free operation is no longer guaranteed.
Use the device exclusively for building automation and observe the operating instruc-
tions. Improper use, modifications to the device or failure to observe the operating in-
structions will invalidate any warranty or guarantee claims.
Operate the device only as a fixed-site installation, i.e. only in assembled condition and
after conclusion of all installation and operational start-up tasks, and only in the sur-
roundings designated for it.

after publication of these operating instructions.
2.1. Installation location
The Cala KNX M-T CH push button is made for wall mounting in an inlet box. The
device is supplemented with a frame of the 60 mm swiss installation standard.
May be installed and operated in dry interior rooms only.
When selecting an installation location, ensure that the measurement results are af-
fected as little as possible by external influences. Possible sources of interference in-
clude:
• Direct sunlight
• Drafts from windows and doors
• Draft from ducts which lead from other rooms or from the outside to the
junction box in which the sensor is mounted
• Warming or cooling of the building structure on which the sensor is mounted,
e.g. due to sunlight, heating or cold water pipes
• Connection lines and ducts which lead from warmer or colder areas to the
sensor
Measurement variations from permanent sources of interference can be corrected in
the ETS in order to ensure the specified accuracy of the sensor (offset).

8 Commissioning
Cala KNX M-T CH push button • Version: 25.04.2022 • Technical changes and errors excepted.
Turn the screws little way into the mounting adapter.
Position the frame of the switching programme. Connect the bus line +/- to the black-
red plug.
Pin the housing with the notches on to the mounting adapter, so that device and frame
are fixed. The device has to be inserted such that the bus terminal faces up (see Fig. 3).
This is necessary for a correct temperature measurement and for Cala KNX M2-T CH
and Cala KNX M4-T CH also for button allocation.
3. Commissioning
Never expose the device to water (e.g. rain) or dust. This can damage the electronics.
You must not exceed a relative humidity of 95%. Avoid condensation.
After the bus voltage has been applied, the device will enter an initialisation phase last-
ing a few seconds. During this phase no information can be received or sent via the
bus.
3.1. Addressing of the device at the bus
The individual address is assigned via the ETS. A button and a control LED are located
on the unit for this purpose (Fig. 3, No. 4+5).
The equipment is delivered with the bus address 15.15.255. Another address can be
programmed using the ETS.
When programming mode is active, the programming LED lights up and all other LEDs
also flash.
4. Maintenance
Ventilation slits must not be dirty of covered. As a rule, it is sufficient to wipe the device
with a soft, dry cloth as required.

7.4.2. Control modes for drive control
Behaviour on button actuation in standard control mode:
Standard:
If briefly operated, the drive will move incrementally or stops. If operated longer, the
drive will move up to the end position. The time difference between "short" and "long"
is set individually.
Standard inverted:
When pushed shortly, the drive moves up to the end position. When pushed for longer,
the drive moves incrementally or stops. The time difference between "short" and
"long" and the repeat interval is set individually.
Comfort mode:
In the comfort mode actuating the button briefly, a bit longer and long will trigger dif-
ferent responses of the drive. The time intervals are set individually.
Short actuation (shorter than Time 1): The drive is positioned step-wise and stopped.
Holding it slightly longer (longer than Time 1, but shorter than Time 1+2): Drive run-
ning. Drive stops when the button is released.
Long holding (release after Time 1+2 runs out): Drive moves independently to the end
position. The movement can be interrupted by a short tap.
