4. Locking of functions
The Touch Sensor 2 plus can be locked com-
pletely or partially.
In locked condition, the Touch Sensor 2 plus
displays a ‘lock’ symbol.
5. Room temperature controller
The integrated room temperature controller measures
the room temperature and transmits the correspond-
ing commands to the heating and cooling system in-
stalled.
The reference temperature and the respective control
of the heaters and conditioners depends on the ope-
rating mode of the controller. The selection of the ope-
rating mode is valid for all control circuits.
5.1 Modes of operation
Comfort mode
Reference temperature during the presence
of persons, e.g. 20°C.
Stand-by mode
Lowering of temperature during a brief ab-
sence of persons; on their return, the room
temperature can fast be brought back to the
reference value of the comfort mode.
Night-time operation (‘Economy’)
Reference temperature during the night or
other prolonged periods when a room is not
used so that energy can be saved.
.Frost / heat protection
The frost/heat protection permits energy
savings, for instance, when the windows
are open. The heating is activated only to
such an extent that the heating pipes cannot
freeze in (frost protection); installed cooling
equipment is operated only to such an ex-
tent that the rooms will not be overheated
(heat protection).
Comfort mode extension
The comfort mode extension can be
activated during the night-time opera-
tion or frost/heat protection mode (ex-
or ception: window open), e.g. by de-
pressing the presence key (if program-
med, or by a presence detector, etc.).
The reference temperature of the com-
fort mode is then activated for a preset
time, e.g. 1 hour before the controller
goes back to the original mode of ope-
ration.

5.2 Heating and cooling
Depending on programming the Touch Sensor 2 plus
can be operated for:
The operating modes ‘comfort’, ‘stand-by’ and ‘night-
time’ have independent reference values for ‘heating’
and ‘cooling’ and display these values (see chapter
6.1, ‘Programming mode’).
Information about operation with 2 heating cir-
cuits
The Touch Sensor 2 plus can handle 2 control circuits
– e.g. for rooms with wall-mounted and floor heating
elements with their own temperature sensors. The ex-
ternal temperature sensor is in this case installed e.g.
in the floor.
• The actual temperature displayed in the LCD win-
dow is always the one measured by the internal
sensor.
• For both control circuits, different reference tem-
peratures can be selected for the individual modes
of operation. The selected mode (e.g. ‘Standby’) is
valid however for both control circuits.
• The Touch Sensor 2 plus does not control heaters
and coolers at the same time.
• Key 1 is used for setting only the reference tempe-
rature for the ‘internal’ control circuit.
5.3 Temperature sensor
The Touch Sensor 2 plus measures the temperature
in its immediate vicinity. The air in the room should be
circulating to ensure that the measured value does
correspond to the room temperature.
The following conditions may adversely affect the
control of the temperature:
• covering up the Touch Sensor 2 plus, e.g. in a
cloakroom by coats and jackets;
• covering up the touch sensor by placing furniture
around it (e.g. shelves);
• draught air, e.g. near a door to a cooler corridor;
• direct exposure to sunlight;
• fitting too closely to heating and cooling appli-
ances.
In addition to the internal temperature sensor, the
Touch Sensor 2 plus can also make use of the mea-
sured values supplied by another temperature sen-
sor. If the external temperature sensor is not used for
a second heating circuit or for measuring of the out-
side temperature, the Touch Sensor 2 plus deter-
mines a ‘weighted temperature’ based on the results
from both sensors to compensate for unfavourable lo-
cal conditions.

6. Settings
The room temperature controller is operated with the
left and right contacts of the display (key 1).
The key is pressed con the left,
don the right or
ein the center.
Change reference temperature
In normal operation, the left and right contacts of the
key (c, d) serve to readjust the actual reference tem-
perature. This change is directly active. This change
is invalidated by a change of the operating mode
(manual or time-controlled).
Starting the programming mode
A press on the center of the key (e, "ENTER") switch-
es over after 3 s to the main menu of the programming
mode, if this feature is enabled.
6.1 Settings
Main menu
The main menu (see fold-out page U1) permits the
selection of the controller operating mode. A press on
the the left or the right side of the key (c, d) toggles
between the individual menu items .
During an input, the corresponding symbol flashes; all
other symbols and the temperature / clock display are
off.
A press on the center of the key confirms the selection
(e,"ENTER") or activates the programming menu
(‘level 2’).
Important: Depending on the programming of the
Touch Sensor 2 plus, individual or several adjust-
ments may be disabled and are therefore not acces-
sible.

Contrast setting
Varying lighting conditions may require different con-
trast settings.
The contrast is set in the main menu. Select the „Co
x“ display, depress the center of key 1 for a prolonged
period (e) until the display flashes. The contrast can
now be changed with the left and right side of the key
(contacts c, d). Changes made are directly valid. Af-
ter a long press on the center of the key (e,"EN-
TER"), the display goes back to the normal mode.
Terminating the programming mode
The programming mode ends if any other key is de-
pressed, if there is no actuation at all for 2 minutes or
if another adjustment switching back to normal opera-
tion is made. Changes not ‘confirmed’ will not be
stored (exceptions: reference value shifting and con-
trast setting).
Programming menu
When number is displayed in the main menu, an-
other long press on the center of key 1 (e,"ENTER")
opens the programming menu (see fold-out page U2).
In this menu, the reference temperatures for the ‘com-
fort’, ‘stand-by’ and ‘night operation’ modes can be
changed.
Depending on the program (‘heating’, ‘cooling’, ‘heat-
ing and cooling’), the programming menu shows the
corresponding temperature reference values. The re-
ference values are displayed with their respective
symbol. The illustration (see fold-out page U2) shows
the complete menu sequence for ‘heating’ and ‘cool-
ing’.
Important: Individual or several adjustments may be
locked and are then not accessible.
Changing the temperature reference values
A temperature reference value is changed by select-
ing the corresponding menu step and by a long press
on the center of key 1 (e,"ENTER") until the refer-
ence value displayed starts flashing. The reference
value can now be changed with the left or right side of
the key (contacts c, d). The change of the reference
value must be confirmed by a long press on the center
of the key (e,"ENTER"); the display goes back to the
normal mode.
A change of the ‘comfort’ mode temperature changes
the temperatures of the ‘stand-by’ and ‘night-time’
modes as well.
In combined operation (‘heating’ and ‘cooling’), a
change of the ‘comfort heating’ temperature equally
affects the ‘cooling’ reference values of the ‘comfort’
‘stand-by’ and ‘night-time’ modes.

tion, operating mode, time of day and weekday (small
numbers 1...7 = Mon-Sun) one after another. The
weekdays are selected one by one or in groups (Mon-
Fri, Sat+Sun, Mon-Sun). A press on the key center
(e, "ENTER") after an adjustment calls up the next
setting.
‘Clr’ deletes the selected switching time. This pro-
gram location remains then empty and can be used
for storage of a new setting. Depressing any other key
quits the programming procedure.
6.3 Automatic functions
1The ‘Automatic 1’ and ‘Automatic 2’ control
or functions of the Touch Sensor 2 plus switch
2consumers or shutters depending on tempe-
rature or time.
When the automatic functions work in the timedepen-
dent mode, the switching times can be changed by
the user as for the heating timer. Temperature-depen-
dent functions cannot be changed.
• Number of switching times: 4 (2 per function)
The switching times for the automatic functions can
be set by selecting ‘1’ resp. ‘2’ in the programming
menu and by depressing the center of the upper key
for 1 s.

7. Anti-theft protection
As a protection against theft, the Touch Sensor 2 plus
is provided with an alarm function. An alarm is trans-
mitted ca. 1 s after withdrawing the touch sensor from
the flush-mounted bus coupler insert and can be sig-
nalled on a display or sounded by a siren or similar
device.
The message can also be processed by an EIB alarm
centre as a sabotage message.
8. What’s to be done when .....
... the time of day is no longer displayed?
The Touch Sensor 2 plus must be informed every day
of the exact time. Check the central clock.
... the sensor is to be reprogrammed?
If you want to change the automatic functions or the
switching times, proceed as described under 6). If you
want to change the key function, contact your electri-
cal fitter.
... you want to program other times?
Proceed as described under 6).
... the time of day is not displayed correctly
(e.g. summer / winter time change)?
Check the central clock and correct the time of day, if
necessary.
... the Touch Sensor 2 plus cannot be switched
into the programming mode?
The programming mode is disabled. Contact your
electrical fitter.
... the automatic functions or the heating timer
function are not accessible in the program-
ming menu?
Programming of these features has been disabled.
Contact your electrical fitter.
...’noPA’ is displayed and the Touch Sensor 2
plus executes no functions?
The device must be (re)programmed. Contact your
electrical fitter.
... the Touch Sensor 2 plus is off and other de-
vices do not respond to command inputs
either?
Check the KNX/EIB power supply. Contact your elec-
trical fitter.
... the Touch Sensor always executes the same
function?
The device is disabled state and executes only the
‘emergency function’. Enable the device or check the
programming.
... the room always overheats or cools down too
much?
The Touch Sensor is not properly adapted to the room
conditions. Contact your electrical fitter.
... heating or cooling valves open and close al-
though the room must neither be heated nor
cooled?
This is no defect. When Touch Sensor 2 plus has not
actuated a valve for 24 hours, the valve is briefly
opened and closed.
This valve protection function prevents the valves
from gripping.
