2.3 Usage & areas of use
The universal interfaces are a special design of the binary inputs. They are used for the flush
mounting behind push-buttons. Universal interfaces contain of the same functions like the binary
input, but additional of a parameterize able LED output. The single Inputs and outputs passed out by
individual connection cables.
2.4 Structure & Handling
The universal interfaces contain of individual connection cables for the each inputs and outputs. The
single connection cables are color-marked (have a look at the assignment plan at the next page). The
programming function can be activated by the programming button. The programming LED indicates
the state, whether the programming function is switched on or off.

2.7 Starting up
After wiring the allocation of the physical address and the parameterization of every channel follow:
(1) Connect the interface with the bus, e.g. MDT USB interface
(2) set bus power up
(3) Press the programming button at the device(red programming LED lights)
(4) Loading of the physical address out of the ETS-Software by using the interface(red LED goes
out, as well this process was completed successful)
(5) Loading of the application, with requested parameterization
(6) Switch the power supply on
(7) If the device is enabled you can test the requested functions(also possible by using the ETS-
Software)

3 Communication objects
3.1 Communication objects per channel
The communication objects appear for every channel in dependence of the respective
parameterization. 10 numbers (0-9, 10-9,…) fo ouiatio ojets ae autoatiall assiged
for every pair of channels. The numeration is consecutive, so the channel pair A/B can only have the
numbers from 0 to 9, the same if they parameterized as grouped channels or unique channels. With
every following channel pair the numbers of the objects increase by 10, even if a channel pair is
disabled. If you choose a channel pair as unique, the channel, which is first in the alphabet, will
become the first 5 numbers and the other one will become the following five numbers (e.g. channel
A-->0-4 and channel B-->5-9). The numeration of the channels is always the same even if some
channels are disabled.
Exceptions of this order are the communication objects for the LED-outputs. These communication
objects have the numbers behind the logic blocks. Also here, the first number after the logic blocks is
for the LED output of channel A, the second for the LED output of channel B and so on.
The communication objects are used for the assignment of the group addresses.
The following illustration shows the communication objects for the channels. Here, channel A/B are
parameterized as grouped with a dual-surface dimming function. Channels C and D are adjusted as
unique channels, so both channels have an individual function. Channel C is adjusted as switch and
channel B as LED output:

If a channel pair is selected as disabled, no objects will be shown. So there are no opportunities for

3.2 Communication objects logic
There are communication objects for the logic function at every universal interface additional to the
communication objects per channel. These objects can be parameterized and shown independent
from the parameterization of the channels. The logic objects have the numbers from 20 at a 4-fold
universal interface and the numbers from 10 at a 2-fold universal interface. The first logic block gets
assigned the first three numbers, so at a 2-fold input from 10 to 12 and at a 4-fold input from 20 to
22. Every following block increases the numbers by 3.
The addressing can be made by using the communication objects for the logic analogous to the
addressing by the channels.
The following communication objects for the logic can be shown:
Figure 5: communication objects logic
If a logic block is disabled, there will no communication objects be shown. Therefore no addressing is
possible. Every binary input contains of 4 logic blocks for which the following objects can be shown:

Table 4: Communication objects –default settings
You can see the default values for the communication objects from the upper chart. According to
requirements the priority of the particular communication objects as well as the flags can be
adjusted by the user. The flags allocates the function of the objects in the programming thereby
stands C for communication, R for Read, W for write, T for transmit and U for update.

4.3 Identical parameter
4.3.1 Blocking object
As well for grouped channels as for unique channels the blocking object can be activated. At the
unique channels one blocking object for every channel can be activated. For grouped channels, you
can activate one blocking object for both channels. The communication object for a channel appears
as soon as it is activated for a channel. At a 4-fold universal interface, there are so up to 4 blocking
objects parameterize able. The corresponding channel of the blocking object is blocked by sending a
logical 1. A blocked channel is not controllable as long as it is blocked. By sending a logical 0, the
channel can be unblocked again.

Table 8: Parameter Channels grouped
By choosing channels as grouped, two channels become one common function. The grouped
function is called dual surface, dual surface dimming, and dual surface shutter. In contrast to the
single surface functions, one action can be performed independent form the other one. One input
performs always one function. The assignment for the inputs can be made individually, so it is
possible to configure which input should for example drive the shutters up and which down.

4.4.1 Dimming
The two-button dimming function (channels grouped) is for controlling dimming actuators by start-

Table 9: Communication objects two-button dimming
When a pair of channels is parameterized as dimming function, two objects are shown. One object
eats to a shot kestoke, the sithig ojet Diig o/off, ad the othe ojet eats to a
log kestoke, the diig ojet diig.
It is possible to parameterize this function as brighter/darker or as darker/brighter. The first function
belongs always to the first input. If you switch this parameter, the function will be switched
automatically.
By choosing the dimming function (channel A/B) as brighter/darker, the function reacts in this way:
A short keystroke at input A switches the lights on. The lights are switched off by a short keystroke at
input B. A long keystroke dims the lights step by step until releasing the long keystroke. The lights are
dimmed brighter at input A and darker at input B. The universal interface starts always with the last
brightness level, before switching off.
The step size is set fixed to 100% at the dual surface dimming. It is a start-stop dimming. that means
the lights are dimmed as long as you hold the button. After releasing the button a stop value is sent,
which stops the dimming process. So you can dim the lights with only one keystroke from 0% to
100% or from 100% to 0%, by pushing the button long enough.

4.4.2 Shutter
The two-button shutter-function triggers shutter actuators, which can drive shutter and blinds.
The following parameters are shown, when a pair of channel is adjusted as shutter function:

If you choose a pair of channels as shutter function, two communication objects will appear for this

The driving object is for moving the shutters up and down. The stop-/blind adjustment object is for
the adjustment of the blinds and additional it stops a running movement of the shutter.
Every shutter actuator controls with a 0-signal the up-movement and with a 1-signal the down
movement. So the universal interface sends these signals to the corresponding driving commands.
From hardware version 2.6 (have a look at the print of the side of the device: RX.X), it is additional
possible to switch the functions for a long and a short keystroke. So it can be chosen whether he
shutter/blinds shall be driven via a long or a short keystroke. The Stop-/Blind adjustment object is
adjusted by the other operating concept.
The Chart shows the correlations between the Stop-/Blind adjustment object and the driving object
for the individual channels:
