1.Overview
1.1 Overview devices
The manual refers to the following devices: (Order Code respectively printed in bold type):
KAA-8R-10 Universal Actuator 8-fold, 230V AC, 10A.
◎4 Channels for shutter motors up to 600W, Manual control or 8 Channels for switching outputs for ohmic loads up to 2300W.
◎Any supposable mixed form of switching outputs and shutter output possible.
KAA-8R Universal Actuator 8-fold, 230V AC, 16A.
◎4 Channels for shutter motors up to 600W, Manual control or 8 Channels for switching outputs for ohmic loads up to 3680W.
◎Any supposable mixed form of switching outputs and shutter output possible.
1.2 Usage & possible applications
The universal actuator has its field of applications always if you ask flexibility. It can be parameterized as well as an adequate
switching actuator.
Further, there is the possibility of embedding the channel into automatic blocks and activate different scenes. At activation of the
automatic function, absolute position can be approached via 1 Bit object. This function is e.g. very suitable for the start-up of
sunblind positions, which are called via a brightness sensor. Additional weather alarms are parameterize able, which can call
determined functions at the universal actuator.
Additional a manual control of the shutter/blinds can be switched on or off.
Parameterized as switching actuator, the settings switching output and staircase are available. At the configuration switch, all
settings are available which are necessary for a comprehensive parameterization. As well On-/Off-delay, normally opened mode
or normally closed mode, cyclic sending, central function, logical functions as scene function are adjustable. Additional the reset
behavior and the blocking behavior can be set.
Via the staircase function an automatic switch off after a determined time can be adjusted.
1.3 Exemplary Circuit diagrams
1.3.1 Switching actuator
Parameterized as switching actuator, the actuator is connected in the following way:
Illustration 3: Exemplary circuit diagram as 8-fold switching actuator

1.3.2 Mixed mode
Also arbitrary mixed modes are possible, e.g. in the following way:
Illustration 4: Exemplary circuit diagram as switching and shutter actuator
Illustration 5: Overview hardware module (KAA-8R)
1.4 Structure & Handling
The universal actuator (KAA-8) contains of a programming button as well as a programming-LED, which shows a activated
programming button. The universal actuator works with 230V AC. Every channel of the MRDC device contains of a status-LEDs.
The status-LEDs show an active run-up or an active run-down command.
With the buttons left/right you can chose the channel and with the buttons up/down you can move the channel down or up.
The following illustration shows a 8-fold universal actuator:

3
The functionality is the same for all channels. Depending on the hardware module the device contains of up to eight channels.
At the first step, every channel can be selected as not active, Switch/Staircase/switch impulse, heating control with PWM
not active
The channel becomes no more functions allocated. There are no more opportunities to parameterize the channel.
Switch, Staircase, switch impulse, heating control with PWM
Every channel of the pair of channels can be selected individually as switch or staircase switch impulse…etc. at the next,
step.
If the channel is selected as switch, different switching actions can be parameterized. Additional actions, like logic functions
and scene functions, can be parameterized.
If the channel is selected as staircase, a staircase function, which causes an automatic cutout after an adjusted time, can be
parameterized. Additional settings for the adjustment of the staircase function are available. Like switch, staircase function,
you can find corresponding setting when selecting “switch impulse” or “heating control with PWM”. Please find detail
information in Later chapter.

3.2 Channel selection
To operate the universal actuator as switching actuator, at first the each channel, e.g. Channel A, must be selected
as “switching”, “staircase light”,” Switch impulse”...etc. At the next step, for each channel can be selected if the
channel shall operate as switch for different application.

3.3.3 Behavior at locking /unlocking
The central function can be switched on/off for every channel. For switching on this function, you have to choose the option
“active”. By calling the central communication object, all channels with an activated central function are switched on with
their current parameterization. So switch-on delays or staircase functions are still kept.
The locking function gets active, when the corresponding communication object becomes a logical 1 . By sending a
""
logical 0 , the locking function can be deactivated again.""
The parameter Behavior at locking defines an action for the output at activating the locking process.""
There are the setting on, off and no change available.
When the output channel is at the locking state, the manual button operation is invalid.
Note: Locking has the highest priority

The following diagram describes the blocking process. For the “Behavior at locking”, the action on was parameterized and
for the “Behavior at unlocking” the action off was parameterized:
The KNX telegram shows which values are send to the locking object. By sending a logical “1”, the locking function is
activated and the channel is switched on. The locking function is deactivated again by sending a logical “0”. so the channel
is switched off.
Every channel can occupy a certain state as well in case of a bus power breakdown as in case of a bus power return. The
channel can be switched off or on, but also stay in its current state by choosing the parameter “no change”.
To avoid problems in case of a bus power breakdown, you should adjust this parameter very conscientious. Because there
is no controlling possible as long as the bus power is down.

The on-delay causes a delayed switch of the channel. At sending an on-signal to the channel, first the adjusted on delay time
expires and afterwards the channel will be switched on.
The off delay works on the same principle. At sending an off-signal, first the adjusted off delay time expires and afterwards the
channel will be switched off.
Both functions work as well alone as combined. By adjusting “0 seconds” for a delay the function is switched off.
The following diagram describes the combination of on and off delay:
The logic function can be activated with one or two objects. The objects are the inputs of the logic block. Furthermore you can
choose between an AND-function and an OR-function.
When you have activated the logic function, the logic block has to be satisfied before switching the channel. As long as the
logic function is not satisfied, the channel does not react to any signal.

When functions of different groups (e.g. light, heating ) shall be changed simultaneously with only one keystroke, it is practical
to use the scene function. By calling a scene, you can switch the lights to a specific value, drive the shutter to an absolute
position, switch the heating to the day mode and switch the power supply of the sockets on. The telegrams of these functions
can have as well different formats as different values with different meaning (e.g. “0” for switch the lights off and open the
shutters). If there were no scene function, you would have to send a single telegram for every actuator to get the same
function.
The scene function of the switch actuator enables you to connect the channels of the switch actuator to a scene control. For
that, you have to assign the value to the appropriated space (scene A..H). It is possible to program up to 8 scenes per switching
output. When you activate the scene function at the switching output, a new sub menu for the scenes appears at the left drop
down menu. There are settings to activate single scenes, set values and scene numbers and switch the memory function on/off
at this sub menu.
Scenes are activated by receiving their scene numbers at the communication object for the scenes. If the memory function of
the scenes is activated, the current value of the channel will be saved at the called scene number.
The communication objects of the scenes have always the length of 1 byte.
For calling a certain scene, you have to send the value for the scene to the communication object. The value of the scene
number is always one number less than the adjusted scene number. For calling scene 1, you have to send a “0”. “o the scene
numbers have the numbers from 1 to 64, but the values for the scenes only from 0 to 63.
If you want to call scenes by a binary input or another KNX device, you have to set the same number at the calling device as at
the receiving device. The calling device, e.g. a binary input, sends automatically the right value for calling the scene.
There are up to 8 storage options for scenes at every channel.
