The Merten binary input REG-K/4x24 is used to con-
nect conventional 24 V devices (such as door and win-
dow contacts) to the KNX bus.
½Caution:
High voltages can cause damage.
½Risk of fatal injury:
All work carried out on the unit may only be per-
formed by skilled electricians. Observe the re-
gulations valid in the country of use, as well as
the valid KNX guidelines.
½Caution: All the devices that are installed next to
the binary input must be equipped with basic in-
sulation at the very least.
¼Risk of fatal injury from electrical current.
During installation, the safety regulations speci-
fied in DIN VDE 0105 must be observed. The de-
vice may only be installed by skilled electricians.
Otherwise, there is a risk of fire or electrocution
½Caution: If there are any 230 V cables in the vi-
cinity, make sure that the distances to them
specified in the applicable standards and regula-
tions are maintained. The cover of the bus con-
necting terminal must always be mounted.
1Snap onto a 35 x 7.5 mm DIN profile rail which con-
forms to standard DIN EN 50022.
2Connect the bus plug and attach the cover of the
bus connecting terminal.
3Connect the input cables (see figure connection
example)
When the bus voltage is connected and there is a sig-
nal at the input, the corresponding yellow channel sta-
tus display will light up
|The 0 V conductors must be connected to the
device. Inputs E1 to E4 have a common poten-
tial (4 x 0 V).
½Caution: The connection of the potentials inside
the device for binary input REG-K/4x24 is not
suitable for transferring load currents.

General information
You can use this application to program the binary in-
put.
Up to two objects are available for each input.
Group addresses are managed dynamically. Maximum
no. of group addresses and associations: 150.
Application functions
This application offers a wide range of setting options
in order to execute numerous functions with a binary
input and controlled EIB devices (e.g. dimming actua-
tors, switch actuators etc).
Naturally, which function is possible in each individual
case depends on the EIB devices being controlled. The
functions of this application described here can there-
fore only apply to those specific EIB control functions.
Here, only those tabs and parameters which are of re-
levance to these control functions are described.
You will find an overview of all the tabs, parameters
and the related adjustable values in the last section
"Parameters and settings“.
|The following description assumes that push-
buttons are connected to the inputs of the bina-
ry input.
|Adjustable times (staircase timer, ON delay,
OFF delay etc.) are adjusted via the time base
and time factor parameters. The actual time is
calculated by multiplying both values; e.g. time
base 1 second times time factor 3 gives
3 seconds.
If only one of these parameters is shown, no
time adjustment is possible for the parameter
setting selected.
Operating mode
For the input functions, you can select between the
"Make contact" and "Break contact" operating modes.
Additional startup delay of the application
You can start up the application later after the bus vol-
tage has been switched on.
Debounce time
You can set a debounce time.
You can address two actor groups with 1 or 8 bits (1
byte) simultaneously.
With a 1 bit object type, the object value is first inver-
ted with each push-button action, then sent on the
bus, i. e. a "0" becomes a "1", and when the same key
is pushed again, a "1" becomes a "0". The device is
therefore switched on and off alternately. This swit-
ching behaviour is called "toggling". An update or
change to the 1-bit/1-byte object value is possible via
the bus when another sensor switches the actuator
(e .g. via a two-way circuit or a central command). To
prevent "incorrect" toggling, you must load the status
of the actuator ("1" or "0") into the push-button inter-
face. To do this, connect the group address of the se-
cond sensor to the switch/value object of the push-
button interface.
For 1-byte object types, you can set two values, which
are transmitted alternately after each push-button ac-
tion.
Two objects can also be sent in any combination when
the push-button is activated (1 bit / 1 byte).

Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
Per input:
You can address two actuator groups with 1 or 8 bits
simultaneously.
Depending on the parameter settings, one of the follo-
wing will be transmitted via the switch/value object
whenever a key is pressed:
– an ON or OFF telegram
– 1 byte values (0 % - 100 % in levels)
– 1 byte values (0 - 255) infinitely
– two objects, (1 bit / 1 byte) in any combination
sent via the switch/value object.
Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
Per input:
You can use the dimming function for the following:
– dim brighter and darker via one key (single-surface
dimming)
– either dim brighter or darker. You need a second key
(second input) to dim in the other direction (dual-sur-
face dimming).
You can use the corresponding key (input) to switch
the light on or off (press key briefly) or dim it (press key
for a longer period, the parameters for the exact period
can be set). When switching takes place, an ON/OFF
telegram is sent via the switch object. When dimming,
dimming up or dimming down is carried out via the 4-
bit dimming object; the parameters for the dimming
steps can be set. In addition, you can also transmit the
corresponding dimming step cyclically for a period of
time which can be set as required.
Common parameters for single-surface and dual-
surface dimming
Additional parameters for single-surface dimming
You can dim brighter or darker and also switch on or off
using a single key.
The current switching or dimming direction is always
dependent on the previous action, i. e. if switched off,
pressing the key briefly will switch the light on and vice
versa, and if the light has been dimmed up, prolonged
activation of the key will dim the light down again. On
release after prolonged activation, a stop telegram will
be sent via the 4-bit dimming object, thus terminating
the dimming procedure in the dimming actuator.
An update or change to the switch/object value is pos-
sible via the bus when another sensor switches or
dims the actuator (e.g. via a two-way circuit or a central
command). To prevent the "wrong" switching/dimming
activity, you must load the status of the actuator into
the push-button interface. To do this, connect the
group address of the second sensor to the switch/dim-
ming object of the push-button interface.
A single command is sufficient to cycle through the
dimming range. This dimming procedure can be used
for most applications. The other possible dimming
steps (1/2 - 1/64 brighter or darker) dim brighter or dar-
ker by the selected step. For example, to dim from
min. to max. brightness, you would need to push the
key for a prolonged period four times in succession if
the level set is 1/4.

Additional parameters for dual-surface dimming
These are used to dim either brighter or darker and to
either switch on or off using a single key. Therefore,
you must set the parameters for a second key (second
input) for the opposite direction.
You can set whether a stop telegram is to be transmit-
ted when the key is released. When you have enabled
the transmission of a stop telegram, a stop telegram
will be sent via the 4-bit dimming object after prolon-
ged activation of the key, thus terminating the dim-
ming procedure in the dimming actuator.
A single command is sufficient to cycle through the
dimming range. This dimming procedure can be used
for most applications. The other possible dimming
steps (1/2 - 1/64 brighter or darker) dim brighter or dar-
ker by the selected step. For example, to dim from
min. to max. brightness, you would need to push the
key for a prolonged period four times in succession if
the level set is 1/4.

Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
Per input:
You can use the blind control function to do the follo-
wing:
– move the blind using an individual key and adjust
the slats (single-surface blind operation).
– With the blind control function, you can raise the
blinds / adjust the slats using a single key and lower
the blinds / adjust the slats using a second key (dual-
surface blind operation).
– Move the blind to a pre-specified position.
– Move the blind between two previously specified
positions.
Blind control function up or down with one key in
each case (dual-surface blind operation)
After the corresponding key is pressed for a short ti-
me, a stop/step telegram will be transmitted; after the
key is activated for a prolonged period (the parameters
for the exact period can be set), a movement telegram
will be transmitted. With this function, you must set
the parameters for a second key (second input) with
the corresponding settings for the blind movement in
the opposite direction. Both keys (inputs) must be gi-
ven the same group addresses.
Blind control function up or down with a single key
(single-surface blind operation)
The current direction of movement of the blind, or the
direction of the slat adjustment, always depends on
the previous action, i. e. when the blind has just been
moved downwards, it will move upwards the next
time the key is activated for a long period (parameters
for the period can be set).
After a stop/step telegram has been transmitted to ad-
just the slats, a stop/step telegram for the same direc-
tion of movement can be created by pressing the key
again, as long as this subsequent push-button action is
carried out within a time period, the parameters for
which can be set. If this time period has elapsed, the
direction of rotation of the slats will change when the
key is pressed briefly.

The push-button (input) can receive telegrams via the
stop/step movement objects, and can create corres-
ponding telegrams when the key is pressed, depen-
ding on the values received. An update or change to
the switch/object value is possible via the bus when
another sensor switches the actuator (e .g. via a two-
way circuit or a central command). To prevent "incor-
rect" movement, you must load the status of the actu-
ator into the push-button. To do this, connect the
group address of the second sensor to the stop/step
and the movement object of the push-button interface.
Move the blind to a pre-specified position.
If the blind actuator is capable of approaching a speci-
fic position, you can define one or two positions using
this function, which can be approached by the blind
using 1-byte position values with a push-button action.
The position values can be set in steps between 0%
and 100%, or infinitely from 0-255.
When approaching a position, the set value for the
blind position and the slat position is transmitted using
a short (or long) push-button action.
To trigger two positions, enter the required blind posi-
tion and slat position for both. Position value 1 is trans-
mitted with a short push-button action, while position
value 2 is transmitted with a long push-button action.
No movement or stop/step objects exist with these
set parameters.
Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
Per input:
You can use these pulse edge functions to paramete-
rise different object actions. You can transmit one or
two objects simultaneously, and select the size of the
objects required (1 bit, 2 bit priority control, 4 bit or
1 byte in steps or infinitely) as needed. This enables
you to parameterise a large number of application op-
tions.
You can specify which actions should be carried out
when a key is pressed, and which should be carried
out when a key is released. These actions could inclu-
de:
– Transmit 1 or 0 (with 1 bit)
– Transmit value 1 or value 2 (with 2 bits, 4 bits or 1
byte):
You can enter two values and set whether and how
they are to be transmitted.
– Transmitting a value:
The object transmits the value which it has currently
been given. You can therefore transfer a value e. g.
with the transmitting group address which was pre-
viously received by another group address.
– Toggling:
The current object value is inverted and then trans-
mitted. It is therefore switched on and off alternate-
ly (toggled). The value can be modified via the bus.

Normal pulse edge function
With the standard pulse edge function, you can trans-
mit 1 bit, 2 bit, 4 bit priority control or 1 byte in steps
or infinitely.
Principle of the pulse edge function
Using the following diagrams, you can see how the
pulse edge function behaves when pulse edges rise or
fall.
Extended pulse edge function
With the extended pulse edge function, you have a wi-
der range of functions available, e. g. you can set diffe-
rent actions with a shorter or longer activation time,
which apply to both the actions which result when the
key is pressed and when the key is released. You can
also set a cycle time which can be parameterised for
each object.
|When parameterising, bear in mind that you
need to set all four types of key activation (brief/
long, pressing and releasing the key) in order to
ensure that the push-button (input) functions as
required.

A description of the most important actions is given
below:
– transmits [value]:
transmits the current value and stops a cyclical
transmission.
– transmits [value] immediately and then cyclically:
If no cycle time is running, [value] is transmitted im-
mediately and a new cycle time is started. If a cycle
time is already running, this is interrupted, [value] is
transmitted and a new cycle time is started.
– transmits [value] only cyclically:
If no cycle time is running, [value] is transmitted im-
mediately and a new cycle time is started. If a cycle
time is already running, this is not interrupted, [va-
lue] is transmitted after the current cycle time has
elapsed, and a new cycle time is started.
– sets object value to [value] (readable only)
[value] is written into the object and is not transmit-
ted An active cycle time is terminated.
– toggles:
compares the current object value with [value]. If
both are the same, value 1 or value 2 is transmitted.
If both are different, [value] is transmitted.
– toggles, transmits immediately, then cyclically:
The value is toggled (see "toggles") if no cycle time
is running, transmitted immediately and a new cycle
time is started. If a cycle time is already running,
this is interrupted, the toggled value is transmitted
and a new cycle time is started. Subsequently, the
value which has already been toggled is always
transmitted cyclically.
– toggles, only transmits cyclically:
If no cycle time is running, the toggled value is
transmitted immediately and a new cycle time is
started. If a cycle time is already running, this is not
interrupted, the toggled value is transmitted after
the current cycle time has elapsed, and a new cycle
time is started. Subsequently, the value which has
already been toggled is always transmitted cyclical-
ly.
– toggles and is not transmitted:
The toggled value is written into the object and is
not transmitted. An active cycle time is terminated.
– toggles cyclically, transmits immediately, then cycli-
cally:
The value is toggled (see "toggles") if no cycle time
is running, transmitted immediately and a new cycle
time is started. If a cycle time is already running,
this is interrupted, the toggled value is transmitted
and a new cycle time is started. It is always subse-
quently cyclically toggled, and the new value is
transmitted.
– toggles cyclically, only transmits cyclically:
If no cycle time is running, the toggled value is
transmitted immediately and a new cycle time is
started. If a cycle time is already running, this is not
interrupted, the toggled value is transmitted after
the current cycle time has elapsed, and a new cycle
time is started. It is always subsequently cyclically
toggled, and the new value is transmitted.
– toggles cyclically and is not transmitted:
The toggled value is written into the object and is
not transmitted. It is always subsequently cyclically
toggled, and the new value is written into the ob-
ject.
– transmits its value:
The current object value is transmitted. An active cy-
cle time is terminated.
– sends its value immediately and then cyclically:
If no cycle time is running, the current object value
is transmitted immediately and a new cycle time is
started. If a cycle time is already running, this is in-
terrupted, the current object value is transmitted
and a new cycle time is started. Subsequently, the
current object value is always transmitted cyclically.
– increase the current object value by [value] cyclical-
ly:
If no cycle time is running, [value] is added to the
current object value, the object value is transmitted,
and a new cycle time is started. If a cycle time is al-
ready running, this is not interrupted, the current
object value with [value] added is transmitted and a
new cycle time is started.
– reduce the current object value by [value] cyclically:
If no cycle time is running, [value] is subtracted from
the current object value, the object value is trans-
mitted, and a new cycle time is started. If a cycle
time is already running, this is not interrupted, the
current object value with [value] subtracted is trans-
mitted and a new cycle time is started.
– transmits [valueA] and after a cycle time [valueB]:
[ValueA] is transmitted immediately, and [valueB] is
transmitted after one cycle time, regardless of whe-
ther a cycle time is already running or not (staircase
timer function).
– none (stops cyclical transmission):
No action is carried out, and any active cycle time is
stopped.
– no change:
The current action remains unchanged (e. g. "trans-
mits value1 and after a cycle time, transmits
value2").
– none (stop after current cycle time has elapsed):
No action is currently carried out, but any active cy-
cle time is not stopped. It runs through until the
end, and then transmits the corresponding value.

Example: Staircase lighting function with cleaning
lighting function
With a brief push-button action, the switch actuator
switches on the light. A long push-button action ex-
tends the staircase lighting function (= cleaning ligh-
ting function) until a second, long push-button action
switches off the actuator. The switch actuator requires
a staircase lighting function and a disable function for
this function.

Object B: Action on completion of the long activation
time = toggles
To do this, connect object A with the switch object and
object B with the disable object of the switch actuator.
Example: short and long staircase time
You can use this function to produce a brief and a long
staircase time with the push-button. The switch actua-
tor requires no staircase lighting function for this re-
quest.
With a brief push-button action, the switch actuator
switches on the light, and after a parameterised cycle
time (e. g. 3 minutes), it switches it back off again.
With a long push-button action, the same function is
carried out, but with a longer cycle time (e. g. 6 minu-
tes).
Number of objects = 2 (object A/B)
Object A/B = 1 bit
Object A: Action on release before the long activation
time has elapsed = transmits 1. After a cycle time has
elapsed (here 3 minutes) = transmits 0
Object B: Action on release when the long activation
time is completed = transmits 1. After a cycle time has
elapsed (here 6 minutes) = transmits 0
To do this, connect object A and object B with the
switch object of the switch actuator.
Example: Switch the light on/off permanently, or
switch off after a cycle time has elapsed.
With a brief push-button action, the switch actuator
switches the light on or off permanently. With a long
push-button action, the light switches on, and after a
parameterised cycle time (e .g. 6 minutes), it switches
back off again. Due to the cycle time in the push-button
which can be parameterised, the switch actuator re-
quires no staircase lighting function for this function.
Number of objects = 2 (object A/B)
Object A/B = 1 bit
Object A: Action on release before the long activation
time has elapsed = toggles
Object B: Action when the long activation time is com-
pleted = transmits 1. After a cycle time has elapsed
(here 6 minutes) = transmits 0. Action on release
when the long activation time is completed = no
change.
To do this, connect object A and object B with the
switch object of the switch actuator.

Example: electronic protection against theft
This example will show you how to program electronic
protection against theft for the push-button. It is activa-
ted by a brief push-button action and then transmits
cyclically. As soon as the push-button is forcibly sepa-
rated from the push-button interface, this can be
shown on a display, or an alarm can be triggered.
Number of objects = 1 (object A)
Object A = 1 bit
Object A: Action on release before the long activation
time has elapsed = transmits 1 immediately and then
cyclically. Action when the long activation time is com-
pleted = no change. Action on release after the long
activation time is completed = no change. Cycle time
= e. g. 10 minutes
To do this, connect object A with an object which anti-
cipates cyclical telegrams (e. g. a safety object). The
monitoring time set on the safety object must be lon-
ger than the cycle time of the push-button. If the safe-
ty object receives no telegrams from the push-button
during this time, a reaction which can be parameteri-
sed is activated (e. g. the channel is switched on).
Example: Effect lighting
This example shows you how to program effect ligh-
ting, for example for a display window. A long push-
button action switches between two different lighting
scenes. A short push-button action stops the toggling
and transmits a scene (to retrieve the scene, use the
scene module for the actuator which has been activa-
ted) which switches off everything.
Number of objects = 2 (object A/B)
Object A/B = 1 byte infinite 0-255
Object A: Direct action when activated = none (stops
cyclical transmission). Action on release before the
long activation time has elapsed = transmits 1. Action
when the long activation time is completed = none
(stops cyclical transmission). Action on release after
the long activation time is completed = none (stops cy-
clical transmission). Value 1 = 3.
Object B: Direct action when activated = none (stops
cyclical transmission). Action on release before the
long activation time has elapsed = none (stops cyclical
transmission). Action when the long activation time is
completed = none (stops cyclical transmission). Action
on release after the long activation time has been com-
pleted = toggles cyclically, transmits immediately,
then cyclically. Value 1 = 1, value 2 = 2nd cycle time =
e. g. 1 minute.
To do this, connect object A and object B with the ex-
tension unit object of the scene function.

You can also use these pulse edge functions to para-
meterise different object actions. However, in contrast
to pulse edge functions, you can only transmit one ob-
ject with 1 bit, 2 bits, 4 bits or 1 byte.
You can transmit normal or extended pulse edge com-
mands. With normal pulse edge commands, you can
specify which actions should be carried out when a
key is pressed, and which should be carried out when
a key is released. With extended pulse edge com-
mands, you can also set the actions before and after
the long activation time is completed.
You can transmit floating point numbers and whole
numbers, without or without a sign.
Explanation of actions: See 1-bit pulse edges.
Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
You can use the 8-bit linear regulator function to pro-
gram a key (input) as a linear regulator. You can para-
meterise all four actions when pressing/releasing with
a shorter or longer operating time in each case. You
can establish the function with or without limit values
(start/end value).

A description of the actions is given below:
– Transmit the start value, then increase cyclically by
the step value:
If no cycle time is running, the start value is trans-
mitted immediately and a new cycle time is started.
If a cycle time is already running, this is interrupted,
the start value is transmitted and a new cycle time
is started.
– Transmit the end value, then reduce cyclically by the
step value:
If no cycle time is running, the end value is transmit-
ted immediately and a new cycle time is started. If
a cycle time is already running, this is interrupted,
the end value is transmitted and a new cycle time is
started.
– Increase the current object value cyclically:
Increase the current object value cyclically by the
parameterised step interval.
– Increase the current object value once:
Increase the current object value once by the para-
meterised step interval. An active cycle time is ter-
minated.
– Reduce the current object value cyclically:
Reduce the current object value cyclically by the pa-
rameterised step interval.
– Reduce the current object value once:
Reduce the current object value once by the para-
meterised step interval. An active cycle time is ter-
minated.
– Reverse the slide direction and transmit cyclically:
If no cycle time is running, the slide is pushed in the
opposite direction (of this push-button) and a new
cycle time is started. If a cycle time is already run-
ning, it is interrupted, the slide is immediately pu-
shed in the opposite direction (of this push-button)
and a new cycle time is started.
– Move step-by-step to the limit values, and then back
again:
The limit values are approached by one step interval
at a time. When a limit is reached, the slide direction
is reversed for the next action.
– none (stops cyclical transmission):
No action is carried out, and any active cycle time is
stopped.
– no change:
No action is carried out, and any active cycle time is
continued.
|You can only maintain the limit values and the
toggling to a new slide direction by operating on
site!
Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
The scene retrieval function does not access the inter-
nal scene module, but only accesses the bus external-
ly via communication objects.
There are two types of scene function:
–normal
– extended
With the standard scene function, a scene is retrieved
by a brief push-button action while a long push-button
action is used to save a scene. You merely have to set
the time after which a push-button action is identified
as being long, together with the status LED control
and the scene address.
With the extended scene function, a wider range of
functions are available. You can set actions for a shor-
ter or longer activation time for both pressing and re-
leasing the keys. You can also program a cycle time.
Depending on how many objects you have set in the
scene function, you must make the settings in additio-
nal windows ("Input X - object A") or ("Input X - object
B"):

Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
You can use the impulse counter function to cyclically
count the activation of the input within a paramete-
risable time frame and transmit this as a value (2-byte
value object) via the bus. A count can be made up to
65535 (16 bits).
After the time frame has elapsed, the current counter
reading is transmitted, the counter is reset and the
counting process begins again.
The impulse counter can also be reset via another in-
put which is programmed accordingly as a synchro-
nous input.
The current counter reading can be read by setting the
read flag.
|Ensure that the counter reading is not overwrit-
ten via the bus (write flag)!
You can determine whether the count should be made
while the pulse edge is rising or falling, or while it is
both rising and falling.
You can parameterise the cyclic interval using the cyc-
le time base and a cycle time factor (cycle time = cycle
time base x cycle time factor).
Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
You can use the switching counter function to cyclical-
ly count the activation of the input and after a parame-
terisable counter reading, transmit this as a value (2-
byte value object) via the bus. In addition, you can
transmit a switching telegram when the counter rea-
ding is reached.
A count can be made up to 65535 (16 bits).
After the set counter reading is reached, the current
counter reading is transmitted and the counter reading
is reset to 0.
The current counter reading can be read off by setting
the read flag.
|Ensure that the counter reading is not overwrit-
ten via the bus (write flag)!
Additionally, you have the option of transmitting the
counter reading cyclically after an adjustable number
of counting impulses.
You can determine whether the count should be made
while the pulse edge is rising or falling, or while it is
both rising and falling.

You can use the counter reset function to reset the im-
pulse counter and the cycle time or the switching
counter of another input. Additionally, you can use this
function to transmit switching commands.
You can determine whether the count should be reset
while the pulse edge is rising or falling, or while it is
both rising and falling.
Additionally, you can program a switching telegram to
be transmitted when the pulse edge is rising and/or fal-
ling.
Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
You can use the cyclical monitoring function to trans-
mit telegrams cyclically. This is necessary when other
devices are monitoring the presence of the push-but-
ton interface via their cyclical telegrams (protection
against theft, fault monitoring). If no telegram is recei-
ved from the push-button interface within a paramete-
risable time period, e. g. a signal is issued by this
device. For this purpose, you can parameterise the
push-button interface accordingly.
|When a disable function is activated via the
disable object, all current push-button functions
are reset or interrupted.
Communication objects
You can select the following communication objects:
You can block the inputs in two different ways:
1. Separately for each input
2. All inputs function as a master input
You can determine whether a disable object = 0 or = 1
should be blocked.
Separately for each input
You can use this function to block each of the four or
eight inputs individually. When an input is blocked, it
fulfils no function. You can use an additional parameter
to parameterise the behaviour of cyclical functions.
All keys function as a master input
You can use this action to specify one of the two or
four inputs as the master input. When any key is
pressed, the action which has been parameterised for
the master key is carried out.
