Product and Applications Description
The binary input wave AP 261 (Diagram A) is a surface-
mounted radio-controlled sensor. Besides the integrated
reed contact it is also possible to connect and monitor an
external contact. The difference between the binary input
wave AP 261 and the door/window contact wave AP 260
is that the binary input transmits ON/OFF switching
commands instead of Door/Window Open/Closed mes-
sages as the door/window contact does. With these
switching commands all switchable radio-controlled ac-
tuators can be controlled such as switch inserts sys or
universal dimmer inserts sys in connection with push
buttons wave UP 210 as well as the transmitter actuator
230V wave UP 560. Thus the opening and closing of a
door can be used e.g. for lighting control.
The binary input sends a switching command OFF when
the internal or external contact becomes closed and a
switching command ON when the contacts become
opened. The internal contact is closed if the distance be-
tween the sensor (A3) and the magnet (A4) is < 10 mm.
Diagram A
The binary input is supplied with power from a lithium
battery (1/2 AA 3.6V) which is provided with the device.
This battery is rated so that it is only necessary to replace
it approx. every 5 years, even with up to 50 changes in
the switching state per day. If the battery has to be re-
placed, this is indicated by the LED (A1) flashing every
10 s. The battery must then be replaced within a month.
The commissioning of the binary input is carried out
without any additional tools via a push button located at
the front of the device (A2).
The binary input wave AP 261 has two different opera-
tion modes:
Normal function
• Transmitting switching commands via radio
• Reporting the battery status every 24 hours
Special function
• Establishing connections with other radio- controlled
components
• Deleting connections with other radio-controlled compo-
nents
Operation
Once the binary input wave has been installed and
commissioned, a switching telegram is sent each time
the integrated contact or a connected external contact is
opened and closed. Each switching telegram is sent
twice with an interval of one second in order to increase
the reliability of the transmission. To indicate the sending
of a radio telegram, the LED (A1) lights up briefly.

Installation Instructions
Caution:
• The device may be used for interior installations and in
dry rooms only.
• The device may not be opened for warranty reasons.
• Occasionally the transmission range may be influ-
enced by structural conditions (e.g. reinforced con-
crete) or electric / electronic sources of interference.
• Aminimum distance of 1 m must be maintained be-
tween the binary input wave and the relevant receivers.
• Although the radio transmission is carried out in the
safe 868 MHz range, disruptions to the radio transmis-
sion cannot be excluded.
• This product is not suitable for security applications in
professional alarm systems.
Mounting
It is advisable to attach the radio-controlled sensor to the
fixed door/window frame and to attach the magnet to the
movable door or window. The mounting plate (B2) of the
binary input (B1) as well as the magnet (B3) can be fixed
using the supplied adhesive strips or with screws if nec-
essary. When using the adhesive strips the ground must
be clean and non-greasy. It should be ensured that the
SIEMENS markings on the mounting plate and magnet
lie on top of each other as much as possible (Diagram B)
and that the distance (gap) between the mounting plate
and the magnet is at least 3 mm but does not exceed
10 mm. With the magnet at this distance from the binary
input, the internal reed contact is closed.
Diagram B
Before clipping the radio-controlled sensor onto the
mounting plate, the insulating strip (C4) that is inserted in
the battery compartment (C1) on the back of the sensor
must be removed and if necessary an external contact
should be connected.

Connection of an External Contact
An external contact can be connected to the binary input
wave via plug-in terminals (C3) on the rear of the radio-
controlled sensor. The external contact can be con-
nected electrically in series with the reed contact in the
radio-controlled sensor or can be used on its own.
Note: Due to the low voltage and low current levels that
are used for the contact surveillance (to ensure a long
battery life time), only encapsulated contacts as those of
reed relays or measuring relays should be used.
Use internal contact only
Diagram E1 indicates the plug-in terminals of the binary
input in the supplied state. It has been set via the wire
jumper between terminals 3 and 4 that only the internal
contact is used.
Use external contact only
Diagram E2 indicates the terminal assignment when only
an external contact should be used. The internal contact
has been deactivated via the wire jumper between ter-
minals 1 and 2.
Use internal and external contact
Diagram E3 indicates the terminal assignment if the in-
ternal and an external contact should be used together.
The wire jumper is omitted in this case.
Diagram E1 Diagram E2 Diagram E3
Strain relief
The cable can be fixed to the external contact via the
supplied clamping plate (C5). The maximum permitted
diameter of the connecting cable is 5 mm.
Note: The binary input sends a switching command OFF
when the internal contact or an external contact is closed
and an ON switching command when they are opened.

Commissioning
Note
When commissioning a binary input wave, it must be
linked via “learning telegrams” to the KNX radio-
controlled devices which should process its radio tele-
grams. Only those radio-controlled devices which are
able to process a switching command (ON/OFF) can be
connected to a binary input. These devices are e.g. a
universal dimmer insert sys or a switch insert sys in con-

nection with a push button wave, the transmitter actuator
230V wave and the Touch-Manager wave.
Connection via radio
To link (teach in) a binary input wave (F1) to an actuator
such as a universal dimmer insert sys in connection with
a push button wave (F2) or a Touch-Manager wave
(G3), the actuator must first be switched to the special
function “learning mode” (refer to the commissioning in-
structions of the device).
Diagram F
The push button (A2) on the binary input must then be
pressed for approx. 1 s. The LED (A1) flashes for
approx. 3 s if the learning telegrams have been sent.
It can now be tested by opening and closing the internal
contact with the magnet or by operating the external
contact whether the binary input sends a radio telegram
each time (LED A1 lights up briefly) and whether the ra-
dio telegrams have been received and processed cor-
rectly by the devices that are linked via radio.
Deleting a link
If a taught-in device should no longer react to this binary
input, the radio connection should be deleted i.e. re-
taught. When deleting a link, the same process is fol-
lowed as for the connection.
Replacing the Battery
The LED (A1) indicates that the battery needs to be re-
placed by flashing briefly every 10 s. In order to be able
to replace the battery, the radio-controlled sensor must
be removed from its mounting plate. To do so, the lug
(G3) must be pressed down with a tool (e.g. a small
screwdriver (G4)) in the gap between the radio-
controlled sensor (G1) and the mounting plate (G2). You
should then slide the radio-controlled sensor (G1) to the
left over the lug and out of its clamps (G5).
The battery compartment (C1) is located on the under-
side of the radio-controlled sensor. Its housing does not
need to be opened to replace the battery. The correct
polarity should be observed when replacing the battery.
Once the battery has been replaced, the radio-controlled
sensor must be placed onto the mounting plate again, as
shown in Diagram G.
Finally, it should be tested by opening and closing the in-
ternal contact with the magnet or by operating the exter-
nal contact whether the binary input sends a radio tele-
grams each time (LED A1 lights up briefly) and whether
the radio telegrams have been received and processed
correctly by the devices linked via radio. The LED (A1)
should also have stopped flashing at cyclic intervals to
indicate that the battery is low.
