MAXinBOX 8 Plus
Multi-function actuator with 8 outputs 16A
ZIO-MB8P Technical Documentation
FEATURES
2 different configurable blocks:
Shutter channels (up to 4).
Individual outputs (up to 8).
2-pipe fan coil control (up to 2 units).
Manual output operation with push button and LED
status indicator.
Suitable for capacitive loads, maximum 140 µF.
Logical functions included.
Output timing facilities.
Total data saving on power failure
Size 67 x 90 x 80 mm (4.5 DIN units).
DIN rail unit assembly (EN 50022), with snap fit clamp.
No external power supply required other than the bus.
KNX BCU integrated.
Possibility to connect different phases in adjoining
outputs.
CE directives compliant.
Programming/test button: short button press to set programming
mode. If this button is held while plugging the device into the KNX
bus, it goes into safe mode. If this button is held more than 3
seconds, the device goes into manual mode (test mode)
LED: programming mode indicator (red). When the device goes into
safe mode, it blinks (red) every half second. The manual mode is
indicated by the colour green. During start up (after reset or power
failure) and if the device is not in safe mode, LED blinks in blue for a
few seconds

WIRING AND ASSEMBLY DIAGRAMS
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Installation should only be performed by qualified electricians following applicable regulations on preventing accidents, as
required by law.
Do not connect Mains Voltage (230 V) or any other external voltages to any point of the bus.
Connecting an external voltage might put the entire KNX system at risk.
Make sure during the installation that there is always sufficient insulation between the mains voltage 230V and the bus or
the extension inputs.
Once the device is installed, the output terminal should not be accessible.
The WEEE logo means that this device contains electronic parts and it must be discarded properly following the
instructions of http://zennio.com/weee-regulation.
