1INTRODUCTION
1.1 SECUREL v3
Securel v3 from Zennio is an actuator with KNX Secure presented as a secure system
for closing and opening doors of access-controlled rooms.
Uses two types of communications to connect with access control devices:
Encrypted serial channel communication. This type of communication
requires a pairing process which will be explained below.
KNX bus communication. In order to ensure secure communications
between both devices, group addresses configured with KNX security
must be used.
For detailed information about the functionality and the configuration of the
KNX Secure, please refer to the specific manual “Security KNX”available in
the Securel v3 product section at the Zennio website (www.zennio.com).
In order to know the type of communication allowed by the access control module to be
used together with Securel v3, please consult the specific manual of each device.
The most notable features of Securel v3 are:
Acting on electric strike using semiconductor element.
Encrypted serial communication with the access control device for door
opening.
KNX communication with the access control device via a KNX secure
object.
Configuration of the door opening time.
LEDs indicator of device status.
Manual control of opening door.
Door opening locking.
Heartbeat or periodical “still-alive” notification.

1.2 ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM
The following figure shows an example of the main elements involved in an access
control system and the interactions between them:
Figure 1. Access control system elements.
IWAC Display v3 (In-Wall Access Control): device with NFC reader that is
installed outside the room for access controlling. The opening orders will be
transmitted to Securel v3 by encrypted serial channel.
IWAC Out (In-Wall Access Control Out): KNX secure device with NFC reader
to be installed outdoors, to control access to a room. The opening orders will
be transmitted to Securel v3 by KNX bus. Although not mandatory, it is highly
recommended to set KNX secure for this communication.
Securel v3: final element acting on the lock when granting access from
access management modules.
In the idle state, Securel v3 will keep the electric strike locked to prevent the
door opening. When the access is granted from management module,
Securel v3 will release the lock for a while to open the door.
BMS (Building Management System): computer system that assumes the
integral automation of the building.
Z-Access: application that allows employees to record access cards. In
addition, by means of a specific module of the BMS system, permits the joint

1.3 INSTALLATION
Securel v3 connects to the KNX bus through the on-board KNX connector. Once the
device is provided with power from the KNX bus, both the individual address and the
associated application programme may be downloaded.
Figure 1. Securel v3. Elements.
The elements are described next:
Pairing button (1): provided that the serial channel is enabled, a long press
(longer than three seconds) will activate the pairing mode.
Auxiliary power supply (3): slots for the connection of external 24VDC
power supply.
Electric strike output (4): output ports for the insertion of the electric strike.
Encrypted communication (5): transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) terminals
through which the encrypted communication between Securel v3 and access
control module is established.

Figure 2. Access Control System connection diagram.
It should be recalled that, to ensure the inviolability of the access control
system, in the case of serial communication with the access control module, it
is necessary to locate the Securel v3 inside the room of the management
module.
Manual control button (7): button for direct control of the output during the
installation process. See section 2.2.
Test/Prog. Push button (8): a short press on this button sets the device into
the programming mode.
Note: if this button is held while plugging the device into the KNX bus, the
device will enter into safe mode. Once the device enters into safe mode, a
long press (10 seconds) reset the device to factory defaults.

1.4 START-UP AND POWER LOSS
The different performances that Securel v3 will have facing several possible situations
during its operation are explained below.
Default status:
In the factory default state, Securel v3 is in pairing mode. This way, Securel
v3 will automatically pair with the first access control module connected to it
via serial communication.
Status after programming:
If Securel v3 was paired keeps the pairing and the relay will not carry out
any action on the lock until a first order is received from the access control
module.
If Securel v3 was not paired remains in pairing mode.
Status after bus failure:
A KNX bus power failure does not imply any change in the device status
because Securel v3 has external power supply. It will continue to operate
normally (although, logically, it will not send objects to the bus).
Status after power failure:
When a power failure occurs, the electric strike is no longer powered and
closes.
When recovering from the power failure, Securel v3 keeps the pairing and
the relay will not carry out any action on the lock until a new order is
received from the access control module.

2CONFIGURATION
After importing the corresponding database in ETS and adding the device into the
topology of the desired project, the configuration process begins by entering
Parameters tab of the device.
2.1 GENERAL
The only parameterizable screen available is “General”. All device functions can be
configured from this screen.
ETS PARAMETERISATION
Figure 2. General.
Relay Configuration:
➢Opening Time [10…30…150] [x0,1s]: time the lock remains open after
receiving the opening command. The maximum recommended opening
time will depend on the lock type.

➢Heartbeat (Periodical Alive Notification) [disabled/enabled]:
incorporates a one-bit object to the project (“[Heartbeat] Object to Send
‘1’”) that will be sent periodically with a value of “1” to notify that the device
is still working (still alive).
Figure 3. Heartbeat.
Note: The first sending after download or bus failure takes place with
a delay of up to 255 seconds, to prevent bus overload. The following
sendings match the period set.
➢Manual Control [enabled/disabled]: enables or disables the “Manual
Control” tab on the left menu. See section 2.1.1 for more details.
2.1.1 DOOR OPENING OBJECT
Securel v3 features a KNX object for door opening.
The access control module (for example, IWAC Out in the diagram in Figure 2),
through this object, will send opening commands to the Securel v3 that will trigger
timed closures of the relay (i.e. the opening of the door and its subsequent closing after
the opening time. See section 2.1).
Although the KNX door opening object can be associated with a non-secure group
address, to ensure the inviolability of the system, setting it as a secure object is highly
recommended, which will require, that the control device object (e.g., IWAC Out) is also
secure. For detailed information about the functionality and the configuration of the
KNX Secure, please refer to the specific manual “Security KNX” available in the
Securel v3 product section at the Zennio website (www.zennio.com).
Additionally, the door opening by object can be locked or unlocked at operating time.
As long as the lock is active, opening commands received through this object will be
ignored.

ETS PARAMETERISATION
The opening object is configured from the “General”tab (see section 2.1) and the
following parameters are available:
Figure 4. Opening Object - Configuration
Opening Object [disabled/enabled]: enables the “[Access] Open Door”
one-bit object, which activates the door opening.
Important: To ensure the inviolability of the system, this object should be
associated with a group address configured as secure.
➢Value [0/1]: value to be sent to trigger the door opening.
Opening Object Lock [disabled/enabled]: enables the 1-bit object “[Access]
Lock Opening Object” which locks the action of the opening object
(“[Access] Open Door”).
➢Lock Object Polarity [0 = Unlock; 1 = Lock / 0 = Lock; 1 = Unlock]:
defines the value to send to lock/unlock the door opening via object.
➢State After Download [Unlock / Lock]: defines whether, after an ETS
download, door opening through object is to be initiated locked or
unlocked.
2.1.2 SERIAL CHANNEL
The serial channel is the channel through which communication will be established
between Securel v3 and the access management module that has such direct
communication, e.g. IWAC Display v3. For such communication to be possible, the
serial channel must be enabled and both devices must be paired. The purpose of the
Securel v3

Technical Support: https://support.zennio.com
13
pairing is to ensure that the communication between these devices is exclusive, i.e.,
that Securel v3 only responds to door opening commands from the access control
module to which is paired.
To pair a Securel v3 with an access control device:
If Securel v3 has not been paired with any device before, it will be in pairing
mode. Only connect the Securel v3 to the device desired to pair with and they
will be automatically paired.
If Securel v3 is paired, press the “PAIR” button for three seconds to remove
the pairing. Securel v3 is then in pairing mode. Connect the Securel v3 to the
device desired to pair with and they will be automatically paired.
Figure 5. Securel v3 –Physical button.
For more information of the LED status during pairing, see section 1.3.
Notes:
Whenever Securel v3 is not paired, it will try to get paired by keeping the
pairing mode active.
While Securel v3 is in pairing mode no action can be performed in the output
on the serial channel.
Additionally, the serial channel can be locked at operating time so that any door
opening command transmitted from the access control module will be ignored while the
serial channel is locked.

2.2 MANUAL CONTROL
Securel v3 enables manual control of the door opening through the “LOCK” button (see
Figure 5) on the top of the device.
Manual operation can be done in two different ways, named as Test On mode (for
testing purposes during the configuration of the device) and Test Off mode (for a
normal use, anytime). Whether both, only one, or none of these modes should be
accessible needs to be parameterised in ETS. Moreover, it is possible to enable a
specific binary object for locking and unlocking the manual control in runtime.
Notes:
The Test Off mode will be active (unless it has been disabled by parameter)
after a download or a reset with no need of a specific activation –the
pushbutton will respond to user presses from the start.
On the contrary, switching to the Test On mode (unless disabled by
parameter) needs to be done by long-pressing the Prog/Test button (for at
least three seconds), until the LED is no longer red and turns yellow. From
that moment, once the button is released, the LED light will remain green to
confirm that the device has switched from the Test Off mode to the Test On
mode. After that, an additional press will turn the LED yellow and then off,
once the button is released. This way, the device leaves the Test On mode.
Note that it will also leave this mode if a power failure takes place or if a
manual control lock is sending from KNX bus.
Test Off Mode
Under the Test Off Mode, the door opening can be controlled not only through the
communication object or serial channel, but also using the physical “LOCK” button
located on the top of the device.
Pressing the button will cause the door opening for the parameterized time, as if the
command had been received through the corresponding communication object.
In Test Off mode, pressing will have no effect if the opening object is disabled by
parameter or locked by object.

16
Test On Mode
After entering the Test On mode, it will only be possible to control the door opening
through the on-board “LOCK” pushbutton. Orders received through communication
objects will be ignored.
The action on the “LOCK”button will cause the door opening during the time it is
pressed. Releasing the button will release the relay, causing the door to close.
As described previously if the device is in Test On mode, any command sent from the
KNX bus to the actuator will not affect the door opening (only periodically timed objects
such as Heartbeat will continue to be sent to the bus) while Test ON mode is active.
However, in the case of the “Lock”objects, although in Test ON mode the actions
received by each object are not taken into account, the evaluation of their status is
carried out when exiting this mode, so that any change in the alarm status or blocking
of the outputs while Test ON mode is active is taken into account when exiting this
mode and is updated with the last status detected.
Important: the device is delivered from factory with all the outputs disabled, and with
both manual modes (Test Off and Test On) enabled.
ETS PARAMETERISATION
The Manual Control, enabled by default in section 2.1, is configured from the
“Configuration”tab itself under “Manual Control”.
Figure 7. Manual Control
The only two parameters are:
Manual Control [Disabled / Only Test Off Mode / Only Test On Mode / Test
Off Mode + Test On Mode]. Depending on the selection, the device will permit
using the manual control under the Test Off, the Test On, or both modes.
Note that, as stated before, using the Test Off mode does not require any

17
special action, while switching to the Test On mode does require long-
pressing the Prog/Test button.
Manual Control Lock [disabled/enabled]: unless the above parameter has
been “Disabled”, the Lock Manual Control parameter provides an optional
procedure for locking the manual control in runtime. When this checkbox is
enabled, object “Lock Manual Control” turns visible, as well as two more
parameters:
➢Value [0 = Unlock; 1 = Lock / 0 = Lock; 1 = Unlock]: defines whether the
manual control lock/unlock should take place respectively upon the
reception (through the aforementioned object) of values “0” and “1”, or the
opposite.
➢State After Reset [Unlocked / Locked / Last Value]: sets how the lock
state of the manual control should remain after the device start-up (after an
ETS download or a power failure). “Last Value” on the very first start-up,
this will be “Unlocked”.
