3 Communication objects
3.1
Communication objects per channel
The communication objects appear for every channel in dependence of the respective
parameterization. 10 numbers (0‐9, 10‐19,...) for communication objects are automatically assigned
for every pair of channels. The numeration is consecutive, so the channel pair A/B can only have the
numbers from 0 to 9, the same if they parameterized as grouped channels or unique channels. With
every following channel pair the numbers of the objects increase by 10, even if a channel pair is
disabled. If you choose a channel pair as unique, the channel, which is first in the alphabet, will
become the first 5 numbers and the other one will become the following five numbers (e.g. channel
A‐‐>0‐4 and channel B‐‐>5‐9). The numeration of the channels is always the same, even if some
channels are disabled.
At the plus variant, there are additional objects for the LEDs and the logic blocks. The communication
objects for the logic follow on the objects for the channels. There are up to 12 objects for the logic
function, so 12 numbers are reserved for the logic function, e.g. the numbers from 40 to 51 at an 8‐
fold push button. The communication objects for the LEDs start consequently with the first numbers
after the logic blocks. According to the parameterization, one communication object per LED can be
shown. So there are 9 objects at the plus variant of an 8‐fold push button and one blocking object.
The follow
The following illustration shows the communication objects for the channels. Channel A/B is selected
as "channels grouped" and parameterized as a dimming function. The channels C/D are selected as
"channels unique" thus every channel can become an individual function. Channel C is parameterized
as switching‐function and channel D is parameterized as scene‐function. The channels E/F are also
selected as unique channels. Channel E is parameterized as shutter and channel F as switch with the
sub function "send status". The channels G and H are selected as grouped with a shutter function:
