IR signals from various manufacturers to be read, stored and sent. The fields of application are the private residential building up to the office building. The KNX IR linker is connected directly to the building bus system KNX so that the control can be carried out via installed switch programs / visualization.

Electrical voltage! When working on electrical systems and equipment, there is a danger to life and fire! Work on the KNX IR linker may only be carried out by an electrician. Figure 2: Back of the unit 3.1 KNX Port The connection to the KNX bus system is carried out via screw terminals of type Weidmüller BL 5.08 / 02/180 SN OR BX.
The communication object 1 offers a total of 64 memory locations. The KNX IR linker links these storage locations with predefined datapoint types. The KNX IR linker can read and store IR signals. If the KNX IR linker receives a stored IR signal, it sends a KNX command, as shown in the following table.
String 16.000 String This communication object is used for the output of strings on the building bus. Messages about the status of the KNX IR linker are emited. The following scale shows which strings are emited and their meaning. String...

Switch_Dim4 Toggel If a stored IR signal is received at the KNX IR linker and if it is assigned to a dimmer function, the corresponding communication object is executed. One IR signal is required for each increase and decrease. The dimmer modules are always controlled with a stepcode of 100%.
Move Down Lamellen7 Down If a stored IR signal is received at the KNX IR linker and a blind function is assigned to it, the corresponding communication object is executed. The following options are available for operating the blinds: If an IR signal is received for more than 2 seconds, the blind is lowered or raised until an IR signal has been received again or the limit switch has been reached.
6 Teaching and sending IR signals The KNX IR linker can only be operated via the KNX bus or by an IR signal, as shown in the area ERROR! Reference source not found. This section describes the following examples: 1. how an IR signal is taught into the KNX IR linker, 2.
6.2 IR signal triggers KNX command: This is only possible with the scene module IR to KNX. If a stored IR signal is detected, the Receive LED flashes and the KNX IR linker sends out the stored KNX command for the corresponding scene.
7 Installation of the device Please note that the KNX IR linker is placed within range, of the IR devices to be controlled. In this case, disturbing influences, such as, for example, sun radiation, have to be noticed and minimized.
8 Technical Specifications 8.1 Data sheet Technical specifications KNX IR Linker power supply KNX- bus voltage ambient temperature 0 C° bis 45 C° current consumption KNX Bus max. 10mA IR transmission range up to 7m (Free view frontal/ standard receiver)
Operating voltage is applied, KNX IR Linker ready for operation. Receive LED is lit: The KNX IR linker is in the learn state and waits for an IR signal to save it. Receive LED changes from continuous to flashing: During the learn process, a valid IR signal was received and stored.
9 Maintenance and Care Never use caustic agents or solvents for cleaning. The device can be cleaned with a dry cloth from the outside. Otherwise, the device is maintenance-free. No repairs may be carried out in case of damage (for example, by transport or storage). Seite 19 von 22...
