2.5 Operation

Depending on the device variant, the device consists of up to 6 mechanically separate control
surfaces. The control surfaces are the design covers attached to the device with push button
elements underneath. A distinction is made between the display control surface (1) and the
control surfaces of the push button sensor function (2) (Figure 5).

Function: controller operation (setpoint shift) and menu operation
(2) Push button sensor control surfaces incl. status LEDs.
Function: Any desired push button sensor function or controller operation
The central part of the upper display control surface is transparent, and surrounds the LC
display. This control surface has two actuation pressure points on the left and right. The display
control surface can be used to preset settings for the room temperature controller (setpoint shift)
(see page 18-19). Furthermore, the display buttons can be used to make device settings (see
page 20).
The lower control surfaces are allocated to the push button sensor function. The function of
these rockers can also be configured in the ETS to any desired push button sensor function.
Alternatively it is possible to set operation of the integrated room temperature controller or of the
controller extension. The push button sensor function is an independent function section of the
device with its own parameter blocks in the ETS. Insofar as the control surfaces are to operate
the integrated room temperature controller, the following functions can be parameterised in the
push button configuration: setpoint shift, presence button, operating mode change-over. What is
more, a button-press can be used to activate or deactivate the integrated heating timer, and the
fan level can be changed over manually on a KNX/EIN fan coil actuator.
For a detailed description of all operating functions, please see Chapter 4. of this documentation
(see page 80).
The operation concept of an operating area of the push button sensor function (2) can be
configured in the ETS either as a rocker function or alternatively as a push button function. With
the rocker function, one control surface is divided into two actuation pressure points with the
same basic function. In the push button function either a control surface is divided into 2
functionally separate actuation pressure points (2 buttons), or a control surface is evaluated as
