  • Page 4: Description

    Description Description The Interface KNX B8-TH has eight binary inputs and two additional sensor inputs for temperature or temperature and air humidity. They are used to integrate signals and values from conventional buttons and sensors into the KNX building bus.
  • Page 5: Technical Specifications

    There are unprotected live components inside the device. • National legal regulations are to be followed. • Ensure that all lines to be assembled are free of voltage and take precautions against accidental switching on.
