The output of each gate may optionally be configured as 1 bit or 2 x 8 bits Configuration is made using the KNX software ETS. The programme file (format VD2) can be downloaded from the Elsner Elektronik homepage on www.elsner- elektronik.de in the “Service” menu. Technical specifications...
The following standards have been considered for the evaluation of the product in terms of electro magnetic compatibility: Transient emissions: • EN 60730-1:2000 Section EMV (23, 26, H23, H26) (threshold category: B) • EN 50090-2-2:1996-11 + A1:2002-01 (threshold category: B) •...
24 V DC version Fig. 2 1 Slot for cable connection to the rain sensor in the housing cover 2 Tension clamp for voltage supply (24 V DC/20 V AC), suitable for massive conductors of up to 1.5 mm² or conductors with fine wires 3 Opening for the cable for the voltage supply...
The rain sensor must only be operated as stationary system, i.e. only in a fitted state and after completion of all installation and start-up works, and only in the environment intended for this purpose. Elsner Elektronik does not assume any liability for changes in standards after publication of this instruction manual. Location Select an assembly location at the building where precipitation may be collected by the sensor unobstructedly.

Preparing the sensor Fig. 11 The rain sensor cover snaps in on the left and right along the bottom edge (see Fig.). Remove the cover. Proceed carefully, so as not to pull off the wire connecting the PCB in the bottom part with the rain sensor in the cover (soldered cable connection in case of 230 V AC version, cable with plug in case of 24 V DC version).
Fig. 13: Push the housing from above into the fastened mount. The bumps on the mount must snap into the rails in the housing. To remove it, the sensor can be simply pulled upwards out of the mount, against the resistance of the fastening.
