1.1 Product Overview The SRC-Ethernet radio receiver is designed for receiving and processing telegrams of Thermokon radio sensors belonging to the EasySens family as well as other devices, transfering measuring values based on the EnOcean standard. By means of this component it is possible to evaluate radio sensors by a PC or by an Ethernet capable controller via the Ethernet (see picture 1).

“Telegram received“ in rider “Adjustments“, the communication between local PC and radio receiver is working smoothly and the sensors can be learned-in to the radio receiver. This is done in the rider “Sensors” (see picture 3-3). Thermokon Sensortechnik GmbH Page 10...
At present, three types are distinguished: Rocker switch, 1 Byte Sensor and 4 Byte Sensor. For example Thermokon window contact SRW01 is a 1 Byte sensor whereas a Thermokon room operating panel SR04PST is a 4 Byte sensor.
Now, the learn-in button on the sensor must be actuated. With a successful receipt of a learn-in telegram, the sensor is allocated to the selected channel. Picture 3-4: Learn mode window Thermokon Sensortechnik GmbH Page 12...
With a radio module the respective button actuated is shown. The meaning respectively the occupancy of the data byte differs from manufacturer to manufacturer. Thus it is indicated in the product specified data sheets. The monitor window is shown in picture 3-5. Thermokon Sensortechnik GmbH Page 13...

The minimum monitor time amounts to 16 minutes, the maximum monitor time is 255 minutes. Attention: Take care of the cyclically sending interval of a sensor (with Thermokon devices it amounts to approx. 15 min as a standard). If the same is greater than the monitor timer, a time error telegram is sent, although the sensor is still sending.
