Input Module CELLIO KNX

CELLIO KNX binary input is a S-mode KNX modular device for rail mounting for connection to the bus of switches and sensors of conventional type (not communicating natively on the KNX bus) equipped with potential-free contacts. In this way, by means of the binary input is possible to switch and control KNX bus functions with normal switches, pushbuttons and sensors or binary signals made available by other devices. The binary input can be used as follows:

• 8 independent channels, for example for the connection of traditional (not bus) switches or pushbuttons dedicated to the switching on/off of loads; 
• 4 independent channels, for example for the connection of traditional (not bus) pushbuttons for the control of dimmer or motorized drives. 

Each input channel of the device can be programmed for a different function:

• on/off switching of single loads or group of loads;
• detecting the state of signaling contacts (from safety devices, alarms, etc.);
• recalling and saving of scenes;
• sending on the bus of values (1bit, 2bit, 1byte, 2byte);
• switching to forced operating mode (lock);
• counting of impulses and switching cycles.

Each pair of input channels can be furthermore programmed for:

• dimming of lighting devices;
• controlling drives for shading devices (such as shutters, blinds, curtains, etc.).
