Disabling / enabling constant-lighting control:
Except in response to receiving a telegram relating to the "Switch Light
× Input", "Light × Input Dimming Level" and "Dim Light × Input" ob-
jects, constant-lighting control can be disabled via the bus at any time
via the "Disable Light Output" object and also re-enabled at any time
via this object.
4. Switching mode
In "switching mode", non-dimmable lighting is only switched ON and
OFF via switching telegrams (this being the equivalent of "two-point
light-level control"). When movement is detected, lighting is switched
ON as soon as the level of light falls below the configured basic light-
level threshold and switched OFF when movement is no longer de-
tected or when it is no longer needed because daylight is sufficient for
illuminating the room. The light-level threshold can either be set via a
parameter or via a communication object. A parameter can be used
for selecting whether to use only one switchable lighting group for il-
luminating the room or whether to provide as many as two switchable
lighting groups. The "switched mode", i.e. two-point light-level control,
can be disabled and enabled via the "Disable Photo-Cell Controller"
object. And in just the same way as this, the "switched mode" is also
overridden and disabled by the receipt of a "Switch light × input" tel-
egram as well as automatically re-enabled when no person remains
in the room.
5. IR remote controls
RC6 and RC7 are available as accessories for the motion detector. The
Smart Remote can also be used as an option. The "User" IR remote
control is used for switching ON/OFF and for turning light up or dim-
ming it down. The "Program" IR remote control can be used by service
personnel whenever necessary to calibrate light-level measurement,
change a number of detector parameters, also without using the ETS,
as well as to start and end a test mode. Parameters changed via IR
remote control can be read via the bus.
Program remote control RC6 KNX EAN no.: 4007841 593018.
User remote control RC7 KNX EAN no.: 4007841 592912.
Steinel SmartRemote EAN no.: 4007841009151 is also available as a
unidirectional IR interface for the KNX detectors.
6. Test mode
ETS or any enabled IR remote control for service purposes can be
used for activating and deactivating the presence detector's "move-
ment test mode" or "lighting test mode".
"Movement test mode" is used for checking the detection zone. Any
movement detected is indicated by brief flashing of the red light-emit-
ting diode integrated in the presence detector. Communication objects
are not sent during the movement test mode.
"Movement test mode" is used for checking light-level control. To do
this, the detector must have been configured via ETS and its objects
linked with the objects of the buttons and actuators for lighting control.
In the lighting test mode, the red light-emitting diode integrated in the
presence detector briefly flashes to indicate any movement detected.
For the duration of this test mode and irrespective of the parameters
selected for the presence detector, the stay-ON time for lighting is set
to 8 seconds, with light-level control and remote control also being
activated for both types of IR remote control. The "presence detection"
and "HVAC control" functions are deactivated. The associated objects
are not sent.
7. Behaviour after a bus voltage failure and
return as well as on re-starting and downloading
In the event of a bus voltage failure, the motion detector also ceases
to operate as its electronic system is powered by the bus voltage. If
the bus voltage fails, the disable statuses of light-level control, HVAC
output and presence output are saved permanently so they can be
automatically restored when the bus voltage returns. Once the bus
voltage returns and after completely or partially uploading the product
database to the motion detector via ETS (i.e. after restarting), the mo-
Application description for 3000-series sensors
tion detector is disabled for between 10 and 40 seconds depending
on version. Lighting is switched ON at the start of the disabling time
and switched OFF for approx. 2 seconds at the end of the disabling
time. From then on, the detector is ready for operation and sends the
latest telegrams to the lighting and HVAC control system as well as to
any room surveillance system (movement) provided the relevant out-
puts were not disabled before the bus voltage failed.
8. Behaviour after initial start-up and unloading
When installing a brand-new motion detector, it automatically goes
into "movement test mode" as soon as the bus voltage is applied.
In this mode, the red LED integrated in the motion detector flashes
to indicate any movement detected. This shows that bus voltage is
being applied to the detector and that it is in working order. However,
light-level control is deactivated and no telegrams can be sent. If the
motion detector's application program is "unloaded" via ETS, the pres-
ence detector automatically goes into "movement test mode" in just
the same way as it does after initial start-up.
9. Communication objects
A full list of the communication objects provided for the motion detec-
tor is shown below. Which of these are visible and capable of being
linked with group addresses are determined both via the "Detector
Mode" parameter setting in the "General Settings" parameter window
as well as via further parameter settings for chosen functions and
communication objects.
Maximum number of group addresses: 250
Maximum number of assignments: 250
