Product Information
The EnOcean radio wall-transmitter module operates with EnOcean technology,
which functions without batteries. It generates power needed for transmitting
radio signals from mechanical movement when the button is pressed. The
transmission power, reception characteristics, and antenna cannot be altered
due to legal requirements.
Installation Considerations
The radio range of the system can be optimized by selecting an appropriate
installation site considering construction materials that may impact signal
strength.
Product Usage Instructions
Mounting
- Screw the supporting plate onto the wall.
- Peel off the protective film from the adhesive foil.
- Stick the adhesive foil onto the desired surface.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues, refer to the user manual for guidance. Contact a
qualified electrician for assistance if needed.
Activation
To activate the radio module, follow the steps outlined in the user manual.
Ensure the module is securely installed before use.
FAQ
What should I do if the device does not respond?
If the device does not respond, check the power source and ensure proper
installation. Refer to the troubleshooting section of the manual for further
assistance.
Can the transmission power be adjusted?
No, the transmission power, reception characteristics, and antenna settings
cannot be adjusted as per legal requirements.
Safety instructions
Electrical equipment may only be installed and assembled by a qualifi ed
electrician in accordance with the relevant installation standards,
regulations, directives and safety and accident prevention directives of the
country.
Failure to comply with these instructions may result in damage to the device,
fi re or other hazards.
The radio transmission is not suitable for safety or alarm applications.
These instructions are an integral component of the product and must be
retained by the end user.

Function
System information
EnOcean technology works without batteries. It requires the power it needs to
transmit a radio signal from the conversion of the mechanical movement when
the button is pressed.
Due to the legal requirements, the transmission power, reception
characteristics and antenna may not be changed.
The devices may be operated in all EU and EFTA states.
The declaration of conformity can be provided on request.
The radio range between the transmitter and receiver is dependent on various
factors.
The range of the system can be optimised by selecting the best possible
installation site, taking construction features into account (Figure 3):
Table 1: Material penetration
Material | Penetration |
---|---|
Wood, plaster, plasterboard | approx. 90 % |
Brick, press board | approx. 70 % |
Reinforced concrete | approx. 30 % |
Metal, metal grid | approx. 10 % |
Rain, snow | approx. 1 – |
40 %
Correct use
-
Radio transmitter for the transmission of, for example, switching, dimming, blind or scene commands to the radio receiver of the EnOcean radio system.
-
Alternatively, operation via the KNX EnOcean
Gateway and connected KNX actuators/outputs. -
Radio application in acc. with RED 2014/53/EU with particularly low energy consumption.
-
Mounting on wall box in acc. with DIN 49073 or on smooth, flat surfaces with screws or adhesive foil.
-
Only suitable for use in indoor areas, no drip or spray water.
Product characteristics
- Batteryless and maintenance-free device without external power supply.
- Transmission power is obtained from mechanical energy when the button is pressed.
- The number of radio channels is dependent on the rocker used.
- The radio signal is transmitted when a button is pressed and released.
Operation
Operating concept
The operation of the top or bottom push-button operation area is validated
differently for each button.
If single-operation is configured, commands, such as switching ON/OFF, dimming
BRIGHTER/DARKER of lighting, or moving a blind UP/DOWN,are executed
alternately by repeated actuation of the same push-button operation area.
With two-surface operation, the top and bottom push-button operation area is
used as a function pair. The radio module is preconfigured in such a way that,
for example, the upper push-button operation area is used to switch OFF, dim
DARKER or move a blind UP and the bottom area for ON, BRIGHTER or DOWN (Table
2).
Table 2: Example of two-surface operation
Functions | |
---|---|
Operation of the button | Switching/ dimming of lighting |
Control blind
Top:| |
Short press| Switch OFF| Slat adjustment UP
Long press| Call up light scenes|
| Darker dimming| Move blind UP
| Save light scene|
Bottom:| |
Short press| Switch ON| Slat adjustment
DOWN
Long press| Call up light scenes
Brighter dimming
| Move blind DOWN
| Save light scene|
The functions are dependent on the receiver.
Refer to the operating instructions of the actuator/output for additional functions, such as the operation of a stairway light or fan control.
Information for electricians
Assembly
Selecting installation location
A minimum distance between the transmitter and corresponding receiver of about
1 m must be maintained.
A minimum distance to electronic devices which emit high frequency signals
such as computers, electronic transformers or microwave devices of approx. 0.5
m must be maintained.
Mounting on or close to metal surfaces may cause impairment of the function.
Screwing on the supporting plate
- Screw the supporting plate (6) onto a wall box in the right position and mount them directly on the wall using the supplied screw/anchor set.
Ensure that the label “TOP/OBEN” is at the top.
Sticking on the supporting plate
The radio wall-transmitters can be mounted on smooth, flat surfaces, such as
on mobile glass office walls.
The mounting surface is clean, free of grease and offers sufficient support.
- Remove the surplus backing film (8).
- Align the adhesive film (7) and stick onto the mounting surface. In so doing, press the adhesive film on firmly – if necessary, with a suitable aid
- Remove the protective foil (9).
- Align the supporting plate (6) and stick onto the adhesive film. Align the label “TOP/OBEN” to the top. The frame and radio module do not need to be stuck on.
Mounting the radio module on the supporting plate
The supporting plate is fastened to the wall.
-
Place the frame (2) onto the supporting plate (6).
-
Place the EnOcean radio module (3) onto the supporting plate over the locking spigots.
In so doing, observe the labelling in the centre of the module – 0 must be at the top (10) and I at the bottom (11). -
Push the yellow locking pins (5) on the left and right of the radio module upwards/downwards under the locking spigots (1) up to the stop (Figure 4).
The radio is locked onto the supporting plate. -
Place the rocker (4) onto the radio module in the right position and push it on until it engages.
Dismantling the device
- Push the rocker (4) down. On the opposite side, reach under the rocker and pull it off.
- Using a screwdriver, push the yellow locking pins (5) on the left and right of the radio module (3) downwards/upwards.
The radio module is unlocked.
- Remove the radio module and the frame.
Unscrew the supporting plate or release from the adhesive film (7).
Commissioning
The switching, toggling, dimming and blind functions and special functions are
dependent on the taught-in EnOcean radio receiver.
Teaching in the transmitter in the radio receiver
For the receiver to understand the radio telegram of the transmitter, the
receiver must “learn” this radio telegram. One channel of the transmitter can
be taught into any number of receivers. The teach-in operation only leads to
an assignment in the receiver (see operating instructions of the EnOcean radio
receiver).

Troubleshooting
Receiver does not react or only partially reacts Cause 1: Radio range
exceeded. Construction obstacles reduce the range.
Use a radio repeater to increase the range.
Cause 2: When a 1gang rocker is used, the rocker is not located in the
same alignment on the radio module as it was during the teach-in process.
Remove the rocker, turn it through 180° and snap on backon radio module.
Perform a functional test.
