myTEM SmartHome MTBAS-100-FT myTEM FT Base Modul
The FT Base Modul is used to expand your smart home system with products from
the myTEM Free Topology range, for example, the FT DIN SIX, the FT Switch
Dual, the FT Switch Dimmer, or the FT RGBW Modul.
The FT Base Modul is connected to the CAN bus from the Smart Server or Radio
Server, while the Free Topology products are connected via the CFT bus. The
Free Topology products can be integrated with the extremely powerful system
ProgTool. Further information can be found on our website: www.mytem-

Product description
The FT Base Modul is used to expand your smart home system with products from
the myTEM Free Topology range, for example, the FT DIN SIX (reading of digital
and analog signals), the FT Switch Dual (two relays for motors, switches,
etc.), the FT Switch Dimmer (dimming of lights) or the FT RGBW Modul (control
of RGBW lights).
The FT Base Modul is powered with 24 VDC and the CAN bus is connected to a
Smart Server or Radio Server. The myTEM Free Topology products are connected
via the CFT bus.
Applications:
- Central interface between system Smart Home and myTEM Free Topology devices.
- Wiring according to the tree topology. The device has two independent CFT bus interfaces (e.g. wiring of the first and second floor).
- The CFT terminals each have four connection points for distribution to other devices. These terminals can be pulled upwards for easy replacement of the device.
- Operation via the central server
Functions
- Supply voltage device 24 VDC ± 10%
- CAN bus for communication to the Smart Server or Radio Server. Several FT Base Modules are possible on the CAN bus, e.g. for separately wiring different floors or apartments.
- Two independent CFT (Free Topology) buses with 4- pole push-in support terminals for further wiring.
- Up to 50 FT devices can be connected per CFT bus.
- The CFT buses use free wiring according to the tree topology as indicated in the picture below. The total length of the lines can be up to 500 m.
Installation
WARNING Depending on national safety standards, only authorized and/or
trained technicians may be allowed to make electrical installations on the
power supply. Please inform yourself about the legal situation before
installation.
WARNING The system FT Base Modul shall be installed in a control cabinet
in compliance with relevant national safety standards.
WARNING The device shall be connected according to the wiring diagram
only.
WARNING To avoid electrical shock and/or equipment damage, disconnect
power to the main fuse or circuit breaker before installation or maintenance.
Prevent the fuse from being accidentally switched on again and check that the
system is de-energized. Please install the device according to the following
steps:
-
For your safety, switch off the mains voltage (break fuse) during installation. Make sure that wires are not short-circuited during and after installation, as this may damage the device.
-
Connect the device according to the circuit diagram of the system ProgTool or the terminal assignment from the picture below. In order to use the device, a connection via the CAN bus to a Smart Server or Radio Server is required.
-
CAUTION The device shall only be operated with stabilized power supplies (24 VDC). Connecting to higher voltages will damage the device. Use up to 2.5 mm² wires for supply and the CAN bus, stripped by 7 mm.
-
Use solid wires (Ø0.8 mm) for the CFT bus and ground (GND), stripped by 5 to 6 mm. Insert the conductors until they hit the backstop.
-
Check the wiring and then switch on the mains voltage.
-
Include the device with the system ProgTool to the server.
NOTE: To release a wire from the push-in terminal, hold it firmly and
pull it out of the terminal by simultaneously twisting it back and forth
.
LED display
The LED next to the antenna may show the following states:
LED green: Device started and connection to Smart Server or Radio Server
working The device started but no connection to the Smart Server or Radio
Server Device not powered, not started, or broken
LED red:
LED off:
Quick troubleshooting
The following hints may help solve trouble:
- Make sure that the power supply is connected with the correct polarity. With the wrong polarity, the device does not start.
- Make sure that the voltage has not dropped below the allowed operating voltage.
- If a device cannot establish communication to the Smart Server or the Radio Server, check if the CAN bus (+/–) is correctly wired and the ground (GND) is connected. A missing ground connection (usually available via power supply) can affect the communication.
- If a device cannot establish communication to the Smart Server or the Radio Server, check whether the terminating resistor of 120 at the last device is connected to the CAN bus. If missing, please add it via terminals (CAN +/–).
