Functions:

• Supply voltage device 24 VDC with 4-pole push-in support terminals for further wiring. The device is working properly even if the supply voltage drops down to 10 VDC.
• Four dimmable, electronic MOSFET outputs (R / G / B  / W) with 2 A per channel, i.e. 48 W per channel with a24 VDC LED supply or 24 W per channel with a 12 VDC LED supply.
• CFT bus with free wiring according to the tree topology as indicated in the picture below.

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. dimensioned so that the voltage drop is lower than 1 Volt.
A cable with 1.5 mm² should therefore not exceed 5 m in length in order to be able to use the maximum drive power.
Use a separate LED supply per FT RGBW Modul. To avoid ground loops, do not connect its ground (GND) to the ground of the FT RGBW Modul.
WARNING! The maximum length of the cables on the output side must not exceed 2 m.
WARNING! Maximum loads must not exceed 2 A for each channel.

1. 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.
2. Connect the device according to the circuit diagram of the myTEM ProgTool or the terminal assignment from the picture below. Use solid wires (Ø0.8 mm) for supply and communication, stripped by 5 to 6 mm. Insert the conductors until they hit the backstop. Use up to 2.5 mm² wires as LED supply, stripped by 6 mm. Connect the 1.0 mm² strands to your loads via terminals, using the orange strand as a power supply for the LED lighting.
3. Check the wiring and then push the device into the flush-mounted box.
4. Switch on the mains voltage and include the device with the myTEM ProgTool in the server.
5. Switch off the mains voltage and fit a cover over the flush-mounted box. When you switch the mains voltage back on again is your device ready.

Product description

The myTEM FT RGBW Modul is used for controlling and dimming 4-colored LED strips or 4-coloured LED bulbs.
The LEDs are no longer switched directly via a (possibly existing light) switch, but from the switch, a signal is sent to the Smart Server or the Radio Server, which in turn controls the FT RGBW Modul. The programmable behavior allows therefore a flexible use in the house.
The myTEM FT RGBW Modul must be powered by a 24 VDC power supply and can control a separately supplied 12 VDC or 24 VDC RGBW LED light. The device is intended for installation in a flush-mounted box, e.g. directly behind the lights.

Applications:

• Switching of 4-coloured LED lights

• Dimming of LED lights

• Wiring according to the tree topology. Supply and communication each have four connection points for distribution to other devices.
  These push-in terminals can be pulled upwards for easy replacement of the device.

• Operation via the central server

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.
WARNING! The device shall be connected according to the wiring diagram only. Covers of the flush-mounted boxes must comply with relevant safety standards.
WARNING! The electrical installation must be protected with a fuse of max. 10 A.
WARNING! The myTEM FT RGBW Modul should be installed in a flush-mounted box (wall, ceiling) in compliance with relevant national safety standards and with a depth of not less than 60 mm.

CAUTION! The myTEM FT RGBW Modul and the LED lighting should be placed close to each other. The crosssection and cable length of the LED supply should be

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.

Quick troubleshooting

The following hints may help solve trouble:

1. Make sure that the power supply is connected with the correct polarity. With the wrong polarity, the device does not start.
2. Make sure that the voltage has not dropped below the allowed operating voltage. The push-in terminals have openings (Test) for test probes.
3. If a device cannot establish communication to the myTEM FT Base Modul, check if the CFT bus (C+/ C–) is correctly wired and the ground (⊥ / GND) is connected. A missing ground connection can affect communication.
