16-gang + 2 Push-button
A push-button module is a special functionality of the Building Automation Framework to realize a simple, but nevertheless comprehensive room-control via a keypad. By an effective multiple configurations of the buttons, up to 7 blinds, 14 dimmable lights and 16 scenes can be operated with 18 individual buttons. Moreover, it is possible to change the lighting of the 16 scenes via the keypad and store them persistently in the controller. The modules are implemented in the BA-Manager as a Composite Module and are fully functional as soon as the settings were implemented and activated in the BA-Manager.
Two scene-hotkeys can be allocated for calling up scenes independent of the current mode. They are designed to enable persons who are not familiar with the push-button modules to utilize room automation (through standard scenes such as base-lighting or room-off).
