PTM 215ZE – 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 Pushbutton Transmitter Module

To enter commissioning mode, start by selecting one button contact of PTM 215ZE. Any

contact of PTM 215ZE (A0, A1, B0, B1) can be used. This contact is referred to as ButtonX in

Figure 10 above.

Next, execute the following long-short-long sequence:

1. Press and hold the selected button contact together with the energy bar for more

than 7 seconds before releasing it

2. Press the selected button contact together with the energy bar quickly (hold for less

than 2 seconds)

3. Press and hold the selected button contact together with the energy bar again for

more than 7 seconds before releasing it

Upon detection of this sequence, PTM 215ZE will enter commissioning mode and transmit a

commissioning telegram on the current radio channel.

Sometimes the user might be unsure if PTM 215ZE is operating in normal mode or in com-

missioning mode and if part of the entry sequence into commissioning mode has already

been executed.

PTM 215ZE can always be set into a defined state (normal mode) by shortly (< 7s) pressing

two different buttons one after another. After that, PTM 215ZE will operate in data mode and

the full sequence for commissioning mode entry (long-sort-long) has to be executed to enter

commissioning mode.

5.2 Commissioning Telegram Transmission

PTM 215ZE will transmit a commissioning telegram on the current radio channel immediately

upon entering commissioning mode. This allows teach-in into additional devices without

changing the currently used radio channel.

The default radio channel used by PTM 215ZE is channel 11 (see chapter 3). It can be sub-

sequently adjusted as described in the following chapter.

Whenever a new radio channel is selected, PTM 215ZE will transmit a commissioning tele-

gram on the new radio channel. This enables the receiver to provide feedback to the user to

indicate when PTM 215ZE has reached the correct radio channel (i.e. when the receiver re-

ceives a commissioning telegram from PTM 215ZE on the radio channel the receiver is using).

See chapter 5.5 for a discussion of feedback mechanisms.

The format of PTM 215ZE radio telegrams including commissioning telegrams is described

below.
