Functions with commissioning with ETS
The device is configured and commissioned with Engineering Tool Software (ETS) version ETS4
or higher. With the ETS (Engineering Tool Software) the specific parameters and addresses are
assigned appropriately, and downloaded into the device.
The actuator output may be set to one of the following operating modes:
- Normal mode
- 1-level time switch mode
- 2-level time switch mode
- Flashing
Dependent on the selected operating mode, objects for the functions switching, dimming
brighter / darker and dimming value are available for the actuator output.
Furthermore, if required, time-limited switching instead of permanent switching on can be
enabled for each channel via an optional "Night mode" object (e.g. for lighting while cleaning),
if needed with a warning before switching off by multiple switching the output off and on
(flashing).
Dependent on the configuration, additional objects are available for the output channel for the
functions locking and status request.
The following schema shows the named features in a logical overview.

The application program includes optional a switching cycle and operating hours count with
threshold monitoring for each output and an integrated 8-bit scene control, in which each
output can be incorporated into up to 8 scenes.
Behavior on bus voltage failure / recovery
On bus voltage failure the current switching status and dimming values are saved for restora-
tion on bus voltage recovery.
On bus voltage recovery the configured actions are executed and, if applicable, new status
values are reported.
