3 Description

1. Description

The KNX RF-MSG-DST is a radio actuator for KNX radio (KNX RF). The actuator con­trols one drive (blind, shutter, awning or window). Via an additional connector, another
motor control unit is supplied with power (loop-through function).

The KNX RF-MSG-DST uses the KNX RF S standard.

Functions:

• 1 connection for 230 V-drive (STAK3)

• 1 output 230 V AC (STAK3) for supply of further motor control units

• Reception of the control signal via radio KNX RF

• Retransmitter function (from version 1.1): Forwarding of all received KNX

RF telegrams. These can be received by KNX RF participants with the same
domain address. This allows the range of the KNX RF signal to be increased

• Automatic runtime measurement of the drives for positioning (incl. fault

reporting object)

• Position feedback (movement position, also slat position for shutters)

• Position storage (movement position) via 1-bit object (storage and call-up

e.g. via buttons)

• Scene control for movement position with 16 scenes per drive (also slat

position for shutters)

• Blocking objects and alarm reports have different priorities, so safety

functions always take precedence (e.g. wind block)

• Manual or automatic priority setting via time or communication object

• Brief time limit (movement command blocked) and 2 movement limits

Configuration is made using the KNX software ETS 5. The product file can be down-
loaded from the ETS online catalogue and the Elsner Elektronik website on www.els-

ner-elektronik.de in the “Service” menu.

2. Installation and start-up

2.1. Installation notes

Installation, testing, operational start-up and troubleshooting should
only be performed by an electrician.

DANGER!
Risk to life from live voltage (mains voltage)!

There are unprotected live components within the device.

• VDE regulations and national regulations are to be followed.

• Ensure that all lines to be assembled are free of voltage and take
precautions against accidental switching on.

• Do not use the device if it is damaged.

• Take the device or system out of service and secure it against
unintentional use, if it can be assumed, that risk-free operation is no
longer guaranteed.

The device is only to be used for its intended purpose. Any improper modification or
failure to follow the operating instructions voids any and all warranty and guarantee
claims.

After unpacking the device, check it immediately for possible mechanical damage. If it
has been damaged in transport, inform the supplier immediately.

The device may only be used as a fixed-site installation; that means only when assem­bled and after conclusion of all installation and operational start-up tasks and only in
the surroundings designated for it.

Elsner Elektronik is not liable for any changes in norms and standards which may occur
after publication of these operating instructions.

2.1.1. Safety advice

WARNING!
Risk of injury caused by components moved automatically!

If the wireless connection between the control unit and the wireless
actuator is interrupted, connected devices can no longer be operated.

• For that reason do not connect drives to the wireless actuator which
could be hazardous to human life!

2.2. Notes on wireless equipment

When planning facilities with devices that communicate via radio, adequate radio re­ception must be guaranteed. The range will be limited by legal regulation and struc­tural circumstances. Avoid sources of interference and obstacles between receiver and
transmitter, that could disturb the wireless communication. Those would be for exam­ple:

• Walls and ceilings (especially concrete and solar protection glazing).

• Metal surfaces next to the wireless participants (e. g. aluminium construction
of a conservatory).

• Other wireless devices and powerful local transmitters (e.g. wireless
headphones), which transmit on the same frequency. Please maintain a
minimum distance of 30 cm between wireless transmitters for that reason.

2.3. Connection

The radio module is connected between the appliance and the power supply. It may
only be connected to flexible lines using STAK/STAS connectors. The connectors must
be locked using the locking bow.

Do not expose to continuous sun radiation to avoid overheating.
The housing is not UV-resistant.

• Assembly the device in a protected area (e. g. in
the box for the blinds/marquee/shutters in a construction
profile beneath the roof tiles or in a housing).

Radio actuator KNX RF-MSG-DST • Version:27.06.2018 • Technical changes and errors excepted.

6 Installation and start-up

No water may run along the supply line and device because water

can enter in via the connectors.

• Assembly the device in a protected area (e. g. in
the box for the blinds/marquee/shutters in a construction
profile beneath the roof tiles or in a housing).

• Lay the supply lines out and down from the device.

No vibrations!

• Assemble the device in a place that is free of vibrations.

Radio actuator KNX RF-MSG-DST • Version:27.06.2018 • Technical changes and errors excepted.

8 Installation and start-up

If the device is set up as a retransmitter, it transmits
all received KNX RF telegrams. These can be recei­ved by KNX RF participants with the same domain
address. As a result, the radio range of a KNX RF
system can be increased.

The function must be activated in the ETS in the pro­perty window of the device by ticking the box "Re­transmitter".

2.5. Activate retransmitter function

2.6. Notes on mounting and commissioning

Device must not be exposed to water (rain). This could result in the electronic being
damaged. A relative air humidity of 95% must not be exceeded. Avoid bedewing.

4.3.1. Manual

Position memory for the manual movement can be activated here. The position set
here can be overwritten via a learning object at any time. The memorised position can
be retrieved again at a later time.

For shutters, both the movement and the slat position can be stored.

Use position memory no • yes

4.3.2. Automation – external

The position storage for automatic movement is activated here. The pre-set position
can be overwritten at any time via a learning object. The memorised position can be
retrieved again at a later time. For configuration options, see chapter “Manual” on
page 20.

4.3.3. Scenes

A group address for scenes must be filed in the KNX system to control the scenes.

The input object ‘Channel X: call/save scenes’ of the actuator is linked to this group ad­dress.

A scene is called, then the scene number is communicated to the actuator. The
movement position saved for this scene number in the actuator is then taken.
If the scene saving function is used, then the current movement position is saved for
this scene number in the actuator.

The ‘Scenes’ menu item of the actuator is only shown if ‘Use scenes: yes’ was selected
in the settings for the drive channel. Every drive can have up to 16 scene save
points for movement positions.

Activate a scene save point.

Use scene save point X no • yes

Assign a scene number to the scene save point. Use this scene number to call/save the
movement position stored in the actuator. Make sure that every scene number is used
only once per drive channel.

Scene number 0...127

Radio actuator KNX RF MSG-DST Version: 27.06.2018 • Technical changes and errors excepted.

22 Parameter setting

Set the movement position. If it is allowed to save scenes via the bus, this position only
applies after the ETS download until the first manual saving. Afterwards, the new
movement position saved in the actuator is used.
