1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 MAXINBOX HOSPITALITY
MAXinBOX Hospitality from Zennio is a versatile KNX multi-function actuator destined
to cover the climate control needs in KNX environments with integrated fan coil units
where both the fan speed and the opening of the water pipe valves are controlled by
relays.
At a glance, the most outstanding features of MAXinBOX Hospitality are:
2 multi-purpose relay outputs, configurable as:
Up to two binary outputs.
Up to one shutter channel.
Note: if a four-pipe fan coil with a three-point valve is configured, these two
outputs are used to control the valve.
2 relay outputs to control one three-point valve or up to two on-off
valves. One of these outputs can also be configured as an additional multipurpose relay output (in this case, for non-capacitive loads) in case it is not
necessary for the fan coil control.
3 relay outputs to control up to three fan levels.
6 multi-purpose inputs, each of them configurable as:
Temperature probe,
Binary input (i.e., pushbuttons, switches, sensors),
Motion detector.
10 customisable, multi-operation logic functions.
Master light control for an easy, out-of-the-box control of a set of luminaires
(or functionally equivalent devices) one of which acts as a general lamp and
the others as secondary lamps.
Manual operation / supervision of the relay outputs through the on-board
pushbuttons and LEDs.
Heartbeat or periodical “still-alive” notification.

1.2 INSTALLATION
MAXinBOX Hospitality connects to the KNX bus through the on-board KNX connector.
Once the device is provided with power from the KNX bus, both the individual address
and the associated application program may be downloaded.
This device does not need any additional external power since it is entirely powered
through the KNX bus.
Figure 1 MAXinBOX Hospitality Elements
The main elements of the device are described next.
Prog./Test Pushbutton (9): a short press on this button sets the device into
the programming mode, making the associated LED (8) light in red.
Note: if this button is held while plugging the device into the KNX bus, the
device will enter into safe mode. In such case, the LED will blink in red every
0.5 seconds.
Outputs (2, 5 and 6): output ports for the insertion of the stripped cables of
the systems being controlled by the actuator (see sections 2.3 and 2.4).
Please secure the connection by means of the on-board screws.

6. Multi-purpose Binary Outputs.

Inputs (1): input ports for the insertion of the stripped cables of external
elements such as switches / motion detectors / temperature probes, etc. One
of the two cables of each element needs to be connected to one of the slots
labelled “1” to “6”, while the other cable should be connected to the slot
labelled as “C”. Note that all the external input devices share the “C” slot for
one of the two cables. Please secure the connection by means of the on-
board screws.
For detailed information about the technical features of the device and for safety
instructions or about the installation process, please refer to the corresponding
Datasheet, bundled with the original package of the device and also available at
www.zennio.com.
1.3 START-UP AND POWER LOSS
During the device start-up, the Prog./Test LED will blink in blue colour for a few
seconds before MAXinBOX Hospitality is ready. External orders will not be executed
during this time, but afterwards.
Depending on the configuration, some specific actions will also be performed during
the start-up. For example, the integrator can set whether the output channels should
switch to a particular state and whether the device should send certain objects to the
bus after the power recovery. Please consult the next sections of this document for
further details.
On the other hand, when a bus power failure takes place, MAXinBOX Hospitality will
interrupt any pending actions, and will save its state so it can be recovered once the
power supply is restored. In addition, the individual outputs will switch to the specific
state configured in parameters.

1.4 STATUS INDICATORS
Each of the outputs of MAXinBOX Hospitality incorporates a light indicator that reflects
its current state.
1.4.1 BINARY AND SHUTTER OUTPUTS
If an output is configured as binary, the LED indicator will only be on while the relay
remains closed; otherwise it remain off.
If configured as a shutter channel, the LED indicator will only remain on while the
shutter is in motion.
Please refer to section 2.3 for details about the relay outputs.
1.4.2 FAN COIL CONTROL OUTPUTS (VALVE / FAN)
Regarding the valve control outputs, the LED indicator of each output will behave
analogously as the LEDs of the binary outputs: it will remain off while the
corresponding valve is closed and on while the corresponding valve is open.
Regarding the fan control outputs, the two LED indicators provide information about
the current fan speed level:
Fan switched off: both LEDs off.
Fan at speed level 1: both LEDs blinking every 1 second.
Fan at speed level 2: both LEDs blinking every 0.5 seconds.
Fan at speed level 3: both LEDs steadily on.
In case less than three different speed levels have been parameterised, the LEDs
will stay steadily on while the fan is at the maximum level (e.g., level 2), and as
described above for the lower levels (e.g., levels 1 and off).
Please refer to section 2.4 for details about the fan coil control outputs.

2 CONFIGURATION
2.1 GENERAL
After importing the corresponding database in ETS and adding the device into the
topology of the desired project, the configuration process begins by entering the
Parameters tab of the device.
ETS PARAMETERISATION
From the “General” tab it is possible to mark/unmark the appropriate checkboxes to
enable the required functionality. The only one active by default is “Manual Control”
(see section 2.7), thus the corresponding tab will also be available from the beginning
in the tab tree on the left.
Figure 2 General screen
Once activated, Inputs, Binary Outputs, Fan Coil, Logical Functions,
Manual Control (enabled by default) and Master Light bring additional tabs
to the menu on the left. These functions and their parameters will be
explained in later sections of this document.
Sending of Indication Objects (0 and 1) on Bus Voltage Recovery: this
parameter lets the integrator activate two new communication objects (“Reset
0” and “Reset 1”), which will be sent to the KNX bus with values “0” and “1”
respectively whenever the device begins operation (for example, after a bus

power failure). It is possible to parameterise a certain delay to this sending (0
to 255 seconds).
Heartbeat (Periodical Alive Notification): lets the integrator incorporate a
one-bit object to the project (“[Heartbeat] Object to Send ‘1’”) that will be
sent periodically with value “1” to notify that the device is still working (still
alive).
Figure 3. Heartbeat (Periodical Alive Notification).
Note: The first sending after download or bus failure takes place with a delay
of up to 255 seconds, to prevent bus overload. The following sendings match
the period set.

2.2 INPUTS
MAXinBOX Hospitality incorporates 6 analogue/digital inputs, each configurable as a:
Binary Input, for the connection of a pushbutton or a switch/sensor.
Temperature Probe, for the connection of a temperature sensor from
Zennio.
Motion Detector, to connect a motion detector (models ZN1IO-DETEC-P
and ZN1IO-DETEC-X from Zennio).
Important: Older models of the Zennio motion detector (e.g., ZN1IO-DETEC
and ZN1IO-DETEC-N) will not work properly with MAXinBOX Hospitality.
2.2.1 BINARY INPUT
Please refer to the “Binary Inputs” user manual, available under the MAXinBOX
Hospitality product section at www.zennio.com.
2.2.2 TEMPERATURE PROBE
Please refer to the “Temperature Probe” user manual, available under the MAXinBOX
Hospitality product section at www.zennio.com.
Note: Please note that this device does not have the option to configure custom NTC
probes.
2.2.3 MOTION DETECTOR
It is possible to connect motion detectors (models ZN1IO-DETEC-P and ZN1IO-
DETEC-X from Zennio) to the input ports of MAXinBOX Hospitality. This brings the
device with the possibility of monitoring motion and presence in the room, as well as
the light level. Depending on the detection, different response actions can be
parameterised.
Please refer to the “Motion Detector” user manual, available under the MAXinBOX
Hospitality product section at www.zennio.com, for detailed information about the
