8-fold binary input
INPUTS
Description
The Ekinex® EK-CA1-TP binary input has 8 independent input channels for
connecting to the KNX bus commands and sensors of traditional type, having
potential-free contacts. Thanks to the binary input, it is possible to command and
control bus functions with standard switches, pushbuttons or sensors (not natively
communicating with the KNX bus) or binary signals made available by other devices.
The query voltage of input channels is produced within the device. The device
integrates a KNX bus communication module and is realized for mounting on a
standard 35 mm DIN-rail. The device is supplied by the KNX bus and does not require
auxiliary power supply.
