Product and Applications Description

The AP 421/3 IR wall switch in the design DELTA style is

available with the color titanium white and with a black

cover over the IR diodes.

For wireless control of actuators the AP 421/3 IR wall

switch transmits IR signals that are received by the S 450

IR receiver decoder or a wall switch with IR receiver-

decoder, which transposes them into corresponding bus

telegrams. Thus the IR wall switch can send e.g. com-

mands to actuators for defined on/off switching or dim-

ming of lamps, or for moving Venetian blinds up/down or

moving their slats.

The IR wall switch is powered by two batteries of type Al-

kaline (LR03/AAA; 1,5V).

Note

The batteries (Alkaline LR03/AAA, 1,5V) are not included

and have to be sourced separately.

Application programs

none

Installation notes

V WARNING

• The device must be mounted and commissioned by an

authorised electrician.

• The prevailing safety rules must be heeded.

• For planning and construction of electric installations,

the relevant guidelines, regulations and standards of

the respective country are to be considered.

top depression (1) = ON/UP/BRIGHTER

bottom depression (0) = OFF/DOWN/DARKER

Battery change

The LED flashes for five seconds after a rocker has been

depressed if a battery change is required.

- Dismount the wall switch

- Remove the empty batteries and replace these with

new batteries (Alkaline LR03/AAA, 1,5V)

- NOTE:

Obey the applicable regulations when disposing the

empty batteries.

- Mount the wall switch

- NOTE:

If within two seconds after inserting the batteries the

button below the SIEMENS logo is pressed for five sec-

onds, the wall switch is set to send IR signals immedi-

ately when a button is pressed. In conjunction with the

new S 450 IR receiver decoder swicthing and dimming

commands can be issued faster by the remote. This

setting is active until the next battery change.

Mounting and wiring

Mounting notes

- Take care that the line of sight from the transmission

diodes to the receiver is sufficiently free. Especially, if

persons are standing in front of the device in order to

use it.

- The base plate of the IR-transmitter can be mounted

with screws or optionally with the included double

faced adhesive film.

Mounting of the base plate (Figure 2)

with screws

- Pierce the horizontal or vertical holes (B6) of the base

panel (B4) with a screw-driver or another suitable tool.

- Attach the base panel (B4) with screws respectively

with dowels and screws.

with double faced adhesive tape

- Remove one of the protection films (B9) from the dou-

ble-faced adhesive tape (B8) and stick the tape in the

recesses (B7) on the device's back side.

- Strip off the remaining protection films (B9) and push

the base panel onto a smooth, dustless and greaseless

foundation or the non-transparent foil.

- When installing on transparent material (e.g. glass)

stick the transparent foil (B10) on the transparent ma-

terial.

Mounting the IR wall switch (Figure 3)

- Insert the batteries into the wall switch (B1)

- Select the desired IR transmission channel with the

sliding switches (B12) on the rear side of the wall

switch (B1).

- Hang the device onto the base panel with its upper

side and click it into place at the retaining clamps with

its bottom side to attach the device on the base panel.

- Secure the wall switch with the included latching

screw (B2) against unintentional dismounting.
