GAMMA instabus Technical Product Information May 2009 AP 421/3 IR wall switch, double, titanium white 5WG1 421-3AB13 Product and Applications Description Example of Operation S 450 Installation notes 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 receiverdecoder, which transposes them into corresponding bus telegrams. Thus the IR wall switch can send e.g. commands to actuators for defined on/off switching or dimming of lamps, or for moving Venetian blinds up/down or moving their slats. The IR wall switch is powered by two batteries of type Alkaline (LR03/AAA; 1,5V). 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. Note The batteries (Alkaline LR03/AAA, 1,5V) are not included and have to be sourced separately.
