However, in this example we want to have specific scenes triggered from BUTTONS 2 and 5. In this switch example the middle button and the left hand side of the switch (BUTTON 1 and 4) are configured in the same way as in example 1. This will also provide the double tap functions the Music Server Zone function block provides.
We then take BUTTON 5 and connect it to the ‘V-’ input on the function block. The right hand side switch buttons are dedicated to music control in the room so we take BUTTON 2 and connect it to the ‘V+’ button on the ‘Music Server zone’ function block as we are using the Loxone Music Server in this example.

To achieve the shading functionality, we take the BUTTON 1 volt free input and connect it to the rooms ‘Automatic Blinds’ function block 'Cu’ input, we then connect BUTTON 4 to the 'Cd’ input on the same function block. This will also turn off all lights with a double tap of the middle button of the TAP-5.
As we want this button to provide scene scroll so we attach it to the ‘+’ input on the lighting controller function block. To achieve this functionality, we need to take the volt free connected to BUTTON 3 (middle button) and attach it to the lighting controller for the room. In this blog we are going to give 3 common switch configuration examples and show how these are achieved in Loxone config. Category and room can be set for each input also.Īs we mentioned previously, there are almost endless possibilities with the TAP switches functionality once connected to Loxone. In this example we have wired a TAP - 5 back to inputs 4 -8 of the Miniserver. Make sure each input is named correctly to avoid any confusion when returning to the config at a later date or if we need to make any amendments. We start by identifying the digital inputs in the Loxone periphery tree that we have the TAP -5 s witch connected to. Accidentally connecting 24V to the 1-Wire sensor will most likely cause irreparable damage to the 1-Wire sensor, so be careful.Ĭonfiguring the TAP switches in Loxone Config tool This requires some careful consideration when wiring as often a single C AT cable will have some cores wired to volt free inputs, some wired back to the 1-Wire extension and some cores used for the 24V DC supply to the switch. The t emperature sensors included in FLY-LOXO2 variation are 1-Wire sensors and therefore are wired back to the Loxone 1-Wire extension. The TAP-5 is numbered as per the picture below. Finally connect the fly leads from the Faradite fly lead PCB to the back of the TAP Volt Free coupler. If you are using 1-wire make sure the terminations are correct at the 1-wire extension as shown below. When using the Faradite TAP Volt Free range with a star wired Loxone system terminate the Cat cable into the terminals that are on the Faradite FLY-LOXO2. Next connect one end of the Faradite fly lead to the Nano DI tree and the other end to the back of the Faradite Volt Free Coupler. Use the Faradite FLY-LOXO1 fly lead to connect to the orange and orange/white wago terminals for powering the TAP Volt Free switch. When using Loxone Tree wiring on a project, connect the Loxone Nano DI Tree device to the tree bus as normal. The diagram below shows the difference between a star and tree topology. If you wish to use the digital inputs on the Nano IO Air please contact Faradite customer support on use the inputs on the Miniserver, Extension, Dimmer Extension, DI Extension you must wire in a star topology, and to use the inputs of the Nano DI Tree you must wire in a tree topology.
Suitable Loxone devices that have 24V digital inputs include the Miniserver, Extension, Dimmer Extension, DI Extension and Nano DI Tree. There are multiple ways in which the TAP range of switches can be wired in to the Loxone system, but essentially the TAP Volt Free range uses 1 digital input per button. This fly lead option has terminals for connection to cat cables and a 1-wire chip means temperature sensing can be achieved by connecting to the Loxone 1-wire extension. The Loxone - Star (Inc 1-wire) is intended for Loxone systems that are star wired back to a central location. The Loxone Nano DI Tree option provides a fly lead that allows for rapid connection of all switch outputs into the Loxone Nano DI Tree device. There are a couple of choices of fly leads when using TAP Volt Free switches with Loxone. This pulse acts as an input into the Loxone system and can then be utilised in Loxone config to provide a nearly endless range of functionality, we will look at the range of functions later in this blog. The Faradite TAP Volt Free switch plate range provides a volt free (dry contact) that pluses for the duration of the button press.
