Siemens Smart Infrastructure has added two new variants of KNX binary inputs to its portfolio of DIN-rail mounted devices: The new binary inputs N 262 and N 263 offer easy installation and intuitive operation and are available as potential-free and voltage-loaded versions in widths of 4 MU (4 binary inputs) and 8 MU (8 binary inputs).
The new binary inputs can be used to detect switching and system states or to count pulses with threshold monitoring. In addition to switching and dimming lights or controlling blinds, the devices also support sophisticated tasks for multi-discipline applications such as colored light control, logic operations, or differential pulse counting. This makes it possible, for example, to implement an access control solution that detects the current number of persons in a room.
