1INTRODUCTION

1.1 inBOX 24 v2 / inBOX 20 v2

inBOX 24 v2 and inBOX 20 v2 from Zennio are two versatile KNX actuators featuring

two relay outputs (together with four analogue-digital inputs, in the case of inBOX 24

v2) and a variety of functions. Their particularly small size makes them suitable for

installation within mechanism boxes, junction boxes, roller shutter boxes or any other

location where the available space is limited.

The most outstanding features are:

2 relay outputs, configurable as:

➢1 shutter channel (with or without slats), or

➢Up to 2 individual ON/OFF outputs.

4 multi-purpose inputs (only in inBOX 24 v2), configurable as:

➢Temperature probe, either models provided by Zennio or other NTC

temperature probes from other suppliers, being in that case possible to

configure their parameters in ETS.

➢Binary inputs (i.e., pushbuttons, switches, sensors),

➢Motion detectors.

10 customisable, multi-operation logic functions.

4 independent thermostats (only in inBOX 24 v2).

Scene-triggered action control, with an optional delay in the execution.

Master light control (only in inBOX 24 v2) for an easy, out-of-the-box control

of a set of luminaires (or functionally equivalent devices) one of which acts as

a general lamp and the others as secondary lamps.

Manual operation / supervision of the 2 or 4 relay outputs through the on-

board pushbuttons and LEDs.

Heartbeat or periodical “still-alive”notification.

1.2 INSTALLATION

inBOX 24 / 20 v2 connects to the KNX bus through the on-board KNX connector.

Once the device is powered from the KNX bus, both the individual address and the

associated application program may be downloaded.

This device does not need any additional external power since it is entirely powered

through the KNX bus.

Figure 1. inBOX 24 v2. Elements

Note: the above element diagram refers to inBOX 24 v2. It is entirely analogous for

inBOX 20 v2, although the inputs are not available.

The main elements of the device are described next.

Test/Prog. Pushbutton (3): a short press on this button sets the device into

the programming mode, making the associated LED (2) light in red.

Note: if this button is held while plugging the device into the KNX bus, the

device will enter into safe mode. In such case, the LED will blink in red every

0.5 seconds.

Outputs (5): output ports for the insertion of the stripped cables of the

systems being controlled by the actuator (see section 2.3). Please secure the

1. Output status LED.

connection by means of the on-board screws.

Inputs (4): input ports for the insertion of the stripped cables of external

elements such as switches / motion detectors / temperature probes, etc. One

of the two cables of each element needs to be connected to one of the slots

labelled “1” to “4”, while the other cable should be connected to the slot

labelled as “C”. Note that all the external input devices share the “C” slot for

one of the two cables. Please secure the connection by means of the on-

board screws.

To get detailed information about the technical features of this device, as well as on the

installation and security procedures, please refer to the corresponding Datasheet,

bundled with the original package of the device and also available at www.zennio.com.

1.3 START-UP AND POWER LOSS

During the start-up of the device, the Test/Prog. LED will blink in blue colour for a few

seconds before the device is ready. External orders will not be executed during this

time, but afterwards.

Depending on the configuration, some specific actions will also be performed during

the start-up. For example, the integrator can set whether the output channels should

switch to a particular state and whether the device should send certain objects to the

bus after the power recovery. Please consult the next sections of this document for

further details.

On the other hand, when a bus power failure takes place, the device will interrupt any

pending actions, and will save its state so it can be recovered once the power supply is

restored. For safety reasons, the shutter channel will be stopped (i.e., the relays will

open) if a power loss takes place, while the individual outputs will switch to the specific

state configured in ETS (if any).

2CONFIGURATION

2.1 GENERAL

After importing the corresponding database in ETS and adding the device into the

topology of the desired project, the configuration process begins by entering the

Parameters tab of the device.

ETS PARAMETERISATION

From the General screen it is possible to activate/deactivate all the required

functionality.

Figure 2. Default screen

Once activated, Inputs (only on inBOX 24 v2), Outputs, Logic Functions,

Thermostats (only on inBOX 24 v2), Master Light (only on inBOX 24 v2),

Scene Temporisation and Manual Control bring additional tabs to the menu

on the left. These functions and their parameters will be explained in later

sections of this document.

The Manual Control function is enabled by default, and so is the

corresponding configuration tab.

inBOX 24 v2 / inBOX 20 v2

Sending of Indication Objects (0 and 1) on Bus Voltage Recovery: this

parameter lets the integrator activate two new communication objects (“Reset

0” and “Reset 1”), which will be sent to the KNX bus with values “0” and “1”

respectively whenever the device begins operation (for example, after a bus

power failure). It is possible to parameterise a certain delay to this sending (0

to 255 seconds).

Figure 3. Sending of Indication objects on bus voltage recovery

Heartbeat (Periodical Alive Notification): this parameter lets the integrator

incorporate a one-bit object to the project (“[Heartbeat] Object to Send ‘1’”)

that will be sent periodically with value “1” to notify that the device is still

working (still alive).

Figure 4. Heartbeat (Periodical Alive Notification).

Note: The first sending after download or bus failure takes place with a delay

of up to 255 seconds, to prevent bus overload. The following sendings match

the period set.

Show Relay Switches Counter Objects [disabled/enabled]: enables two

communication objects to keep track of the number of switches performed by

each of the relays ("[Relay X] Number of Switches") and the maximum

number of switches carried out in a minute ("[Relay X] Maximum Switches

per Minute").

2.2 INPUTS (ONLY inBOX 24 v2)

inBOX 24 v2 incorporates four analogue/digital inputs, each configurable as a:

Binary Input, for the connection of a pushbutton or a switch/sensor.

Temperature Probe, to connect a temperature sensor from Zennio or NTC

probes from third parties (the latter requires configuring their parameters in

ETS).

Motion Detector, for the connection of a motion detector from Zennio.

Important: older models of the Zennio motion detector (e.g., ZN1IO-DETEC

and ZN1IO-DETEC-N) will not work properly with inBOX 24 v2.

ETS PARAMETERISATION

When Inputs has been activated in the General parameters screen, the following drop-

lists will be available for the selection of the specific functions required.

Figure 5. Inputs - Configuration

All inputs are disabled by default. Depending on the function selected for each input,

additional tabs will be included in the menu on the left.

2.2.1 BINARY INPUT

Please refer to the specific user manual “Binary Inputs”, available in the inBOX 24 v2

2.3 OUTPUTS

The inBOX 24 / 20 v2 actuators incorporate 2 relay outputs, each configurable as a:

Individual binary outputs, which allows an independent control of loads.

Shutter channel, which allow controlling the motion of shutters or blinds.

For detailed information about the functionality and the configuration of the related

parameters, please refer to the following specific manuals, all of them available in the

inBOX 24 / 20 v2 product section at the Zennio homepage (www.zennio.com):

Individual outputs.

Shutter channels.

2.3.1 MANUAL CONTROL

inBOX 24 / 20 v2 allows manually switching the state of its output relays through the

respective pushbuttons on the top of the device. A specific pushbutton is therefore

available per output.

Manual operation can be done in two different ways, named as Test On Mode (for

testing purposes during the configuration of the device) and Test Off Mode (for a

normal use, anytime). Whether both, only one, or none of these modes can be

accessed needs to be parameterised in ETS. Moreover, it is possible to enable a

specific binary object for locking and unlocking the manual control in runtime.

Note:

The Test Off mode will be active (unless it has been disabled by parameter)

after a download or a reset with no need of a specific activation –the

pushbuttons will respond to user presses from the start.

On the contrary, switching to the Test On mode (unless disabled by

parameter) needs to be done by long-pressing the Prog./Test button (for at

least three seconds), until the LED is no longer red and turns yellow. From

that moment, once the button is released, the LED light will remain green to

confirm that the device has switched from the Test Off mode to the Test On
