Time Control

This button function is used to send a time value (DPT_TimeOfDay). On button press a window is shown where you could pick a time. The time is sent directly after picking it.

You are able to add a Switch Object (1bit) to this function. In this case, the time picker popup window is prompted on long press of button – short press is assigned to switching action. The time interval before showing time control view could be set at “Time interval before showing control view” under More Settings. You could show the current status (ON/OFF) of the connected actuator. The button is adapting state from KNX group address which is entered at entry KNX Address for status indication. This feedback address could be polled – if polling is chosen, KNX Address should be set as readable so that current state could be fetched by the app.
