3 Function

Homematic push buttons are used to control the receivers that they are taught to work with. A single button can be taught to work with one or more components and address them all simultaneously. That means that pressing a single button can execute many different tasks.

The Homematic push button is battery-operated. As such it is highly flexible where mounting and selecting a mounting location are concerned.

The Homematic push button is mounted and removed very easily using screws or adhesive strips. It is compatible with a number of different surfaces including furniture, brick walls, tiles or glass. Holes or slits do not have to be chiselled out of brick walls. The frame supplied with the device can be used for wall mounting. It is also possible to integrate the Homematic push button into existing switches (see sec. 6.4).

4 General system information on Homematic

This device is a part of the Homematic smart home system and works with the bidirectional Homematic wireless protocol.

All devices are delivered in a standard configuration. The functionality of the device can also be configured with a programming device and software. The other resulting functionality and the additional functions that result in the Homematic system in cooperation with other components can be found in the separate configuration instructions or the Homematic System Manual.

All current technical documents and updates are provided under www.Homematic.com.

5 General information on radio operation

The radio transmission is on a non-exclusive transmission path which means that there is a possibility of interference occurring. Other interfering sources can be caused by switching operations, electrical motors or defective electrical devices.

The range of transmission within buildings can greatly deviate from open air distances.

Besides the transmitting power and the reception characteristics of the receiver, environmental influences such as humidity in the vicinity and local structures also play an important role.

Hereby, eQ-3 AG declares that this device conforms with the essential requirements and other installation site as desired conforming with the relevant regulations of directive 1999/5/EG.

The full declaration of conformity is provided under www.Homematic.com.

7.2 Teaching-in

Homematic IP HM-PB-2-WM55-2 - Teaching-in - 1

Please read this section completely before starting with any teaching!

Homematic IP HM-PB-2-WM55-2 - Teaching-in - 2

Before being able to use your device with QIVICON, it has to be taught-in to your QIVICON Home Base.

Therefore, please log-in to „My QIVICON“ at www.qivicon.com/login. There, please select „Add device“ and follow the instructions.

To enable radio components to communicate, they need to be taught-in to one another. To control the Homematic actuators with the push button, proceed as follows:

The push button supports three different modes:

  • Teach mode (teaching HomeMatic components)
  • Configuration mode (for changing push button parameters)
    • Operation mode (normal operation)

Teaching requires that both devices to be connected are put into teach mode. Please see the corresponding manual of the actuator for instructions how to put the device into teach mode.

  • The push button is put into teach mode with the teach button A.
  • The teach button A can be found on the back side of the electronic unit.

A LR03 LR03

- To reach the teach button, you have to hold both sides of the electronic unit and pull it out of the frame.

- Keep a distance of approx. 1 m between the push

button and the actuator.

  • The push button and the actuator have to be put into teach mode at the same time:
  • Keep the push button on both sides of the rocker. Press the teach button A shortly. The configuration mode is indicated with a flashing green device LED.
  • Turn the electronic unit to the front side (see illustration). The arrow on the mounting plate should point upwards. Press the rocker button shortly.

LR03 LR03

• The device LED flashes orange.
- Now, the actuator has to be put into teach mode.
- If teaching of rocker buttons is successful, it is indicated with an illuminated green LED.
- The lower rocker button is defined for the instructions OFF, DOWN or DARKER and the upper rocker button for the instructions ON, UP or

BRIGHTER. Dimming occurs by holding the button pressed.

- If you want to exit configuration mode, press the teach button again.

Homematic IP HM-PB-2-WM55-2 - Teaching-in - 5

If no teaching occurs, teach mode is automatically ended after 20 seconds. If another device is in teach mode, this is taught. If the push button is already taught for a center and therefore is blocked for direct training, it can still be put in configuration mode as described above, the device LED is illuminated in red for 2 seconds after pressing an operating button however. Direct teaching is not possible!

After teaching, in the operation mode simple operating functions are available. The 2 buttons (on a common rocker) can be controlled by pressing up or down (▼) shortly. Pressing up (▲triggers the functions ON, UP or BRIGHTER, pressing down

(▼) triggers the functions OFF, DOWN or DARKER. Switch actuators and dimmers can then be switched ON/OFF. Furthermore, dimming occurs by holding the button pressed and blind actuators move up or down.

7.3 LED flashing sequences and transmission behaviour

The LED's flashing sequences have different meanings:

Flashing sequence Meaning
Min. 2s green LED Teachingg successful
2s red LED Teaching failed
Orange flashing Only rockerr button in teach mode
Brief orange flashing and 2s red or green (depending upon success)Other device in teach mode and rocker button put in teach mode
Short orange/short green flashingSignal is being send/confirmed
Push button in configuration mode and illuminated red with button actuationPush button already taught for center and is therefore blocked from direct teaching

7.4 Resetting to factory status

Hold the teach button A down for at least 5s.

5 s A

The device LED starts to flash slowly in red.

To reset the device, release the teach button briefly and press it again for at least 5s.

The LED starts to flash in red faster while the button is held down.

Releasing the teach button completes the reset procedure and the LED is illuminated red for approx. 3s to confirm the reset operation.

If you want to abort the reset procedure, you can press the teach button briefly again or wait 15s. In either case, the flashing red will stop.

Possible error messages:

If the LED does not start flashing after holding the button down for 5s but is illuminated continuously, the

device cannot be reset! In this case, the encoding is active using a system security key that differs from the key delivered with the system. In order to reset the device, you must use the configuration software of the center for resetting! The procedure is described in the center software instructions. (This error can occur only if you have a center and have taught the device for this center.)
