Applications and devices

 

 

To find more information about RDG2xx room thermostat applications, refer to the Basic Documentation about room thermostats: A6V11545892

The following minimal firmware versions are required on RDG2xx room thermostat devices that they can be integrated into PXC4/5/7 automation stations via KNX PL-Link:

RDG200KN / RDG260KN

V5.6 / Index D and higher

RDG204KN / RDG264KN

V7.4 / Index B and higher

Typical configuration and integration use cases

 

Commercial Building:

  • Coordination / synchronization of user modes between RDG2xx room thermostat devices
  • Integration of room temperature, humidity, air quality, window status, presence, dew point sensor, supply air temperature sensor information
  • Scheduler on PXC4/5/7 automation stations sending resulting HVAC Mode to RDG2xx room thermostat devices
  • Distribution of HVAC Controller Mode, Changeover Mode, Outside Temperature and Clock Synchronization by PXC4/5/7 automation stations
  • Automatic room temperature setpoint H/C shift by system controller for summer / winter compensation
  • Green leaf functionality (reset to optimized setpoints by PXC4/5/7 automation stations)
  • Integration of energy demands based on control outputs into PXC4/5/7 automation stations

 

Managed Residential Building:

  • Keep functionalities local on RDG2xx room thermostat devices (limited access by PXC4/5/7 automation stations due to privacy reasons):
    • Scheduler for room-/apartment usage
    • HVAC Mode and room setpoints
  • Distribution of Changeover Mode, Outside Temperature, and Clock Synchronization by PXC4/5/7 automation stations
  • Automatic room temperature setpoint H/C shift by system controller for summer / winter compensation
  • Integration of dew point sensor and supply air temperature sensor information
  • Integration of energy demands based on control outputs into PXC4/5/7 automation stations

Configuration examples for BACnet object generation

By adding RDG2xxKN devices to your control unit, BACnet objects are generated automatically. To get an impression how many of these BACnet objects need to be considered in the overall system limitation calculation, the following list shows four typical configurations. Keep in mind that KNX PL-Link data points do not count as integration points. For further details, refer to the system limitations in this document "PXC4, PXC5, and PXC7 automation stations".
