The Eelectron BI16F01KNX is a 16-channel DIN-rail binary input for KNX, designed for panels that collect a large number of dry contacts: pushbuttons, switches, magnetic door contacts, motion detectors and pulse-emitting meters. Each line can be supervised with a 1.8 kΩ end-of-line resistor so a cut or shorted cable is reported, and the front LED of the affected input flashes; cable runs up to 100 m (328 ft) are supported.

The device is powered from the bus for communication but takes 230 V AC mains for the input scanning stage (under 1 W), and all front LEDs flash if the mains feed is missing. Inside, 16 logic blocks and a per-input pulse counter cover interlocks and metering, and the Virtual Holder logic turns a door contact plus presence detectors into reliable room-occupancy information for hotel guest rooms. It is a practical choice for hospitality, offices and multi-dwelling retrofits where many conventional switches must be integrated.

Key Features

  • 16 dry-contact inputs with on/off, dimming, shutter, scene and sequence functions; short and long press handling
  • Line supervision with 1.8 kΩ (1/8 W) EOL resistor; cable length up to 100 m (328 ft)
  • Input fault shown by flashing LED on that channel; all LEDs flash when the 230 V line voltage is absent
  • Pulse counter available on every input
  • 16 logic blocks with logical, threshold, algebraic and conditional operators; predefined proportional-control and dew-point algorithms
  • Virtual Holder logic for hotel-room presence detection from a door contact and one or more sensors
  • Reading voltage 12 V DC SELV on the input channels
  • 8-module PC-GF DIN housing; 250 group addresses / 250 associations
