5.4.2.3 Room push button
The room push button is used to call up presets for all digitalSTROM devices of the same colour group within a room. The room push button switches and dims all digitalSTROM devices belonging to a room. With 1x, 2x, 3x and 4x click you can call up different presets for the room. This corresponds to the factory settings of the digitalSTROM push button block.
Example 2: Combination between area and room push button
You want to be able to switch/dim two consumers connected separately via digitalSTROM line dimmers simultaneously from each line dimmer (e.g. connected standing lamps).
To do this, configure both digitalSTROM line dimmers as an area push button for the same area (B1).

Please note
Owing to the decentralised logic of the digitalSTROM devices, it is possible that the state of the respective devices is not represented correctly. In the case of area and room push buttons, this may result in no reaction at the first click. If this happens, the button must be pressed again.
Example 3: Additional presets due to additional room push button
If more than 4 presets are required in a room, an additional room push button can then be installed (see chapter
5.3).

Example 4: Fewer clicks due to one additional room push button
Although the 4 presets in a room are enough for the residents, they want to be able to call up each preset with a maximum of 2 clicks.
Then install a second room push button as in example 1. The presets 3 & 4 and 13 & 14 remain unused, however.
Example 5: Dimmed preset with one additional room push button
Different lighting presets are called up in a bathroom with a room push button. The residents would like to be able to use dimmed lighting presets in the bathroom at night.
Then install a second room push button as in example 1 and 2 so that a dimmed light preset can be called up with just one click.
