Frequently Asked Questions
-
How do you read an existing configuration?
This is a completely different procedure depending on the type of controller.
- For the CTD controllers this goes as follows:
In the SMIII via "File" or "Utilities / Setup / SD card", click on "Recover QDB from SD".
After confirmation you choose the name and location where the file should be saved. The zipped QDB file is then read from the SD card of the CTD and saved. With a positive answer to the question "Unzip and open restored QDB?", All data will then be immediately available. If the data you were still working on was not sent or saved, you will first receive a notification to do so.
- For a CTL controller follow the following procedure:
Because this controller does not yet have a large memory, only limited data can be recovered. Ao the names are abbreviated to 12 characters and serial numbers are not stored anywhere.
The first step is therefore to type in ALL serial numbers via SMII via "File / Modules". These 6-digit serial numbers can be found on every module (DIN rail, switch, detector, etc.). For the SWC0x switches, an extra option was provided to have them send their serial number via “Search for modules”.
When you then click on the "down arrow", you can read all this limited information.
-
Always use the latest software for configuration.
It is always recommended to use the most recent version. This version supports the newest modules and resolves all known bugs.
If, for example, you enter a serial number and the correct module information does not appear, you are likely not working with the most recent software.
A newer version will always be able to open the older files (.QDB) without data loss.
The latest version of the System Manager software, along with the user manual and version history, can be found in the knowledge center.

Function description
With the QWE INP02/230, it is possible to convert existing switches and push buttons into wireless switches and push buttons, provided there is power supply (230V AC).
The QWE INP02/230 can connect up to 2 push buttons or switches (2 separate toggle switches).
This product is ideal for converting existing switches or push buttons into intelligent switches or push buttons that perform Qbus operations (configurable with System Manager III) without any cutting or breaking work.

Installation and wiring
-
Installation
Attention! Ensure that there is no disruption of the wireless connection. Do not mount this product in a metal casing, in direct proximity to metal objects, on, or near the floor.
Disconnect the power supply and install the transmitter in a standard flush-mounted box.
-
Troubleshooting
If the receiver does not respond to this module:
- Check if the wireless connection within the installation is not being disrupted between this module and the QWI/EW.
- Verify the configuration of the QWI/EW and whether the link with this module is still active.
- Ensure that other wireless devices operating at the same frequency or in close proximity are not interfering with the functioning of this product.
-
Connect
Turn off the power supply and mount the transmitter in a standard flush-mounted box.
Attention! Ensure that there is no disruption to the wireless connection. Do not mount this product in a metal housing, in close proximity to metal objects, on, or near the floor.
- If you want to use this module to connect a switch, place the included bridge between L and F. By default, this module operates to control push buttons (jumper not placed).
- Connect the power supply wires and the wires to the switch(es) or push button(s).
- Then follow the steps in System Manager III to link this module to the QWI/EW and further configure it.
SWITCH
The module sends telegrams with each change of the switch.
PUSHBUTTON
The module sends telegrams as long as the switch is pressed (up to a maximum of 36 seconds).

For each wireless module it is important that it is enrolled to the gateway (QWI/EW)
An I/O module receives a code from the QWI/EW, an input module sends its code to the QWI/EW.
When you briefly press a push button, it will send its transmission code and store it in a free place in the QWI. The transmission code is displayed and the key pressed is displayed in green.
However, with this module you can select whether you connect 2 push buttons or 2 long-term contacts to the 2 inputs. If long-lasting contacts are used, a wire bridge between L and F is necessary. A long-term contact can act as “normally open” (The I/O follows the status of the input) or “switch” (the I/O reverses with every change on the input)
If long-term input contacts are used, it is necessary to assign the codes of both inputs with this module! The first learned code will be named as “Input 1”, the second learned code as “Input 2”
