GENERAL DESCRIPTION The radio transmitter device PTM 200C from EnOcean enables the implementation of wireless remote controls without batteries. Power is provided by a built-in electrodynamic power generator. The PTM 200C device serves the 315 MHz air interface protocol of EnOcean. Together with the receiver device RCM 130C, this device can be easily integrated in operation and control units for the implementation of different application specific system solutions. (2) Contact nipples for switch rocker identification (1) Energy bow on both device sides Rotation axis for pushbuttons or switch rocker Figure 1: Electro-dynamic powered radio transmitter device PTM 200C 1.1 Functional Principle A common electro-dynamic energy transducer is actuated by a bow (1), which can be pushed from outside the device by an appropriate push button or switch rocker. When the energy bow is pushed down, electrical energy is created and an RF telegram is transmitted including a 32bit device ID. Releasing the energy bow generates different telegram data, so every PTM telegram contains the information that the bow was pressed or released. “Long” or “Short” push button operation (the time between pushing and releasing the pushbutton) can be easily detected by the receiver. By doing that, applications such as dimming control or blinds control including slat action are simple to implement. In addition, the PTM telegram transmits the operating status of the contact nipples (2) when pressing the bow. This enables the identification of up to 2 appropriate switch rockers or up to 4 pushbuttons. ©EnOcean GmbH, W. Heller Page 4 of 19 PTM 200C User Manual V1.01 1.2 Typical Applications • Building installation • Industrial automation • Consumer electronics Key applications are wall-mounted flat rocker switches with 1 or 2 rockers, as well as handheld remote controls with up to 4 single pushbuttons. Because the RF transmitters are self-powered (no batteries), maintenance-free RF systems are possible. 1.3 Features Overview Power supply: .............................................................

Heller Page 10 of 19 PTM 200C User Manual V1.01 2.2 Contact Nipples Designation With 4 contact nipples, the PTM 200C offers 2 channels with 4 action states each (upper/lower nipple is pressed/released when activating the energy bow). The nipples’ designation is as follows: STATE CHANNEL Figure 10: Contact nipple designation Radio signals of the PTM 200C device are event-controlled (energy bow is pressed/released) with contact nipple code (channel/state) and unique device identification (fixed 32-bit ID). When operating more than one nipple at the same time, note that PTM 200C sends multiplebutton code combinations: • N-message: One or two contact nipples have been pressed when activating the energy generator Æ Message with nipple code and pressed/released event status of the energy bow is sent. • U-message: No contact nipple was pressed when activating the energy generator, or 3 or 4 nipples have been pressed Æ Message with pressed/released event status of the energy bow is sent and the information if either none or more than two nipples have been pressed. Note that it can’t be differentiated if 3 or if 4 nipples have been pressed. Note: Due to the mechanical hysteresis of the energy bow, in most rocker switch device implementations, pressing the rocker sends an N-message and releasing the rocker sends a U-message! ©EnOcean GmbH, W. Heller Page 11 of 19 PTM 200C User Manual V1.01 2.3 PTM 200C Radio Telegram For the transmission of the telemetric signals, EnOcean has defined a new dynamic radio data telegram that is adapted to the individual application. It is optimized to the essential features of energy autarkic radio sensors: • Minimal energy demand • Possibility of operating hundred of senders within the same radio cell • Maximum transmission reliability • Wide transmission range • Easy extensibility • Suitable for uni- and bi-directional communication • Flexibility for adaptation of different data structures and data quantities • Data encryption option 2.3.1 Frequency range The EnOcean PTM200C operates at 315.0 MHz. 2.3.2 Modulation process As modulation process, EnOcean uses incoherent amplitude modulation (ASK). Digital amplitude modulation enables the implementation of very efficient energy-saving transmitters because only the “1”-bits are transferred. At the same interference signal level, the transmission security of the alternative FSK method is identical to that of the ASK method . 2.3.3 Transmission timing The transmission timing of the radio device PTM 200C has been developed to avoid possible collisions with data packages of other EnOcean transmitters as well as disturbances from the environment. With each transmission cycle, at least three identical subtelegrams are transmitted. The transmission of a subtelegram lasts approximately 0.7 ms. To optimize data security, each telegram is repeated twice within about 20 ms, whereas the delay between the second and the third transmission burst is effected at random. If some residual energy is available after transmission of three subtelegrams, up to 2 further subtelegrams are sent. Nominal values: 5 ms 10 ms 0...7,5ms at random Figure 11: PTM 200C radio timing ©EnOcean GmbH, W. Heller Page 12 of 19 PTM 200C User Manual V1.01 2.3.4 Reliable radio transmission within systems operating many sensors The very short telegrams of EnOcean transmitters enable the operating of a large number of transmitters within the same radio cell; the error rate caused by telegram collisions remains extremely low. Statistically viewed, the transmission reliability is still greater than 99.99% in the case of 100 radio sensors that transmit once every minute. This means that even large office buildings and also huge industrial facilities can be equipped with a large number of sensors of this kind of radio technology.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION 3.1 Laying the antenna > 25mm For best performance the antenna cable should be layed as shown in the figure below. ~ 63mm ~ 102mm ~ 42mm Figure 13: Laying the antenna Important note: The distance between antenna foot point and antenna end must be > 25mm The antenna area should be maximized The antenna should be placed at the same height above the ground plane as the rotation axis for the switch rocker (see example below) ©EnOcean GmbH, W. Heller Page 14 of 19 PTM 200C User Manual V1.01 Figure 13: Example of a well suited antenna 3.2 Construction of application specific Switch Rockers For CAD system development support, 3D construction data is available from EnOcean (IGS data). Using this data, the mechanical interface is fixed, and the shape and surface of the rocker(s) can be changed according to requirements. Recommendation for suitable rocker material is Ultradur B 4520 with a surface roughness of min. Ra 1.0 ym. Please note that the rockers should be of nonmetal for best transmission range! Please also avoid plastic materials with conducting ingredients like graphite! 3.3 Device Mounting For mounting the PTM 200C device into an application specific case, the package outline drawings of the device are roughly dimensioned in chapter 1.4. If more detailed dimensioning data of the PTM 200C device case is necessary, 3D construction data is available from EnOcean (IGS data). ©EnOcean GmbH, W. Heller Page 15 of 19 PTM 200C User Manual V1.01 3.4 Transmission Range The main factors that influence the system transmission range are: o Type and location of the antennas of receiver and transmitter o Type of terrain and degree of obstruction of the link path o Sources of interference affecting the receiver o “Dead” spots caused by signal reflections from nearby conductive objects Since the expected transmission range strongly depends on these system conditions, range tests should categorically be performed in early project phases! The following figures for expected transmission range are considered by using a PTM, or STM transmitter device and the RCM radio receiver device with preinstalled whip antenna and may be used as a rough guide only: • • • • • Line-of-sight connections: Typically 30m range in corridors, up to 100m in halls Plasterboard walls / dry wood: Typically 30m range, through max. 5 walls Brick walls / aerated concrete: Typically 20m range, through max. 3 walls Ferroconcrete walls / ceilings: Typically 10m range, through max. 1 ceiling Fire-safety walls, elevator shafts, staircases and supply areas should be considered as screening. The angle at which the transmitted signal hits the wall is very important. The effective wall thickness – and with it the signal attenuation – varies according to this angle. Signals should be transmitted as directly as possible through the wall. Wall niches should be avoided. Other factors restricting transmission range: • • • • Switch mounted on metal surfaces (up to 60% loss of transmission range) Hollow lightweight walls filled with insulating wool on metal foil False ceilings with panels of metal or carbon fiber Lead glass or glass with metal coating, steel furniture The distance between EnOcean receivers and other transmitting devices such as computers, audio and video equipment that also emit high-frequency signals should be at least 1m. A summarized application note to determine the transmission range within buildings is available as download from www.enocean.com. ©EnOcean GmbH, W.
