Raylogic DIN-F8-KNX
Raylogic DIN-F8-KNX
The Raylogic DIN‑F8‑KNX is a DIN‑rail mounted, eight‑channel analog dimming module, equipped with optional KNX bus integration. It supports 0‑10 V DC or PWM dimming and can switch lighting loads up to 16 A per channel. Designed for scalable, seamless automation, it communicates via Raylogic’s proprietary RAYNET RS‑485 protocol, IP, the GO app, keypads, and integrates with KNX systems controlled via ETS configuration.
