Hi
The counter for the situation this group adress changed regularly, ie on 254 off 0, but the status of home control menu sounds, round off to the on and off for On.What can I do on this?

To restate the problem, your counter feedback from KNX is 255 for ON and 0 for Off. However, you control menu feedback is giving the reverse state, ie it says OFF when it should say ON and vice versa - Cytech Admin

I am not clear what you are saying
Why is the counter having value 254? If it is a 1 bit object it should be 255 and 0


For counter feedback, 255 will be on and 0 will be off, 254 is announced as a number
What is the UCM/KNX firmeare version? Can you send your cclx file to support@cytech.biz so we can look at it

I see what your problem is
You are saying that the feedback is reversed from what you expect, ON is announced as OFF and vice versa

In the control Menu you have programmed
0 for ON
1 for OFF

The voice menu expects 0 to be off and 1 to be On as this is what is normally associated with 0 (0ff) and 1 (on), so it takes the feedback status words from 0 and 1 keys

Hence if the feedback value is 0, it reads the word programmed for the 0 key
If the counter feedback value is 255 it reads the word programmed for the 1 key

The words can be Up and down, or in and out, or open and closed, not just on and off

I hope this makes it clear

Thanks
