Each base module 10 is further equipped with a (in particular twenty ports) parallel interface 51 and a number of (in particular three) serial interfaces 52. The ports of the parallel Interface 51 are primarily intended to directly address individual inputs 11, load outputs 12 or control outputs 13. Using the parallel interface 51, it is thus possible to design particularly simple and therefore cost-effective bus devices.
- the serial interfaces 52 are primarily used for communication with further, separately controller-controlled function modules of the same bus device (not shown in detail).
- Such functional modules can, for example, address additional inputs 11, load outputs 12 or control outputs 13 or take over separate data transmission, monitoring or display functions.
- Such a function module controls, for example, a sensor (in particular a motion sensor, temperature sensor, etc.) and fulfills the function of a motion detector, an alarm system, etc.
- Another example of such a function module is a data transmission module that is used for communication with a remote control or a mobile radio network , etc., and thus enables remote control of the system 1 and / or the transmission of messages by the system 1.
- a functional module for controlling a display can be provided.

- the "switch type" associated with an input 11 can in principle be defined as a "pushbutton” or "switch.”
- a pulse-like, i. twice change of the input signal E for example OFF -> ON -> OFF
- a simple change of the input signal E is evaluated as a switching command.
- Toggle Several inputs 11 associated with a common load output 12 as “toggle” supply a control signal S which changes state with each pulse-like change of any associated input signal E.
- the "toggle” link of N to the same load output 12 associated inputs 11 is equivalent to the definition of each of these inputs 11 as a "button”.
- the load output 12 associated with "toggle” inputs 11 is "OFF". After activating the system 1, the load output 12 is thus initially switched off in any case.
- Switches Several associated with a common load output 12 as a “changeover switch” inputs 11 provide a control signal S, the state changes with each change of any associated input signal E. This kind of Linkage is equivalent to the definition of all relevant inputs 11 as a “switch.” A load output 12 associated with “toggle switch” inputs 11 is “OFF” in the default state.
- On / off switch If only one single input 11 defined as a "switch” is linked to a load output 12, then the control signal S follows the state of the input signal E.
- the "on / off switch” can be referred to as “opener” or be operated as a "make”, wherein the input signal E and control signal S in the former case in the opposite direction, in the latter case are correlated in the same direction.
- an input 11 can also be defined as a “switch” ("changeover switch” or “on / off switch”) if it is actually connected in the physical installation to a signal transmitter 15 designed as a push-button as a “momentary switch", thus activating or deactivating the associated load output 12 only and as long as the associated signal generator 15 is actuated.
- switch switch
- this type of link is particularly for controlling a horn or a door opener.
- Main switch An input 11 defined as a “main switch” overwrites all other inputs 11 which are linked to the same load output 12. This is preferably not a logical AND operation. Rather, each associated with the "main switch” input 11 load output 12 is placed on restarting the "main switch” in the respective assigned ground state. If z. B. a load output 12, which is otherwise operated only on “toggle switch” or “toggle”, turned off by a "master switch”, it remains after restarting A load output 12 connected to an "on / off switch", on the other hand, follows the state of the "on / off” after the "main switch” is switched on again -Schalters ".
- Locking An input 11 defined as a “lock” forcibly switches off the assigned load output 12 when activated so that the load output 12 can not be activated by any other associated input 11.
- a virtual input can also be linked to a load output 12.
- a virtual input can be addressed for example by a remote control.
- a load output 12 can also be linked to a virtual "always on” or “always off” input.
- Such a linked load output 12 is always switched on or switched off 5 accordingly. This link can only be overwritten by an input 11 defined as a "main switch”.
- Each load output 12 or at least part of the load outputs 12 is preferably assigned a configurable time function.
- the time function optionally acts as a delay circuit in that a switching command generated by a change in an input signal E is only forwarded to the switching element 16 of the load output 12 after a configurable delay time.
- the delay circuit optionally acts unidirectionally, i. only in the case of a switch-on command or only in the case of a switch-off command or bidirectionally, i. when switching on and off.
- the time function acts as a "stairway circuit" in that it automatically resumes a switching state change of the assigned load output 12 after a configurable delay time, in particular automatically switches off the load output 12 again.
- Each control output 13 is preferably permanently assigned to an input 11.
- the voltage applied to this control output 13 control signal K is determined by the status signal Z, which outputs the associated with this input 11 load output 12.
- the control signal K of a control output 13 always reflects the actual neuter switching or fault state of that load output 12 again, which is operated by the associated input 11.
- the control signal K is eg coded such that when the load output 12, the LED lights green, with switched load output 12, the LED is turned off, when detected line break the LED flashes green, and that when detected overload the LED red lights or red flashes.
- each panel module 2a, 2b and power module 3a, 3b, 3c assigned to a partner device.
- a backup copy C of the configuration C of the first-mentioned bus device (reference device) is stored in the configuration memory 53 of the base device 10 of this partner device.
- the partner device is configured to monitor the reference device and, upon detection of a configuration loss, to automatically restore the configuration C of the reference device based on the backup copy C.
- the assignment of a partner device to a panel module 2a, 2b or power module 3a, 3b, 3c is freely selectable in the configuration of the system 1. In this way, any bus device can be replaced without system 1 having to be reconfigured thereby.
- the bus devices and the base modules 10 arranged in these are designed to be moisture-protected for marine use.
- the basic modules 10 are in protection class IP00, the bus devices in protection class IP54.
