the lED PB switch lighting can be controlled either by a continuous 28VDC power supply or by 28VDC PwM source. the current consumption is <50 ma.

1) 28vdc power supply mode

H the use of a continuous 28VDC on pins 9 and 4 (pin 4 only for monocase) allows a Bright mode lighting

H the use of a continuous 28VDC on pins 8 and 5 (pin 8 only for monocase) allows a DiM mode lighting

2) 28vdc pWm control mode

the use of a 28 VDC PwM source on pins 9 and 4 (pin 4 only for monocase) allows a full dimage of the lighting by varying the PwM duty cycle. the variation law between the luminance and the duty cycle is linear.

to assemble lED push-button, you require:

Mounting panel cutout

lED push-button laY out

lED push-button Pin out

H a lED push-buttonH a spacer (if used)H a mounting sleeve H a connector module

this procedure requires access to the back of the mounting panel.

SEvERal PREcautionS:

Don’t forget to disconnect all lighting and power of your panel before working on any switch.

Always have in mind that the flex circuit is mechanically attached from the cap shell to the body. So be very cautious in your actions.

To prevent the sealed push-button from being damaged, check that the cap shell is in the “non-compressed” position.

2. using the pushbutton extraction tool (ZEl out 74), pull the cap shell out from its body.

3. two mounting screw heads are now visible. with the torque screwdriver, rotate the two mounting cams.

1. install the mounting sleeve and spacer if used by screwing it on the mounting panel.

4. install the switch through panel cut off. Verify you put it in the correct position (the body is marked with the word “toP”).

information about replacement of your lED push-button:

H with mouting sleeve VF1016, you will need to have access to the back of the mounting panel.

H with mounting sleeves 260sV01My1 or 270sV01My1, you will be able to work through the front of the mounting panel. remove, the terminations will not be affected by any replacement.

cancellation of order An order may not be either totally or partially cancelled without Company's prior agreement in writing. ln the event of an order in process of execution being cancelled, all the goods whose manufacture has commenced will be delivered and billed. Moreover, if Company has had to procure raw materials or special products in view of exe-cuting the aforesaid order, the cost of these procurements will be billed without deducting their possible reemploy-ment value.

Design studies and projects The studies and documents handed over by Company remain its sole property and should be returned on request. Company retains the patent rights of its projects which may not be communicated or executed without its permission in writing.

Delivery The delivery is considered to be made at Company's works or stores.The equipment travels at the consignee's risk, even if shipped "carriage paid" or "assembled on the spot"; these conditions being considered as a factor determining the price agreed to without any shift in responsibility. The risks relating to the products sold become the liability of the purchaser as soon as he is notified that the equip-ment is at his disposal or else, if in-factory acceptance has been scheduled, eight days after he has been informed that the equipment is ready.

Prices Company's quotations are established before VAT, ex-works. ln the event of variations of economic conditions, they can be readjusted where listed equipment is concer-ned, or revised whilst the order is in process for equip-ment supplied against estimates.

Delivery times The delivery times mentioned on Company's documents are provided as an indication. Company will do everything possible for them to be observed. Nevertheless the delays which may be observed may in no event involve Company's responsibility. No penalty for the late delivery may be applied without prior agreement in writing from Company. ln this case the total amount of the penalties may not exceed 10% of the price agreed. They will only be applied if there is a real and duly established prejudice. Company is automatically released from any commitment concer-ning delivery times and penalties, if the conditions have not been observed by the purchaser or if the informa-tion or documents to be supplied by the purchaser have

not arrived by the dates scheduled. Strikes or lock-outs, epidemics, wars, fires, floods, transport delays, legal changes of the working hours, toolings incidents, scrapping of important parts during manufacture, duly established by the customer or one of his mandated agents, or any other case of force majeure beyond the control of Company, can warrant an extension to the delivery time.

terms of payment Company's invoices are payable at its head office, 7 rue des Longs Quartiers - CS 50029 - 93108 Montreuil Cedex - France, in the following conditions: • by cheque, on removal of the goods, for a first transaction • by cheque or bank transfer, accepted and domiciled

draft, promissory note, letter of credit or bank transfer at 30 days starting from end of month of invoice date

Any additional or different terms shall not be binding upon Company unless specifically accepted in writing by an authorized representative of Company. Bills should be sent to us within 15 days after their issue. The fact of not paying an invoice on its due date makes the payment of all the other invoices due immediately.For any late payment on any one of the due dates, the sums due will bear interest at a rate of 3 times legal interest rate without any prior notice requi-red, and without prejudice to any other right which Company reserves for itself. This rate equals to European Central Bank (ECB) interest rate applied in its current refinancing operation, plus an increment of 10 percentage points.

transfer of ownership The transfer of ownership of the term sold takes place automatically on the day on which it is fully paid for.

warranty Company's warranty covers reconditioning free of charge, parts and labour, of all products returned carriage paid,

over a period of 12 months as from the date of delivery. It is applicable provided that products have been used complying with the indications or specifications given by Company and that no work has been done without Company's previous agreement. Company reserves the right to modify products in view of improving them in order to meet warranty requirements, purchasers undertaking not to claim any indemnification. For products returned to Company in view of inspection, calibration, repair and generally speaking all mainte-nance operations, Company's warranty is limited to three months, in the same conditions as above. No claim will be accepted if it has not reached the Company within a period of one month from receipt of the goods, which time is increased to three months in the case of a latent defect which could not be observed within one month.

Disputes Acceptance of an offer or sending of an order is equivalent to agreeing to the Standard Terms and Conditions of sale. The special conditions indicated on an order form only commit Company insofar as they are not contrary to or do not modify the terms specified in the above text. Any dispute concerning the interpretation or application of these terms will, failing an amicable agreement, be decided only by the Commercial Courts with jurisdiction over Company's domicile, whatever the place of delivery and the method of payment, even in the case of calling on the warranty or there being more than one defendant.
