Configuring Binary Input as Toggle Button

In the IHC Plugin, binary inputs can be configured to act as toggle buttons that control LED dimmer channels.

NOTE: If you imported a .vis project, all dataline inputs are initially configured as plain binary inputs by default. The parse script cannot determine their intended function.

Follow these steps to configure a binary input as a toggle button:

Open the IHC Plugin interface and go to the DEVICE MAPPING section. Select the Input Devices tab.
Locate the input device you want to configure – use its Logical address (corresponding to the input dataline) to identify it.
Change the Device type and Function:
- Set the Device type to Push button.
- Set the Function to Toggle (On/Off and Dim Up/Down).
Enter a name for the input device to make it easier to identify in your project.
Adjust the Short press time if needed. The default value is 250 milliseconds, which is suitable for most toggle button applications.

Once configured, the binary input will behave as a toggle button, ready to be linked to an LED dimmer channel using KNX group objects.
