Touch Pure Flex Air

The Touch Pure Flex is your 100% personalized control device with up to 12 freely definable and positionable touch points.
With the integrated LED matrix display, as well as 3 status LEDs, menus, values, texts and states can be displayed.
In addition, the Touch Pure Flex also serves as a Room Comfort Sensor thanks to the integrated temperature and humidity sensor.

Mounting

Fasten the included plastic mounting frame to a flat surface or to a installation box. Alternatively, the aluminum frame can be used, available separately.

When using an external power supply, a junction box is recommended to tuck away connecting wires or a spare loop behind the device.
Optionally, a small power supply unit can be installed in the box.

Connect the power supply (orange/white plug-in terminal).
For battery operation, remove the orange/white plug-in terminal and insert two AAA batteries.

A self-adhesive cover is included in the delivery to protect against water. It must be attached above the terminals once connected.
Two markings at the top edge of the housing help with positioning:

The Touch Pure Flex is first inserted into the top of the frame and then snapped into place at the bottom. To release the device, pull firmly on the bottom to disengage the latch.

A suction cup can be used to detach the device from the aluminum frame.


Commissioning

In delivery state, pairing mode will be active after the power supply has been established. This is indicated on the display.

Then follow the pairing procedure on the Air Interface.

To activate the pairing mode manually, switch off the power for 10 seconds, then switch it back on. If no connection to a Miniserver can be established for five minutes, pairing mode will be activated for a limited time.

The available functions differ depending on whether the device is battery operated or connected to an external power supply. This is determined during pairing. The device must therefore be paired in the same supply method in which it is to be operated later.
If the supply method is changed later, the device must be deleted from the configuration and paired again.


Programming Example

Via "View/Configure button assignment" a window opens, here the respective Config ID (from the label of the Touch Pure Flex) is entered.


After that, the Touch Pure Flex configuration is downloaded from Loxone and the button icons are visible in the dialog.
If commands were also defined in the Online Configurator, these are now also assigned to the device.
Alternatively, the individual button inputs are also available after downloading the configuration.

To change or create new commands, click on the respective button and open the API Command Generator in the corresponding line via the cogwheel:

In the following example, we select a lighting controller and the input for selecting the mood. The "MENU" command then enables a menu selection of the moods on the Touch Pure Flex via the display and the arrow keys.


Now the Touch Pure Flex is dragged onto the desired lighting controller, the API Connector is created automatically:


In the Simulation/Liveview a representation of the Touch Pure Flex can be opened.
This way the created commands can be tested:

Commands for numerous blocks can be created according to the same principle. The following document contains a list and explanation of the possible commands:

Limitations when battery powered

After inserting the battery, the device performs a calibration of the keypad. The device needs about 30 seconds to calibrate and should not be touched. Afterwards, the buttons are fully functional.
When battery powered, the display and status LEDs cannot be controlled because the device is in idle state.
