PTM 210 / PTM 210C 

 
The radio transmitter device PTM 210 / PTM 210C from EnOcean enables the implementa-
tion of wireless remote controls without batteries. Power is provided by a built-in electro-

dynamic power generator. The PTM 210 / PTM 210C device serves the 868 MHz / 315 MHz 
air interface protocol of EnOcean.  

 
 

 

 

 

 
A common electro-dynamic energy transducer is actuated by a bow (1), which can be 
pushed from outside the device by an appropriate push button or switch rocker. When the 

energy bow is pushed down, electrical energy is created and an RF telegram is transmitted 
including a 32-bit device ID. Releasing the energy bow generates different telegram data, 

so every PTM telegram contains the information that the bow was pressed or released. 
 

“Long” or “Short” push button operation (the time between pushing and releasing the 
pushbutton) can be easily detected by the receiver. By doing that, applications such as 

dimming control or blinds control including slat action are simple to implement. 
 
In addition, the PTM telegram transmits the operating status of the contact nipples (2) 

when pressing the bow. This enables the identification of up to 2 appropriate switch rockers 
or up to 4 pushbuttons.
