FUNCTIONAL INFORMATION
2.1
PTM 215B Device Overview
The pushbutton transmitter module PTM 215B from EnOcean enables the implementation of
wireless remote controls without batteries. Power is provided by a built-in electro-dynamic
power generator. PTM 215B device transmits data based on the 2.4GHz BLE standard.
The outer appearance of PTM 215B is shown on the picture below.

Basic Functionality
PTM 215B devices contain an electro-dynamic energy transducer which is actuated by an
energy bow (1). This bow is pushed by an appropriate push button, switch rocker or a simi-
lar construction mounted onto the device. An internal spring will release the energy bow as
soon as it is not pushed down anymore.
When the energy bow is pushed down, electrical energy is created and an BLE radio tele-
gram is transmitted which identifies the status (pressed or not pressed) of the four button
contacts (2). Releasing the energy bow similarly generates energy which is used to trans-
mit a different radio telegram.
It is therefore possible to distinguish between radio telegrams sent when the energy bar
was pushed and radio telegrams sent when the energy bar was released.
By identifying these different telegrams types and measuring the time between pushing
and releasing of the energy bar, it is possible to distinguish between “Long” and “Short”
button contact presses. This enables simple implementation of applications such as dim-
ming control or blinds control including slat action.
