4.2.4.14.2 Displaying RSS newsfeeds<br />
Synchronising RSS newsfeeds<br />
The panel allows the evaluation of up to eight different RSS sources. The web address of an<br />
RSS source is set using the PC Client software (see chapter 4.3.1. Introduction, installation and<br />
program start). The panel polls all the configured RSS sources cyclically and updates the feed<br />
contents. The update time can be configured for each RSS source in the RSS settings in the PC<br />
Client software, allowing the user to influence the topicality of the displayed messages.<br />
In addition 'manual' polling of the RSS newsfeeds is possible directly on the panel (see section<br />
"Displaying RSS newsfeeds" below).<br />
i For the panel to be able to synchronise the RSS sources cyclically without faults, the LAN<br />
connection (Ethernet operation) and, if necessary, the WAN connection (Internet) must be<br />
available without interruptions. It is generally advisable to have a suitable flatrate connection<br />
(e.g. DSL Flat), in order to keep the telephone and Internet connection costs as low as<br />
possible.<br />
i The panel automatically synchronises itself with the RSS sources for the first time 2<br />
minutes after a device reset (return of mains power, programming operation). There is no<br />
automatic synchronisation before this time has elapsed, meaning that RSS newsfeeds are<br />
displayed after a delay after a reset (see next section).<br />
i The synchronisation operation always runs in the background. During this time, the panel<br />
can be operated normally. Fault-free KNX/EIB communication is also guaranteed.<br />
It should be noted that the synchronisation operation may take several seconds, in the<br />
case of large contents even several minutes. For this reason, one should wait after each<br />
synchronisation until the feed contents can be fully displayed. If the panel is too busy processing<br />
the feed data (text parsing, image scaling) that no touch operation is generally possible<br />
for a short period, then the "Hourglass icon" appears at the centre of the screen.<br />
Displaying RSS newsfeeds<br />
The operator of the panel can display the contents of the RSS newsfeeds on the device display<br />
at any time. To do this, they must open the "Overview of RSS feeds" system page . It is possible<br />
to jump to this page by opening the page using a function button.<br />

Functional description<br />
(45) Name of an RSS newsfeed (transmitted by the feed source and thus cannot be edited)<br />
A button is displayed in the overview for each active RSS source (see chapter 4.3.1. Introduction,<br />
installation and program start). The title of an RSS newsfeeds transmitted by the RSS<br />
source appears as text in the buttons (45), thus clearly identifying the source of the messages.<br />
An RSS button shows the text "No data loaded", when the panel was unable to synchronise the<br />
feed contents (e.g. server of the RSS source is offline, Internet connection failure, incorrect URL<br />
specified) or, for example, no data has yet been polled after a device reset.<br />
As soon as the operator taps an RSS button, the panel switches to the inbox display page of the<br />
