Object structure / Address space

EIBPORT emulates structure of communication objects of KNX. That means, to every object can be allocated up to five group addresses. Therefor placing of group address, for example of an actor channel, can be emulated directly. In this way EIBPORT will be informed in every time about real state of actor (not group address) and expensive working with feedback can remain undone. This procedure simplifies creating of logical connections, because to every input object of getter can allocated up to five group addresses.

EIBPORT Address space:

EIBPORT supports 32 main groups (in 2- or 3-digits spelling). There are divided as follows:

0–15 real EIB-Address space

Real address space will be sent from EIBPORT to KNX.

16–31 virtual EIB-Address space

Virtual address space will be used by EIBPORT in network and intra EIBPORT.

Based on this address division, real EIB–bus load can be reduced. One in network bound on centrical visualisation can directly activate or inactivate, for example a timer, without to burden EIB.

General syntax

After first group address, following addresses must set in brackets, separated by comma.

Example:

2/12(2/13,2/14,2/15,2/16)
