CAUTION indicates a hazard or unsafe practice that could result in injury;

NOTICE indicates an activity or practice that could result in damage to the device.

The symbol varies with the type of risk described

2.1 Intended use Electronic devices are normally not failsafe. In the event of a failure on the iDom devices, the user is responsible for ensuring that other devices that may be connected are made secure.



3 KNX SERVER

3.1 What is KNX Server The KNX Server is an ultimate controller tool for the EIB/KNX system. DIN Rail based for easily installation, it will interface with KNXnet/IP interface (not included) and use a free software tools (iDom Project) for programming and configure it. The KNX Server will allow you to expand your KNX system to other dimension that you never thought before.

KNXServer is a bridge from KNX world to other protocols, in one single platform on a simple way.

KNX Server acts as a bridge for those sub-systems, bringing them to the KNX installation in a seamless

way.

The KNX Server functions as a bridge to other protocols that brings huge opportunities and challenges

to the KNX integrators and users.

The KNX Server is in continuous development, so third party technologies integrations are constantly

increasing the system bridge possibilities.

KNX server currently supports the following protocols: Modbus DMX Zigbee iDom X-10 Apart of such protocols the KNX Server provides six analog input (10 bits resolution) and six outputs ( three Pulse witdh modulations and three analog outputs) for various applications.



3.2 How it works

3.2.1 Install

An easy installation at the Internet router allows you to communicate with your KNX installation.

The KNX Server is a DIN Rail based for easily installation. It connects to KNX-Bus through any interface that supports KNXnet/IP Tunnelling.

Certified IP Interface KNX IP Interface 730 and 770 (730 dedicated connection, 770 multiple connections) from Weinzierld - www.weinzierl.de



3.2.2 Configure

KNX server is the simplest way to connect different technologies and protocols with a single integration. Export the KNX project file on ETS Software to an ESF file so that can be used with iDom Project. This is a free tool to configure and deploy your KNX Server system with unlimited possibilities. At this stage you can cross programming between different supported protocols.

3.2.3 Plug and Play

KNX server with it's Plug & Play capabilities allows you to get instant integration with the whole installations. You can control and monitor your installations just by downloading the application at the Google Play or App Store.

KNX Server with its Plug & Play features allows you to get instant integration with the whole installation. You can control and monitoring your installations just by downloading the application on Google Play or Apps Store



4 INSTALLATION Installation must take place according to the documentation, using suitable equipment and tools.

Devices must be installed without voltage applied and by qualified personnel.

General safety regulations and nationally applicable accident prevention guidelines must be

observed.

Electrical installation must be carried out according to the relevant guidelines

WARNING

The KNX Server use maximum of 24Volts DC. The KNX Server can be installed in electrical control cabinets or in small distribution were hazard voltages are present. When installing observe the risks and avoid potential hazards

The KNX Server can be installed in electrical control cabinets or in small distribution boards according the DIN RAIL standard.

Installation detail on DIN rail

A typical installation of KNX can now integrate with other technologies with different protocols in a very simplified way. KNX Server added to the existing installation allows you to connect to: System Bridge Multi protocol.



4.1 Power Connections An external a power supply is required to provide power to KNX Server.

4.2 LEDs Information

Red (Power - Power Supply) Green (Ready - Ready to Work) Orange (Busy - Module Activity) Yellow (Bus - Bus Activity)



4.3 RS232 & RS485 (6P6C, known as RJ11, RJ12, RJ14, RJ25) The 6P6C modular connection provides serial communication over RS232 or RS485 for external devices.

Over RS485 port is possible to use multi-point connections such MODBUS RTU or DMX512 protocol, for more details please refer to the specific manual. RS232 port provides point to point connection. When you use the RS232 or RS485 with other device you must turn on the resistance switch.

4.4 Ethernet The Ethernet connection provides a full-duplex 10/100Tx connection to the iDom System. With such connection it is possible to programme and control the whole iDom network.

Over Ethernet it is possible to connect to the KNX Ethernet Device protocol, for more details please refer to the specific manual.

5 CREATE IDOM NETWORK BASED ON EXISTING KNX INFRASTRUCTURES

Before starting create an iDom network based on existing KNX Sytems infrastructures, is necessary the following material:

1. The KNX Server,

2. iDom project builder

3. The KNX device which does the interface between KNX BUS and ethernet (IP Tunneling & Object Server), for example: WEINZIERL KNX IP BAOS 771, WEINZIERL KNX IP Interface 730, ABB

IPS/S 2.1 IP Interface.

4. ETS Software Tool ( ETS means Engineering Tool Software; a manufacturer independent

configuration tool Software to design and configure intelligent home and building control installations

with the KNX system. ETS is a software, which runs on Windows platform based computers.)

5.1 VERIFICATIONS

5.1.1 KNX IP:

1. Check if the KNX Device IP is in the same IP range as the router (Example: Image).

5.1.2 KNX Server

1. Check if the KNX Server IP is in the same IP range as the router (Example: Image).

6 ENERGY MANAGEMENT SOLUTION With your KNX Server you can easily equip your installation with a cost effective Energy Management solution you just need to connect current transformers into your KNX Server (maximum 6 current transformers) and configure your system. KNX Extender is available if you need to add more current transformers into your system. External Energy Meters can be connected to KNX Server through MODBUS, please refer to iDom MODBUS manual for more details.

6.1 Connecting Current Transformers Connect the current transformer between one input and the ground pin Connecting a current transformer KNX Server

Connecting a current transformer KNX Extender



6.2 Connecting relays. With KNX Server you can also control circuits remotely you just need to connect relays into your KNX Server and configure the system. The way how the relay can be connected may vary according the output type. Pay attention if the ouput is a PWM or analog output. Relays can be connected on either analog outputs or digital outputs (PWM).



7 EXTEND YOUR SYSTEM If your systems need s more inputs or outputs connections KNX Extender is the solution. The KNX Server can be installed as a stand alone or connected to other devices such KNX Extenders using the iDom BUS. The iDom BUS uses DomaticaCan protocol over CAN BUS and it is possible to connect several iDom devices into the same network at a speed of up to 1000 Kbit/s.
