O3-DIN EnOcean Gateway Specifications
EnOcean Basics
EnOcean is a wireless protocol for ultra-low power energy harvesting sensors, switches, and
controls. EnOcean devices offer batteryless, maintenance-free operation and come with
standardized communication profiles to ensure interoperability across manufacturers.
EnOcean devices use short, infrequent radio signals and can transmit over distances of up to
30 m (100 ft) indoors. The signals are received and processed by line-powered devices such as
relay switch actuators, repeaters, or gateways.

O3-DIN EnOcean Gateway Basics
The O3-DIN EnOcean gateway connects wireless EnOcean devices to the BACnet building
network using a wired serial connection to an EnOcean-capable O3 Hub sensor hub or
CON-ENOC adapter. The communication protocol is defined by
.
The gateway acts as both a receiver and a transmitter, reading from EnOcean input devices and
writing to EnOcean output devices. Structured View (SV) objects represent the EnOcean devices
on the network, with device data mapped to BACnet values according to a supplied XML
mapping file. Normally these mappings are based on an EnOcean Equipment Profile (EEP), but
custom mappings are also supported.
The gateway
the following EEP types:
l
F6
: Repeated Switch Communication (RPS) Telegram — e.g., F6-02-01
l
D5
: 1 Byte Communication (1BS) Telegram — e.g., D5-00
l
A5
: 4 Byte Communication (4BS) Telegram — e.g., A5-20-01

Communication is established between the gateway and an EnOcean device through a pairing
process in which the device is put into learn mode and a "learn in" or "learn out" packet is sent
from the gateway to the device.
