The EXPERT mode shows additional options for the ETS import:
REMOVE
NONEXISTING
KNX OBJECTS
If this option is enabled, all previously imported KNX objects that are not
present in the new ETS project anymore will be deleted from the HORIZONE
SERVER database.
REFRESH NAMES
REFRESH ETS
FLAGS
If an existing HORIZONE SERVER database is updated, two options define
whether the names and the read/write flags of the KNX objects within this
database should be adapted to the new names and flags from the ETS project
or not. These options should not be enabled if changes have been made to
KNX objects directly in HORIZONE SERVER, instead of making them in ETS
project before importing it.
CREATE
AUTOMATIC
RELATIONS
This option enables / disables the automatic recognition of relations between
individual group addresses in the ETS project and the creation of the same
relations in the HORIZONE SERVER database, for example for updating
statuses of individual objects across multiple group addresses (e.g. for central
functions).
Enabling this option usually results in a correctly functioning and always
refreshed visualisation. If manual changes to the relations between KNX
objects and group addresses have been performed in HORIZONE SERVER, it
is better to disable this option, otherwise all manual changes will be
overwritten. More details about modifying relations between KNX objects and
group addresses can be found in the following chapter.
SELECTIVE
IMPORT
This option allows to select the single group addresses to import.
Note: This option is enabled automatically when the ETS-project to be
imported contains more group addresses than the license of HORIZONE
SERVER allows.
COMMUNICATION
INTERFACE
The interface, through which HORIZONE SERVER communicates with the
imported KNX group addresses, can be selected here. As factory setting,
HORIZONE SERVER communicates with KNX bus, through the integrated
KNX interface. In case, for a specific project, it is needed that HORIZONE
SERVER communicates with KNX bus through IP backbone, a special setting
is available to activate this kind of communication.
By clicking "NEXT" the import process is started, which will last a few minutes depending of the
size of the ETS project to import.
HORIZONE SERVER
will automatically create the appropriate
KNX objects which can be used to create the graphical visualisation in the FRONT END. Once the
import process is finished, a summary of all actions is shown:
As soon as the project is imported,
HORIZONE SERVER
checks if the single KNX objects are
matching an ETS import rule. If for a KNX object at least one ETS import rule is matching, it will be
applied; no additional configuration of these objects will be necessary.
If all created KNX objects match at least one ETS import rule, after some seconds the section
“ETS IMPORT RULES” will disappear and by clicking “NEXT” the import procedure can be
completed (the communication service is restarted automatically, so that the web server can
manage all the new created objects).
