Operation as RF repeater without routing function
The physical address of the radio repeater is the address of a normal KNX participant
x.y.z (z≠0) within the address range of the KNX radio system. Observe the instruc-
tions in the technical documentation regarding the address.
Power is supplied via a separate power supply (accessory) or via the connection to a
KNX line.
Do not use the unchoked 30 V output of a KNX power supply. The media
coupler may heat up to an impermissible temperature.
Repeater mode is active after the physical address is assigned. Once this hap-
pens, programming via bus line is blocked. Then the device can only be
reached by radio. To address the device via the bus line, reset the device to
default settings.
