inputs of the user (using VIRTUAL OBJECTS), received values of KNX OBJECTS etc. For this section, the following actions
are available:
•
Creation of a new sub object directly through the ADD button. In this case, a VIRTUAL OBJECT is created and
connected to the counter. Take care, this object doesn't have any own function after its creation; this must be
defined - if necessary - by creating events within the properties window of the object.
•
Connection of an existing object (e.g. KNX object) via drag & drop from within the search function
In both cases it is necessary to assign to the connected objects a FUNCTIONALITY within the counter. The following op-
tions are available:
POWER – MEASURED
VALUE
Electrical power measured by a KNX network analysis device, typically provided through a
KNX object.
POWER – MIN. LIMIT
POWER – MAX. LIMIT
Thresholds determining the graphical representation of the power values within the
VISUALISATION (can also be used by the load control if the ENERGY COUNTER is used for
that purpose).
Note: if these functionalities are used, previously entered static values (as explained before) will
be ignored and hidden from the properties page.
LOAD OVER LIMIT
ON/OFF object that is triggered automatically when the limits are exceeded (only when the
load control is active, check out next chapter).
LOAD PRIORITY
Priority of the load, used for switching on/off when load control is active (check out next
chapter).
LOAD ON OFF
LOAD AUTO/MAN
Please use this functionalities only if the ENERGY COUNTER is used for active load control
(check out next chapter)
The selection of a FUNCTIONALITY also automatically determines the graphical aspect of the related object as well as its
representation in the VISUALISATION. Consequently, no further alterations / adaptations of the connected objects are
necessary.
This lastly described feature accelerates the configuration of the ENERGY COUNTERS enormously and offers,
especially in cases where no corresponding KNX object is available (for example for limit adjustment), the
possibility to get the desired result fast by using VIRTUAL OBJECTS.
Some FUNCTIONALITIES allow a value input directly within the configuration area; this for example applies for the limit
values. This accelerates the configuration again and furthermore it is possible to insert already default values for the end
customer (who can naturally adapt the values at any time in the VISUALISATION).
