Before the KNX project is imported into U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch, you should just think about the usage of the
ETS import rules. The administration of the ETS import rules can be found in the ADMINISTRATION of U.motion KNX
Server Plus Touch under "TECHNOLOGIES"
→
"KNX":
The ETS-import rules automate the import process by assigning function and graphical appearance to the single data
points depending on the configured criteria. The available criteria are data type (length), encoding and user-definable
keywords which have to be included in the name of the group addresses for whom the corresponding ETS import rule
should be applied. In U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch some ETS import rules, which apply to generically used data
points, are already predefined; adjusting the ETS import rules is worthwhile, since it will make the personalization of a lot
of data points after the import no more necessary.
Following parameters can be defined:
KEYWORD
One or more keywords, of which at least one must be present in the name of a group address
of the imported KNX-project, so that the ETS import rule will be applied correctly. When
multiple keywords are specified, they must be separated by a comma; blank spaces are
recognized as part of the keyword!
TYPE
Length (in bit/byte) of the target group addresses in the KNX project
ENCODING
Encoding to be used by U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch in order to interpret the KNX bus data
correctly; the available encodings depend on the data length defined in "TYPE"
FUNCTION
During the import process U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch, for each group address present in
the KNX-project, creates a KNX object in its internal database. Each KNX object, created from a
group address for which an ETS import rule was applied, will be automatically assigned to the
here defined FUNCTION category during the import process
SYMBOL
Icon for showing the object graphically inside the VISUALISATION, assigned automatically by
the defined ETS import rule
