DEVICE TYPE „EXTENSION“ (EIBPORT
EXTENSION)
If the DMX Duo Gateway is used as an extension for eibPort, both devices are “talking” about eibPort
own BMX protocol. For this is the job of eibPort "linking facilities" is used. In the following the necessary
steps will be described.
7.1
CHECK/SET COMMUNICATION PARAMETERS
The BMX protocol used for communication either TCP or UDP. In this case, the communication over UDP
(User Datagram Protocol) is used. Thus the sender (eibPort) and receiver (DUO DMX Gateway) can ,
“
talk
” together, they must communicate over the same port number.
BMX Port
Cause in the DUO DMX Gateway the port number cannot be changed it must be set correctly in the
eibPort. About the "

in eibPort.
Figure 44: eibPort Communication Parameter
The correct port number is "1735". This number is the default of eibPort, but because this number can
be changed it should be checked before.
System ID
In addition, for the facilities coupling a so-called "
System ID
" is used. That's a number from 0-255 and is
used -in the case of the facility coupling - to differ coupled KNX facilities from each other in virtual
plants. For the DUO DMX Gateway the eibPort has to have the system ID "0". The system ID is set under
