When programming the media coupler via RF: For the programming of the
physical address and the domain address to be carried out and completed cor-
rectly, the domain address of the RF line must match the domain address of
the RF communication interface (e.g. KNX RF USB data interface)! Otherwise,
communication errors can be expected. The domain address of the KNX RF
USB data interface used is configured in the general connection settings of the
ETS. In an ETS project, the domain address of an RF line or a media/segment
coupler is configured in the line properties (separate for each RF line).
■
Load the application program into the device using the ETS.
The filter table is automatically loaded to the device together with the applica-
tion program via the ETS. Whether or not the filter table is used for routing
group telegrams in media coupler operation is defined by the device paramet-
ers. In pure repeater operation, the filter table has no function.
Commissioning the device as a repeater
The device can be programmed and commissioned purely as a repeater in RF lines
(no media coupler function) via the TP side only to a limited extent (e.g. with the aid
of suitable USB or IP data interfaces insofar as the device is connected to the TP line
of the associated media coupler). Programming access to the device via the RF side
is always possible with no limitation (e.g. with a KNX RF USB data interface or via a
media coupler).
After commissioning, a repeater can no longer be reached directly via the TP side.
As a result, further programming operations using the ETS can no longer be ex-
ecuted on the TP side without the media coupler. Direct access to the device via the
TP side is only possible again when the device is reset to delivery state (see chapter
"As-delivered state"
Program the physical address and the application program always separately.
The procedure for commissioning as a repeater depends on the version of the in-
ternal device software.
Commissioning a device with a marking from "I04" onwards
In the case of a device with the marking "I04" or higher, the "Repeater-Prog-
mode" of the device must be activated before the physical address is pro-
grammed.
■
Disconnect the device connection terminal.
■
Hold down the programming button (2) (see figure 1).
■
Reconnect the device connection terminal.
The device restarts. The status LED (3) briefly lights up red and then yellow.
■
Release the programming button as soon as the status LED starts flashing red
slowly.
Safe-state mode is active.
