NTRODUCTION
The following chapters will show in detail how U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch has to be configured in order to work in a
KNX system. Prerequisite for creating the VISUALISATION on U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch is a KNX project that has
been programmed either with ETS3 or ETS4. The focus of the subsequent chapters is initially on how the individual data
points are imported and what options for these data points are available. The creation of the graphical interface of the
VISUALISATION will be explained in chapter 6, "Rooms".

ROJECT
U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch allows the import of KNX projects that have been realized with ETS3 or ETS4. U.motion
KNX Server Plus Touch automatically takes over the structure and functionality of the single group addresses contained in
the ETS project; the entire import process only takes a few minutes. To import a ETS project into U.motion KNX Server
Plus Touch it is required that the project is available in a compatible format.

import the needed information of the ETS project into U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch.

Open the desired project, which should be imported into U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch
Execute the OPC export to create a file with the ending *.esf (ETS3: “Data exchange” -> “Export to OPC-SERVER”;
