U.motion KNX Server Plus, Touch
Installation Manual
The ETS import rules are used by U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch as follows: during the import process, all group
addresses within the import file are scanned and for each address a KNX object is created. If at least one of the keywords
defined in an ETS import rule is found in the name of a KNX object, U.motion KNX Server Plus Touch checks whether the
data length of this object matches the one defined in the ETS import rule ("TYPE"). If this second parameter matches, the
ETS import rule is applied for this KNX object. For the matching KNX object the encoding defined in the ETS import rule
will be applied automatically, furthermore it will be assigned to the FUNCTION category defined in the ETS import rule
and also it will get the symbol specified in the rule. Any further editing of KNX objects, which have already been
customized by an ETS import rule, is normally not needed, what can save a lot of time.
All KNX objects, which do not match at least one ETS import rule, must be edited manually during or after the import
process, in order to assigning data length, encoding and the icon. Especially for large ETS projects with numerous group
addresses it is recommended to make use of the ETS import rules, since the manual configuration of the single KNX
objects can take a lot of time depending on the number of KNX objects.
The ETS import rules can be modified also during the import process, in the moment when those KNX objects
are listed, which do not match with any ETS import rule.
