CENARIOS
The section "ROOMS, TO WHICH THE OBJECT BELONGS" includes all rooms of the software, in which the object is visible
and accessible through the VISUALISATION. An object can exist in several rooms, but also in none; after the first ETS
import an object belongs to no room, since the single rooms have to be created before an object can be assigned to
them.
If some rooms are already configured, the object can be assigned to a room by searching the desired room through the
search function and pull it into the list "ROOMS, TO WHICH THE OBJECT BELONGS" of the object ("drag and drop"). The
other way around, it is also possible to use the configuration page of a room to add the individual KNX objects; more
information about configuring the VISUALISATION by adding objects to the single rooms can be found in the appropriate
chapter of this manual.
The list "LINKED SCENARIOS" shows all the created scenarios that contain the current object; more information about the
scenarios can be found in the corresponding chapter of this manual.

VENTS
The last two sections of the KNX objects configuration page allow the creation of events, which can offer the following
actions:
•
Change status of the current object in dependency of another object status (PASSIVE)
•
Change status of another object in dependency of the current object status (ACTIVE)
To create a passive or active event the following steps are necessary:
•
Search for the objects that should interact with the current object
•
Drag the desired objects into the corresponding area (“ACTIVE EVENTS” or “PASSIVE EVENTS“) and drop
them there
For each created event, the following settings are available:
CONDITION
Determines the state of the object for which the event should be triggered; depending on the type
of the object different statuses are available. The selection "Every status change" means that the
event will be triggered at any status change of the reference object.
ACTION
Depending on the type of the object, different actions can be selected. If a KNX object is selected
normally you can only choose between "Write" (write a command on the KNX bus) or "Read" (send
a status request to the KNX bus); for more information about the possible actions with other
objects consult the appropriate chapters of this manual.
VALUE
If the target object supports it, you can set the value the target object should be set whenever the
event is triggered; the available values depend on the type of the target object. It is also possible to
set the target object to the same value as the triggering object ("Value of ...") or its inverted value
("Inverted value of ...").
When you create an active event, the object that you are currently working on will be the object that triggers the event. If
you instead create a passive event, the object that is added to the appropriate area will be the one triggering the event.
