Application program information
Application program: Ingenium / Dimmers (manufacturer / program name).
Catalogue version: v2.1.2
Maximum number of communication objects: 24.
Maximum number of assignments: 25.
ETS minimum required version: 4.1.8 (build 3614)
The parameters of the gateway are configured with a specific parameter dialog (plug-in); do click on “open” from the
parameters menu in the ETS to run it.
3.2
Individual Address
This KNX-DMX gateway is a device that allows having more than one internal individual address. Each DMX device is virtually
represented in its memory as a KNX dimmer with its own communication objects and individual address.
This KNX-DMX gateway answers always with the individual address 15.15.255 to the "devices in programming mode" check
procedure from the ETS, even if it has been already programmed with virtual DMX dimmers. However, an individual address
existence check or line scan will report all virtual dimmers in the KNX-DMX gateway memory.
When a virtual dimmer is programmed in the gateway memory, the individual address cannot be overwritten with the same
device because the ETS will show a “more than one device in programming mode” error. It is highly recommended to delete
the internal memory of the device before programming in order to avoid these problems (see next paragraph).
3.3
Restore factory settings
This KNX-DMX gateway allows to restore factory settings just using the programming button. To get this functionality, it is
necessary to disconnect the power supply (230Vac) from the device, push the programming button and connect again while
holding the programming button for 5 seconds. When LED status turns on, it indicates that the gateway has been successfully
restored.
