Type: The type of the object (see drop down box)
Select disable if the object id is not used.
Description: Short description, maximum 30 characters.
As described above, a Crestron CI-KNX can be setup to communicate with other
KNX units based on Object ids.
When using Object Addresses the Crestron programmer needs to know which
objects are present in the ETS program. Using this information the programmer can
control the status of these objects and the group addresses the objects belong to.
For example every controllable light zone will have at least one object. This object
will be linked to a Group Address in ETS. If a device function needs to be controlled
by this object, then the device object representing this device function should be
added to the same Group Address in ETS. By sending a value to the CI-KNX object
all the device functions that were added to this Group Address will be triggered
accordingly. E.g. when a lighting zone switch object is added to this Group Address,
then sending a 1 to the CI-KNX object will turn the lighting zone to 1 and sending a
0 will turn it off.
Extra to every object you have information about the data - type, meaning the format
of the expected data. The type is specified by the number of bits used; the general
types are 1 Bit , 4 Bit, 1 Byte, 2 Byte, 4 Byte and 14 Byte.
Installation
Attach the Crestron CI-KNX to the DIN rail.
Connect the CAT5 cable
Connect the KNX bus
Connect the power source to power up the CI-KNX (if Power over Ethernet is not
