Seconds between connect retries when KNX link has been lost, 0 means never retry The serial port to use for connecting to the KNX bus The serial bridge accepts the following configuration parameters: Name Seconds between connect retries when KNX link has been lost (0 means never). Limits the read retries while initialization from the KNX bus Timeout in seconds to wait for a response from the KNX bus Time in milliseconds of how long should be paused between two read requests to the bus during initialization Whether there is network address translation between the server and the gateway Or leave it at 0.0.0 and let openHAB decide which address to use. Note: Use a free address, not the one of the interface.

The (virtual) individual address for identification of this KNX/IP gateway within the KNX bus The system-wide configured primary interface address Network address of the local host to be used to set up the connection to the KNX/IP gateway If type ROUTER is set, the IPv4 Multicast Address can be set. The IP connection type for connecting to the KNX bus ( TUNNEL or ROUTER) At its base, the ip bridge accepts the following configuration parameters: Name The IP Gateway is the most commonly used way to connect to the KNX bus. Bridges don't have channels on their own. The following two bridge types are supported. The binding itself does not require any special configuration. There is an ip bridge to connect to KNX IP Gateways, and a serial bridge for connection over a serial port to a host-attached gateway. The KNX binding supports two types of bridges, and one type of things to access the KNX bus. Since the protocol is identical, the KNX binding can also communicate with it transparently. The KNX binding then can communicate directly with this gateway.Īlternatively, a PC running KNXD (opens new window) (free open source component software) can be put in between which then acts as a broker allowing multiple client to connect to the same gateway. This can be either an Ethernet (as a Router or a Tunnel type) or a serial gateway. To access your KNX bus, you either need a gateway device which is connected to the KNX bus and allows computers to access the bus communication. Switching lights on and off, activating your roller shutters, or changing room temperatures are only some examples. The openHAB KNX binding allows to connect to KNX Home Automation (opens new window) installations.
