Electrical Connections:

WARNING: Disconnect the power supply before connecting the device to the electrical network!

Follow the steps below for electrical connections:

1. Connect the red wire of the bus cable to the red(+) terminaland the black wire to the black(-) terminal. Up to 4 bus lines can be connected to the same terminal with wires of the same color.
2. Connect the bus device.

Programming

Physical Address Programming:

1. Power the device through the bus.
2. Press the programming button to prepare the Gateway KNX/DMX for physical address loading from ETS. Both main power and KNX bus power are required to configure the device via ETS.

Functions:

The Gateway KNX-DMX has the following available objects:

• DPT1.001 (1 bit; single-channel switch)
• DPT1.001 (1 bit; sequence save/recall)
• DPT3.007 (4 bit; single-channel relative dimming)
• DPT5.001 (1 byte; single-channel value display)

The gateway also supports the following functions:

• Automatic Off Function (S3=0): Reduces or increments the DMX# value gradually by 7..-7 in percentage.
• Automatic On Function (S30): Allocates a lower group address (bi-level KNX address area). Use DPT 5.001 with a 1-byte value (0..100%) to set the channel value.

Note: For setting a 1-byte value, use lower group addresses (0-511) corresponding to the channels.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

• The KNX-DMX Gateway is an Interface between the KNX bus and the DMX512 bus.
• It combines elements of building automation with a multitude of lighting and special effects devices for every need.
• The KNX-DMX Gateway is unidirectional, receives data telegrams on the KNX bus and transmits the data onto the DMX512 bus.
• The interface allows the DMX512 actuators to communicate via the KNX bus using the full range of the channel.
• The KNX-DMX Gateway contains 8 adjustable sequence positions within the whole channel range.
• Individual scenes with all 512 channels can be saved and retrieved using KNX group addresses.
• This function allows all channels to be connected simultaneously to one single object without causing any undo load on the KNX bus.
• The sequences are saved internally and can be retrieved even after a power outage.
• (A sequence can only be saved 10000 times during the lifetime of the device.
• The automatic save function should not be set for short intervals.)
• The set value in sequence 8 is also „on” for all channels when using 1 bit objects.
• The KNX-DMX Gateway is ready to use and can be positioned to the main group addresses with an S1rotary switch.
• It is not necessary to project via the ETS.

Warnings for installation phase

• Switch on the voltage supply.
• The group addresses are coded by S1 when the DC voltage in KNX-DMX Gateway is switched on.
• Soft-start (slow start-up to protect lights) can be adjusted using S2 and S3 sets the dimming function.
• If turning the rotary switch afterwards has no effect, it can be reset using T1.
• The Pr button on device inputs the physical addresses via a dummy application into the ETS.
• The Jumper J1 (120R TERM) times the RS485 Bus with 120 Ohm load resistance in its initial state.
• The KNX bus is galvanically separated from the DMX 512 bus!

4. Insulate the screen, the electrical continuity conductor and the remaining white and yellow wires of the bus cable should a bus cable with 4 conductors be used), which are not needed.

PROGRAMMING

Physical address programming
Physical address programming

1. Power up the device using the bus.
2. Press the programming button to set the Gateway KNX/DMX to load the physical address from ETS.
   Both Main Supply and bus power are requie to set the device via ETS.

Functions

The KNX-DMX Gateway has 1556 objects with three types of telegrams available:

• DPT 1.001 (1bit: switch) single channel
• DPT 1.001 (1bit; switch) save sequence and retrieve
• DPT 3.007 (4bit; relative dimming) single channel
• DPT 5.001 (1byte; show value) single channel
• The S2 rotary switch adjusts the transition period from one preset brightness to the next, 15 (F) being immediate, O a time period of 1 second from 0% to 100%.
• The S3 rotary switch automatically sets the dimming function parameters, O is no automatic dimming, other- wise dimming time = 1.5 sec * switch value (S3 = 1 .. 15 (F) ) in increments of 1% (dimming value 0111b or 1111b).
• The rotary switch settings will be prompted when starting and can be readjusted during operation by using the T1 button.
• Necessary requirements are a KNX bus, DMX 512 bus and a power supply.
• The KNX-DMX Gateway in REG casing IP20 is available in sizes of 6 DIN units.
• Firmware upgrades can be done via USB port.

Automatic Dimming Function:

• Automatic dimming function can be switched on or off for all channels using an object, or can be parameterized by S3 when booting up.
• Thereby the properties are controlled when dimming telegram (DPT 3.007) appears.
• Automatic function Off ( S3 = 0)
• A dimming object (4 bit) value range +7 .. -7 singularly reduces or increases the DMX value percentagewise.
• Automatic function On ( S3 <>0)
• A uniquely transmitted dimming setting is repeated during a time period (dimmer repetition) until it reaches a value of 0 or 100% or until it is manually stopped.
• When 100% is transmitted, the preset value in „dimming curve” is used (basic setting 1%).
• This function allows the integration of the KNX-Gateway for an installation with standard key buttons.
• A standard key button transmits a 100% upward or downward command in dimming function when pushed and held and a stop command when let go.
• A dimming setting can thus be set.
• The dimming time period can be adjusted separately using either the parameter repetition or the dimmer curve.
• The basic setting after booting up is 1% dimming.
• The repetition rate is controlled by the rotary switch S3 and gives a dimming time result of circa 1.5 sec switching value (S3 = 1 .. 15 (F).

Address Diagram

• The KNX-DMX Gateway is a master device in the DMX bus.
• It possesses an internal data memory and constantly transmits the data at a DMX rate of 250k baud to all 512 DMX channels.
• When receiving valid DMX telegrams the values in the memory are changed.
• The transfer of the KNX telegram is preconfigured so that individual programming is not necessary.
• The KNX data points are managed in 3 address rooms.
• That means that switching or dimming can be accessed on every channel.
• The group addresses diagram must be set up using the S1 rotary switch before initial operation (voltage supply).
• Changes become effective after a reset.
• The main group addresses from 0 – 15 are set up with the 16 stage rotary switch.
• The middle and lower group addresses are set by the predetermined address rooms (see table 1).
• The DPT 5.001 allocates the first 512 address on the KNX bus. After that the DPT 1.001 and DPT 3.007.
• Finally, the sequence commands, a test function and dimming parameters are coded.

Group Address Allocation Lower Group (bi-level KNX Address Room):
Set Channel Value:
Addresses 0 – 511
DMX bus.
with DPT 5.001 1 byte value ( 0 .. 100% )
To set a 1 byte value, use the lower group addresses 0-511 which correspond to the channels 1-512 on the Switch Channel Value:
with DPT 1.001 1 bit Value (Switching)
Addresses 512 – 1023
Using a switch, this function can be used to switch every channel separately.
When the value is 0 the channel is switched off (0), when it is 1 the saved value in sequence 8 is accessed and transmitted to the DMX512 bus.
Every DMX channel can be independently switched.

Group Address Allocation Lower Group (bi-level KNX Address Room):

• Before the values are transmitted, there must be defined values saved in Sequence 8.
• This is the case for default settings at the time of delivery (255 for all channels.
• To reset the default settings use either the defined value with DPT 5.001 (group address ×/0-511) or the function „Central On” (group address ×/1552) all values to 255.
• Then save this to Sequence 8 (group address ×/1551).
• This establishes a maximum value for every channel.

Dimming Channel: with DPT 3.007: 4 bit Value (Dimming)
Addresses 1024 – 1535

Table 1:
Possible Dimming Value as 4 bit Object:

• 0 =Stop
• 1 = 100% down
• 2 = 50% down
• 3 = 25% down
• 4 = 12% down
• 5 = 6% down
• 6 = 3% down
• 7 = 1% down
• 8 = Stop
• 9 = 100% up
• 10 = 50% up
• 11 = 25% up
• 12 = 12% up
• 13 = 6% up
• 14 = 3% su
• 15 = 1% up

Using the automatic dimming function affects the performance when a dimming telgram is received.
