(question)(question)TODO: Recheck Names and Fields 

...

Info

! This definition file can also be generated using the NETxKNXConvertETS App ETS app import wizard (Studio → KNX → Inport NETx ETS App file ...) which generates the KNX datapoint group address definitions from an exported ETS project. For more information.

1log.KNX Address
 

It defines the logical KNX group address of the datapoint. The KNX group address can be specified either in three level form (e.g. 0/2/1) or in tow level form (e.g. 0/513).
2IP Address
 

It specifies the IP address of the KNXnet/IP device to which the specified KNX group address is assigned. Thus, it defines KNXnet/IP device that is used to send and receive KNX telegrams that are originated to this group address. The name "BROADCAST" defines a KNX datapoint which is sent to all defined gateways.

...



Info
! The logical KNX group address together with the IP address of the KNXnet/IP device define the effective address of the KNX datapoint. This effective address is internally used by the server. Using this addressing scheme, it is possible to use the same KNX group address for multiple KNX datapoints as long as they are assigned to different KNXnet/IP devices. This means that behind each gateway an independent ETS address space can exist. Theoretically up to 1000 ETS projects with the same address space are possible within the system.

 

...






   3Priority 
It defines the KNX priority that is used to send KNX group telegrams. Possible values are SYSTEM, HIGH, ALARM and LOW. The standard value "LOW" should be used in general.

...


! Columns 4 to 7 define how to interpret the received data of a KNX datapoint. At least two of these attributes has to defined to specify the semantic of a datapoint. All possible combinations are listed in the data type table.

 

...






4Data Size 
It defines the size of the datapoint. Possible values are: 1BIT, 2BIT, 4BIT, 1BYTE, 2BYTE, 3BYTE, 4BYTE, 10BYTE, 14BYTE.
5EIS Type 
Using this column, the data types is specify by defining the EIB Interworking Standard (EIS) type.
6Signed/Unsigned 
This attribute specifies whether the data type is a signed or unsigned one.
7Unit 
It defines engineering units of the KNX datapoint. It has to be selected from the list.
8Description 
This attribute can be used to specify a human-readable text that further describes the datapoint.
9(deprecated) Path 
This attribute is used for the automatic PDA visualization to create a tree structure like "Home/Level1/living room".
10(deprecated) Control Data 
This attribute is used for additional input data for the automatic PDA visualization.
11(deprecated) Alias 
This attribute can be used to define an alias name for this KNX datapoint. This alias is shown within the server item tree under the sub tree "Alias".
12Read on Reconnect 
This attribute is used to define whether a KNX Read telegram shall be sent when the corresponding KNXnet/IP gateway reconnects or when the server is started. If this functionality is activated, the read flag has to be set within the corresponding KNX device using ETS.
13Read Cyclically Interval 
This attributed is used to define whether cyclic KNX Read telegrams be sent to retrieve the current value of the datapoint. If this functionality is activated, the read flag has to be set within the corresponding KNX device using ETS. Note that cyclically reading KNX datapoints consumes bandwidth within the KNX lines. The allowed maximum Value is 65535 s with is identical to 18,20 h.
14Persistent 
This parameter specifies whether the value of the datapoint is persistent (restored from the database after server start up ) or not.
15Historical 
This parameter specifies whether historical values of the datapoint are stored within the database or not.
16Synchronize 
If this parameter is set to "True (T)", the value is synchronized between the main and backup server (if present). This will work only if synchronize is enabled in the NMESH configuration of the NETx BMS Core Server.
17IN Converter 
At this parameter you are able to define a LUA function, which can be used for INcoming conversion. E.g. InConv()
18OUT Converter 
At this parameter you are able to define a LUA function, which can be used for OUTgoing conversion. E.g. OutConv()
