ETS object definitions.

Location:

<WorkspaceDirectory>\DataFiles\nxaKNXObjectDefinitions.dat

! This definition file can also be generated using the ETS app import wizard (Studio → KNX → Inport NETx ETS App file ...) which generates the ETS object definitions from an exported ETS project.

Within this configuration file, the KNX communication objects as represented in the item tree are specified. The structure of the definition file is as follows:

Each line – except comment lines that start with ' – defines a single communication object.
! The ETS object definitions within this file are automatically created by the NETx BMS App. Therefore, editing it manually is not necessary in general.


1	Name	This parameter refers to the name of the communication object.
2	Object function	Here the name of the function of the communication object is specified.
3	Device name	This is the device name to which the communication object belongs to.
4	Path	This column defines the path within the ETS view where the communication object is shown.
5	Communication flag	The KNX communication flag of the communication object. For more information see ETS documentation.
6	Read flag	The KNX read flag of the communication object. For more information see ETS documentation.
7	Write flag	The KNX write flag of the communication object. For more information see ETS documentation.
8	Transmit flag	The KNX transmit flag of the communication object. For more information see ETS documentation.
9	Update flag	The KNX update flag of the communication object. For more information see ETS documentation.
10	Read on init flag	The KNX read on init flag of the communication object. For more information see ETS documentation.
11	Physical address	The physical address of the device where the communication object is located.
12	Reserved	Not used.
13	Group addresses (first one is sending)	The KNX group addresses that are linked to the communication object. The first group address is the sending group address i.e. the address which is used for send whenever the communication object changes its value.
