Gateway interface module EK-BN1-TP

DIN railKNXEthernet

Device working as a gateway (protocol conversion) between a PROFINET network and a KNX (TP) network. Slave function on PROFINET network. Mounting in distribution board on EN 60715 rail (4 modular units, each 18 mm). To be used in KNX installations for home and building automation. Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) communication port, RJ45 connector, at least 5E cable category PROFINET slave communication PROFINET register exchange Volatile support memory with �PROFINET image� buffer of 1440 bytes KNX TP (twisted pair) 9600 baud communication port, electrically insulated from power supply Volatile support memory with �image KNX� buffer of 1440 bytes The ekinex® gateway are modular devices for mounting in cabinets or distribution boards that allow the information exchange with one or several slave devices or with a master device that communicate on a serial diff erential RS485 (Modbus RTU/DMX/M-Bus/BACnet MSTP protocols) network or an Ethernet (Modbus TCP/BACnet IP/ Profi net protocols) network. The role of the gateway is as Modbus/M-Bus/DMX communication master or BACnet/ Profi net communication slave. The information exchanged on the Modbus/DMX/M-Bus/BACnet/Profi net network are updated on the KNX network with TP (twisted pair) transmission media. The device manages a bidirectional data fl ow: the Modbus/ DMX/M-Bus/BACnet/Profi net registers may be cyclically read and their value may be sent as a communication object on the KNX TP network to confi gured group addresses through a multicasting communication. The data updating on the KNX network may happen cyclically and/or on event at a change of the collected data from the Modbus/ DMX/M-Bus/BACnet/Profi net network.
