Note: The program automatically checks for the connection whether the selected group address
has the correct data type for the communication object. If this is not the case, the connection is
not possible and the group address cannot be connected.
DMX channel value distribution
If the value of a DMX channel falls below a value of 10% (25), a “0” is sent on the 1-bit KNX object. If
the value, however, exceeds the 10%, a “1” is sent on the 1-bit KNX object.
CONNECTION WITH PRE-DEFINED DEVICES
Besides the dimmer channels and the scenes, the group addresses can also be connected with DMX
devices previously defined in the
DMX-Configurator.
In this context, a DMX device can either consist of 3
(RGB lamp) or 4 (RGBW lamp) DMX channels. To control these devices directly by a group address, the
following data types must be used:
3 byte DPT 232.600 RGB, value [red 0 – 255, green 0 – 255, blue 0 – 255]
4 byte DPT 12.001 4 byte unsigned as RGBW, value [(0…4 294 967 295):
1st byte = red, 2nd byte = green, 3rd byte = blue, 4th byte = white]
To combine the individual DMX channels in devices, please proceed as described in the
chapter “
Device
management”
. Once the devices have been defined there, they appear automatically in the window
Device 1
(for DMX out 1) and
Device 2
(for DMX out 2). To create a connection, please proceed as
described below:
Simply drag the desired group address from the address tree at the left side to the
corresponding device at the right side. Then the group address is illustrated below the object.
(see also figure below)
Note: The program automatically checks for the connection whether the selected group address
has the correct data type for the communication object. If this is not the case, the connection is
not possible and the group address cannot be connected.
