Address tree

 (B)

:

 Shows group addresses for this project, including both regular group addresses 

and internal group addresses. 

 

Parameter area

 (C)

:

 When an item is selected in the project or address trees, this area will show 

any configurable parameters that are available for this item. 

 

5.3 Menus 

File Menu 
 
The File menu contains commands to open and save projects, and to exit the application. 
 

Project Menu 
 
The “Import addresses...” command imports group addresses from a file in OPC-Server format (.esf) 
generated by the ETS software application. If you select this action for a project where group 
addresses already exist, two options are provided: 
 

-

 

Add new addresses to the existing address tree

: Any addresses in the .esf file that were not 

already present in the project will be added. The existing addresses in the project will remain 
unchanged. 

 

-

 

Discard existing addresses

: All the addresses in the project (as well as any associations with 

communication objects) will be discarded, and all the addresses included in the .esf file will be 
imported. 

 
The “Resource monitor” command shows the list of resources currently in use in the project (maps, 
zones, pages, scenes, time schedules, logic gates, etc.) and resource limits (maximum number of 
items allowed for each type of resource). 
 
 

)

 

Please note: 

The maximum number of items allowed for each type depends on the system selected in the “Project” 
section of the project tree (HC1-KNX, HC2-KNX, and HC2L-KNX). 

 

 

Programming Menu 
 
The Programming menu contains commands that interact directly with the touch panel, for example to 
upload a project to the panel, or to update the unit firmware. 
 
All these commands require the screen to be in 

install mode

 (see Section 2.3). For all of them you 

will need to provide the IP address of the touch panel (shown on screen at startup in install mode), as 
well as the installer user name and password, whose default values are as follows: 
 
 

Option

 

Default Value

 

Installer user name

 

instalador 

Installer password

 

knxinstall
