NXB-KNX Operation/Reference Guide
Description
Note: Creates a Telegram on KNX (For synchronization of master-to-master
connection, only use GET command).
Syntax:
POLL=<No>
POLL?<No>
Parameters:
• <No> = AMX Number of Actuator (range = 1 - 3000)
Examples:
SEND_COMMAND dvKNX,'POLL=17'
SEND_COMMAND dvKNX,'POLL?17'
Syntax:
POLLDELAY=<Value>
Parameters:
• <Value> = 0-2 (default = 1)
Note: 0 stands for very fast and should not be used, because otherwise the
NXB-KNX would create a high bus load. For installations with slow bus couplers
(BCU1), the value 2 should be selected.
Example:
SEND_COMMAND dvKNX,'POLLDELAY=2'
Requests current value of all actuators that have been configured with the 'PS' flag
(see Add=).
When the optional actuator range is specified, only those actuators are affected.
The POLLDELAY setting affects the rate poll commands are sent to the KNX bus.
• This command is typically sent at the completion of the NXB-KNX configuration.
• This command is automatically executed by the NXB-KNX when the KNX bus is
connected.
Syntax:
POLLSTART [<No>-<No2>]
Parameters:
• <No> = AMX Number of Actuator (range = 1 - 3000) (Start)
• <No2> = AMX Number of Actuator (range = 1 - 3000) (End)
Example:
POLLSTART
POLLSTART 25-75
Syntax:
SEARCH <Groupaddress>
Note: Here 2 and 3 grouped mapping is accepted.
Caution: The addresses 7 / 715 and 7 / 2 /203 are i.e. identical KNX group
addresses.
Example:
SEND_COMMAND dvKNX,'SEARCH 1/0/101'
