KNX system, as if it was a part of the own KNX system. For this, IntesisBox KNX - Mitsubishi Electric G50 acts as a KNX device in the KNX installation allowing any KNX device to read and write its internal points.
Only needed for configuration software IntesisBox KNX continuously polls (read) all the G50's configured signals and maintains the updated status of all of them in its memory ready to be served when requested from KNX. When a change of status is detected in a Mitsubishi Electric signal, a write telegram is sent to the KNX bus, of the associated KNX Group.

KNX devices. IntesisBox does not drain any significant current from the KNX bus - it has a separate own power supply. Another important electrical aspect is that the KNX TP- 1 (EIB) port of IntesisBox is optically isolated (~2500Vrms AC) from all its other ports (EIA232, EIA485, Ethernet) and power supply.
ETS. This application is nor downloadable into IntesisBox KNX neither usable for IntesisBox configuration. Rather, it poses as a means of having a device in the ETS project representing the IntesisBox KNX and its own datapoints/communication objects, and to which group addresses are associated.
