RGK02 Operating Instructions General The Easywave KNX Gateway RGK02 (in the following called gateway) is a product of the KNX system and meets the KNX guidelines. Sufficient technical knowledge provided through KNX training courses is required for comprehension. The functions of the device are software-dependent. For detailed in- formation about the software that is currently available for download and the resulting function scope, refer to the manufacturer's internet site.
RGK02 Operating Instructions 1.2. Intended Use The bidirectional gateway links the KNX system and the Easywave radio system. It is a KNX-conform device, certified in acc. with EN 50090 and EN 300220. Only use the Easywave KNX Gateway RGK02 in dry indoor rooms. The manufacturer will not be liable for damage caused by improper or inappropriate use.
RGK02 Operating Instructions Information about the radio system General information and functionality With its extensive product range, the radio system "Easywave" is the complete system for all applications in building services engineering. The 868 MHz wave band with its division into sub-bands (e.g. sub-band 868.0 MHz to 868.6 MHz) and different duty cycles is ideally suited for sophisticated tasks.

RGK02 Operating Instructions ON/OFF (2-button operation) With 2-button operation, the receiver switches directly ON and OFF. Keycode A: ON Keycode C: ON Keycode B: OFF Keycode D: OFF A, B as well as C and D are assigned automatically. Only one of these keycodes must be programmed.

RGK02 Operating Instructions For example, if the shutter moves UP (A), it is stopped initially when pressing the button for the opposite direction (B) and DOWN when pressing the button (B) again. Keycode A: UP/STOP Keycode C: UP/STOP Keycode B: DOWN/STOP Keycode D: DOWN/STOP A, B as well as C and D are assigned automatically.
Integrating the database file in the ETS3.0f Fundamental knowledge of the engineering tool software (ETS) is required to integrate the database. Download the file "RGK02.vd5" from the ELDAT internet page www.eldat.de. Import the vd5 file into the ETS3 software via FILE IMPORT RGK02.vd5 Now the device information is available in the ETS3.

RGK02 Operating Instructions Afterwards, the gateway is displayed with the following functions in the current project: (2 send objects, 2 receive objects and the 3 system objects) Overview of all available functions System objects Receive objects Send objects (see chapter 4.1) (see chapter 4.2) (see chapter 4.3) Programming a chan-...
RGK02 Operating Instructions Programming the physical address An unequivocal physical address must be assigned to the newly created gateway in the KNX bus system. 1. Right-click on the menu item "Pro- gram" in the menu "Topology". The "Program" window appears. 2.
RGK02 Operating Instructions Functions and object properties KNX programming and assignment of the Easywave radio products to the individual objects (programming and deleting) is done with the ETS. System objects The three system objects are required for the administration of the Easywave send codes.
RGK02 Operating Instructions 4.1.1 Teaching in a channel The system object 641 serves for teaching in Easywave send codes. The teach-in process is initiated by transmitting the desired memory slot number (value from 1 to 128) to the respective group object. 1.
RGK02 Operating Instructions 4.1.2 Deleting a channel The system object 642 serves for deleting specific Easywave send codes. Direct deletion of a send code is initiated by sending the value for the memory slot (1- 128) to the corresponding group object. 1.
RGK02 Operating Instructions 4.1.3 Delete all channels The system object 643 serves for deleting all programmed Easywave send codes. Deletion of all send codes is initiated by sending [1] to the corresponding group object. 1. To do so, open the group monitor (menu Diagnosis/Group telegrams) and clock on Read/send.
RGK02 Operating Instructions Creating receive objects The receive objects serve for the implementation of Easywave operating modes in the KNX Bus. Altogether 128 memory slots are available for Easywave serial numbers. The receive objects are divided into 16 groups (E to T); each group has eight receive functions.
RGK02 Operating Instructions The receive objects can be assigned to one of the following KNX functions: − Toggle − Switch − Dim − Shutters − Set value − Signal 4.2.1 Toggle Data type 1 bit Number of objects (A) toggle, (B) toggle, (C) toggle, (D) toggle Object behaviour (A): Toggle [1] or [0]...
RGK02 Operating Instructions After pressing the corresponding button of a programmed transmitter, the functions are transferred to the KNX bus by the gateway. A corresponding 4-channel transmitter is required to be able to use all four objects of a channel. 4.2.2 Switch Data type...
RGK02 Operating Instructions After pressing the corresponding button of a programmed transmitter, the functions are transferred to the KNX bus by the gateway. 4.2.4 Shutters Data type 1 bit Number of objects (A/B) shutter short-time; (A/B) shutter long- time; Optional objects (C) shutter stop;...
RGK02 Operating Instructions Optionally, you can define only a short or only a long-time command for the buttons A/B, which is then executed directly. This way it is not necessary to press a button for 1.6 s to trigger a long-time command. In addition, it is also possible to define both another short and a long-time object for the send code C/D OR a separate STOP command (C only).
RGK02 Operating Instructions 4.2.6 Send signal Data type 1 bit Number of objects (A) signal, (B) signal, (C) signal, (D) signal Optional objects none Object behaviour (A): (A=[1]|[0]) upon receiving (C): (C=[1]|[0]) (B): (B=[1]|[0]) (D): (D=[1]|[0]) Parameters Signal type [0] or [1] Four 1-bit objects (one object for each keycode) are generated in this operating mode.
RGK02 Operating Instructions Creating send objects The send objects serve to address Easywave receivers from the KNX bus. Altogether 32 send objects are available in the gateway. Each object can send out an Easywave serial number with up to four different keycodes depending on the selected function.
RGK02 Operating Instructions 4.3.1 1-button operation Data type 1 bit Number of objects (A) 1-button, (B) 1-button, (C) 1-button, (D) 1-button Object behaviour at [0] Sending of the respective keycode at [1] Sending of the respective keycode Easywave operating Impulse, timer modes ON/OFF (1-button operation) In this operating mode, four 1 bit objects are created for the respective channel.
RGK02 Operating Instructions 4.3.2 2-button operation Data type 1 bit Number of objects (A/B) 2-button + (C/D) 2-button Object behaviour at [0] Sending of [B] or [D] at [1] Sending of [A] or [C] Easywave operating ON/OFF (2-button operation) modes UP/DOWN (2-button operation) Two objects (A/B and C/D) are generated in this operating mode for the respective channel.
RGK02 Operating Instructions 4.3.3 3-button operation Data type 1 bit Number of objects (A/C) 3-button and (B/C) 3-button Object behaviour at [0] Sending of [C ] at [1] Sending of [A] or [B] (depending on the object) Easywave operating UP/STOP/DOWN modes (3-button operation) Two objects (A/C and B/C) are generated in this operating mode for the respective...
RGK02 Operating Instructions 4.3.4 Deadman Data type 1 bit Number of objects (A) deadman, (B) deadman, (C) deadman, (D) deadman Object behaviour at [0] Stop sending at [1] Start sending the respective keycode for the set duration Easywave operating Deadman mode Parameters Deadman...

RGK02 Operating Instructions The maximum send duration is set to a value between 1 and 31 seconds in the parame- ters. The standard value is 3 seconds. When receiving [1], the gateway starts transmit- ting the send code and stops when receiving [0]. After expiration of the set maximum send duration, the gateway automatically stops the transmission process.
