Figure 24: Example of a possible KNX topology with a KNX TP USB data interface
- Use of a KNX IP data interface (KNXnet/IP) (Figure 25):
An IP connection of the ETS can also be used to commission or diagnose devices in a
KNX RF environment. Here too, it is essential that a media coupler is available, which first
connects the appropriate RF line in the correct manner with a TP line (main line of a TP
area) and then with the IP environment (IP backbone) via a suitable IP router or an IP data
interface.
If the media coupler is a backbone coupler, then the backbone must possess the media
type "TP". A KNX IP environment cannot then be implemented (the ETS prevents such a
topology)!
