Introduction Notes on this addendum manual Subject of this addendum manual is the operation of the Control Delta SPA Control Box or the Condair Omega via the Modbus or KNX interface. This addendum manual is intended for use by engineers and properly trained technical personnel. Please read this manual thoroughly before installing and configuring the corresponding interfaces.
Condair Group AG. It is assumed that all persons working on the Modbus or KNX interface of the Condair Delta SPA Control Box or the Condair Omega are familiar and comply with the appropriate regulations on work safety and the prevention of accidents.

"Off" position against inadvertent switching on. Preventing unsafe operation If it is suspected that safe operation of the SPA systems is no longer possible, the Condair Delta SPA Control Box or the Condair Omega should immediately be shut down and secured against ac- cidental power-up.
Every Modbus device address can only be allocated once within the same network. The Condair Omega or the Condair Delta SPA Control box always acts as a slave. In the master-slave principle, only the master (e.g., control computer) can initiate data transmission. The affected slave (Condair Omega or Condair Delta SPA Control box) responds to this and delivers the queried data to the master or performs the action requested by the master.
To connect the Modbus interface, proceed as follows: 1. Switch off the Condair Delta SPA Control Box or the Condair Omega via the unit switch. Set the external electrical isolator(s) in the mains supply/supplies to "Off" and secure the electrical isolator(s) in the off position against unintentional switching on.

Modbus Parameters If a SPA control board is operated in system mode "Wellness Dual", 2 cabins can be controlled (dual cabin application for small cabins). In all other cases, only the parameters for cabin 1 are relevant and all parameters for the cabin 2 can be neglected. Note: For dual cabin application for medium size cabins, two SPA control boards are required, both of them must be connected to the Modbus network.

All SPA control boards that are to be controlled must be connected to the KNX Gateway via the Modbus interface according to the wiring diagram above. – Connect the cable shield on one side with the functional earth – Connect all GND together –...
Connection of the KNX gateway to a KNX network 24V in KNX Gateway LM5-L RS485 RS485/RS232 SPA control board 1 SPA control board 2 (Server ID= 0) (Server ID= 1) Fig. 5: Connecting the KNX gateway to a KNX network The KNX Gateway is connected to the KNX network according to the wiring diagram above.
To connect the gateway, proceed as follows: 1. Switch off the Condair Delta SPA Control Box or the Condair Omega via the unit switch. Set the external electrical isolator(s) in the mains supply/supplies to "Off" and secure the electrical isolator(s) in the off position against unintentional switching on.

The current data value of each KNX group address can be read with "GroupRead". Partitioning of the group address: Part_1/Part_2/Part_3 Part_1: SPA Control unit 10: Condair Omega steam generator or Condair Delta SPA Control Box Part_2: System range 10/0: Basic system settings 10/1: Cabin 1 10/2: Cabin 2 (only relevant if a system with dual cabin application is used).
Control with Amazon Echo (Alexa) In order to control a device with Alexa, a valid Amazon Echo account must be set up. The following link provides step-by-step instructions on how to integrate Alexa voice control into the gateway: http://openrb.com/amazon-echo-alexa-integration/ The following steps show an example of how Alexa speech commands can be defined: 1.
