Programming KNX interface

By clicking on the PrimeLAN settingsbutton on the menu on the left, you will access the
"Programming KNX" section.
This section contains three further sections, one for setting the parameters of the KNX
gateway and communicating with it, the other boards for translating of signals to and from the
KNX system.
Enable KNX function This option enables communication between Prime and KNX systems.

gateway.
When necessary for the security system, it is a good idea for the installer to create an
additional Prime user equipped with a PIN code, capable of carrying out commands and
actions from KNX devices even when validation from the Prime control panel is required.
This section allows you to define which panel events must be communicated to the KNX
system via commands or actions and to translate these into "KNX telegrams".
These events (maximum of 3000) are added to the list below via the appropriate button
Value Check box to indicate the event type.

Element category Check box to indicate the category of the element that defines the event itself.
Check boxes to enter the KNX telegram to be sent following the corresponding

event.
... Button to open the "Add KNX telegram" window.
Delete Button to delete the corresponding event from the list
The "Add KNX telegram" window, which is opened by the button ..., provides the Open button
to open ".esf" format files, the solution files of KNX programming software.
Once one of these solutions has been selected the window will show a tree structure with the
various elements of the KNX system and the relative telegrams. A double click on one of these
items allows you to import the telegram into the appropriate box.
This section allows you to define which signals from the KNX system in the form of "KNX
telegrams" must be communicated to the Prime control panel and which actions must be
performed.
These events are added to the list below via the appropriate button
3000 actions.
