KNX USB Interface

Application area

This interface is for establish a bidirectional connection between a PC and the EIB/KNX installation bus. The USB connector has a galvanic separation from the EIB/KNX bus. Both ETS (Engineering Tool Software) versions ETS and some computer-based tools, e.g. visualizations, support this interface.
