Quick start

The basic steps to configure a station to communicate with a KNX system involve setting up Workbench, commissioning the Supervisor or JACE platform and configuring input proxy points.
  1. Plan and then configure the KNX system using the ETS (Engineering Tool Software).
    This software is separate from the Niagara Workbench
  2. Using ETS, export the ETS Project. This provides the source of KNX system data for the KNXnet/IP driver.
  3. Copy the KNXnet/IP driver modules to the C:\Niagara\Framework-n.n.nn\Modules folder, where Framework-n.n.nn is the version of the
  4. Commission the remote controller platform.
    Commissioning is documented in the controller guide.
  5. Set up a KnxNetwork in the station.
    The detailed procedures in this guide begin with this step.
  6. Update the KNX Data Defs (data definitions).
  7. Configure the connection.
  8. Set up one or more KNX devices in the station.
  9. Set up one or more KNX points in the station.
  10. Set up alarms and other components.
    For information on how to set up alarms, refer to Niagara Alarms Guide.
