The KNX Modbus gateway RP-C-EXT-KNX connects to the RP-C controllers and provides an interface between the controller and KNX devices such as push-buttons, sensors, and control units for lights, blinds, and room temperature.

The KNX Modbus gateway allows bi-directional control and monitoring of all parameters and functions of the connected KNX devices. Up to 250 KNX data points (10 KNX devices) can be connected to the KNX Modbus gateway.

The KNX Modbus gateway is a Modbus to KNX interface that connects to one of the RP-C controller's configurable RS-485 ports. The Modbus RTU protocol is used for the communication between the RP-C controller and the KNX Modbus gateway. The RP-C controller acts the Modbus client and the KNX Modbus gateway as a server. The RP-C controller also provides 24 VDC power supply to the KNX Modbus gateway through the RS-485 interface. Maximum one KNX Modbus gateway can be connected to each RP-C controller.

The KNX Modbus gateway provides a galvanic isolation between the RP-C Modbus network and the KNX bus. The KNX Modbus gateway can be used with a standard Schneider Electric KNX power supply to power the KNX devices on the KNX bus.

The KNX Modbus gateway can be programmed through ETS© for installation, configuration, and commissioning of KNX devices. The assignment between KNX objects and Modbus registers is configured in ETS. The completed configuration in ETS is exported to a JSON file, which is then imported into the EcoStruxure Building Operation software to create the Modbus input and output points for the Modbus device proxy object (representation of the KNX Modbus gateway). Für weitere Informationen siehe ETS and the KNX Modbus Gateway .

The KNX Modbus gateway is designed for installation on a DIN rail.

The KNX Modbus gateway has two push-buttons and three LEDs on the front to enable local operation of the device and status indication.
