 Technical Manual IP Interface – SCN-IP000.02

2 Overview
The MDT IP Interface, SCN IP000.02, has 2 parallel applications.
On the one hand there is one application for the IP Interface (Step 1), which allows access to the bus
via Ethernet.
The second application (Step 2) is on the TP side and can send by KNX triggered emails, serve as a
time server and provides access to the device via a Web-Interface.

Table 1: Database for applications

Important: As these are 2 different applications, both applications must be programmed

independently. The IP interface must get 2 physical addresses!

Specifics:
 Use as a time server
 Extensive email functionality with status information from the KNX bus
 Supplied completely from the KNX bus, no additional power supply required!

2.1 Areas of application IP-Interface

The MDT IP interface connects the KNX bus with an Ethernet network. Through the network, KNX
telegrams can be sent to other devices or received from. For communication, the device uses the
KNXnet / IP protocol of the KNX Association. It thus operates as a programming interface and
replaces a RS232 or USB interface.
The IP interface includes a tunneling function for point-to-point connection.
The power is supplied via the KNX bus.

2.2 Areas of application E-Mail Client

The email client can emit status reports, bit alarms and text alarms. All email events can be triggered
via KNX telegrams. In addition, status reports can also be sent at fixed times - the email client has the
functionality to work as a clock-master. All e-mails can be sent to up to 3 addresses simultaneously.
The settings of the e-mail functionality can be carried out comfortably via the web interface.

2.3 Areas of application Timeserver

The IP Interface receives the date and time of the NTP server and can distribute them as the
"master" to further KNX devices via the bus.

2.5 Commissioning

The following procedure is recommended for commissioning the SCN-IP000.02:

1. Configuration of the IP-Interface:
2. Transfer of the physical address and the application of the IP Interface. For this, the
programming button must be pressed shortly. The programming LED lights steady red.
3. After successful transfer of the physical address and the application, the red LED turns off
again.
4. Configuration of the E-Mail Client:
5. Transfer of the physical address and the application of the E-Mail Client. For this, the
programming button must be pressed long. The programming LED flashes red.
6. After successful transfer of the physical address and the application, the red LED turns off
again.
7. Accessing the Web client to configure the e-mail addresses by opening an Internet browser
and call the address: http:\\IP address: port, for example: http: \\192.168.1.178:8080 for the
IP address 192.168 .1.178 and the http port 8080

Important: If the IP address of the IP interfaces gets changed subsequently, the device must perform
a reboot. This restart is not performed automatically by the application programming in the ETS4/5.
Here, a manual restart will be required, which either by right-clicking on the device and selecting
"Reset device" is executed or a short removing of the bus connector.

 Technical Manual IP Interface – SCN-IP000.02
The assignment of the IP address of the device can be done either manually or by a DHCP server, this
is often available in DSL routers.
When selecting DHCP - do not use , the IP configuration can be set manually.
When selecting "DHCP – use , a DHCP server must assign a valid IP address to the KNX / IP router. If
there is no DHCP server available, the router restarts after a certain waiting period with an AutoIP
address (address range of 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255). Once a DHCP server is available, it
automatically assignes a new IP address to the device.

IP-address
The IP address must be allocated so that the bytes 1-3 are the same as those of the communicating
computers. So the membership is given on the network. The 4th byte must be any available IP
address (0-255) on the network, so as to avoid addressing conflicts.

The subnet mask is used for the device to determine whether a communication partner is located in
the local network. Should not be a partner in the local network, the device does not send the
telegrams directly to the partner but to the gateway, which handles the routing.
The setting of the gateway makes it possible for networks, which are based on different protocols to
communicate with each other.
Note: If the KNX IP Interface is only be used in the local LAN, the entry can remain 0.0.0.0.

The network settings of the communicating computers can be read in the network settings of the PC.

3.2.1 Example of assigning IP addresses

A KNX IP interface to be accessed via PC. The PC has the following IP settings:
IP address of the PC: 192.168.1.30
Subnet of the PC: 255.255.255.0

Is the KNX IP Interface located in the same local LAN, i.e. it uses the same subnet, the assignment of
the IP address is restricted by the subnet. That means in this example the IP address of the IP router
has to be 192.168.1.xx. xx can be a number from 1 to 254 (with the exception of 30, which has
already been used). It must be ensured, no numbers are assigned twice. The following settings can
therefore be made in the IP Interface:
IP address of the IP Interface: 192.168.1.31
Subnet of the IP Interface: 255.255.255.0

3.3.3 More than one connection

The KNX IP router / KNX IP interface supports up to 4 simultaneous connections. The first physical
address is adjusted as described under 3.3 in the ETS connections. In the Web-Interface, the further
physical addresses can be assigned automatically pressi g the “et utto i the e u
Prog.Mode :

Figure 11: Set Tunneling Addresses in "Prog.Mode"

Now the 3 following physical addresses are assigned. If, for example, the IP Interface has got the first
tunneling address assigned to the physical address 15.15.241, so the device provides further
tunneling addresses automatically to 15.15.242, 15.15.243 and 15.15.244. When the first address
was assigned to x.x.255, so the further tunneling addresses are not assigned automatically!

Macros

In order to display values in emails, macros can be used. The following macros are available:
 $D$ -> If this macro is inserted in the text, so the IP interface replaces this by the device
name.
 $T$ -> If this macro is inserted into the text, so the IP interface replaces this to the date
and time at which the e-mail event was triggered.
 $Nxx$ -> If this macro is inserted into the text so the IP Interface replace it with the name of
the Status element "xx". Should, e.g. the name of the Status element 11 be displayed, so
must be entered $N11$. For the Status element 1 it is enough to enter $N1$.
 $Vxx$ -> If this macro is inserted into the text, so the IP interface replaces this with the
value of Status elements „ . Should, e.g. the value of the Status element 11 be displayed,
so must be entered $V11$. For the Status element 1 it is enough to enter $V1$.
 A semicolon creates a line break, or writes the first part before the semicolon in the subject
line of the email.

Examples:
For the following examples the device name MDT is gi e . The status ele ent 1 has the name
"light kitchen" and the data point type 1 bit switching.
1) Texts for E-Mail: $D$ $T$ $N1$ $V1$
A e ail ith the su je t it alarm: MDT ill e sent. The text of the e-mail is:
MDT date-time light kitchen OFF
Since nothing is separated by a semicolon, the whole text is put into the description field of
the e-mail and used for the subject of the default-subject. The macros in the text field will be
replaced by the IP interface and lined up
2) Texts for E-Mail: $D$; $T$; $N1$: $V1$
A e ail ith the su je t MDT ill e se t. The text of the e-mail is:
Date –Time
Light Kitchen: OFF (depending on the current value)
The semicolons separate the name of the device as subject and the text of the email. After
that date, an additional line break is generated.

4.2.5 Specific behavior and error handling

In the e-mail functionality the following points should be noted:

 From technical reasons, between two e-mails is a 5 second break provided for an error-free
processing.
 E-mails are sent only with current time. Therefore, it is checked whether ever a time via NTP
was received. If not, the emails are sent out after 5 minutes with the start date 01/01/1970
00:00.

Error code-object:
The error code object is set and sent when …
 the email was 4 times tried to transmit and this failed every time and the previous email
delivery was without error or it was the first email after a restart. Between the attempts,
the subsequent delays will be respected:
o Delay before first repeat: 10 seconds
o Delay before second repeat: 1 minute
o Delay before third repeat: 10 minutes
 the email was tried 1 time to be sent and it failed, and the previous e-mail delivery was
also flawed.
The following table shows the corresponding communication object:
Number Name Lenght Usage
52 E-Mail – Error code 1 Bit Sending an error
Table 20: Communication object - E-mail Error code

E-Mail buffer:
It can be buffered 10 emails.
 From the 8th Mail in the buffer, an alarm will be sent to the bus.
 When the buffer is full, additional email requests are rejected
 All values that are displayed in the bit alarm emails respectively status emails can only
send the currently valid value at the time of shipment.
Example:
o T=0: Status element 3 = OFF
o T=10: Status element 3 = ON
o If at the time t=0 the mail delivery is triggered (for example, via object), the e-
mail but only at the time t=10s is emitted, the value "On" in the email will be
inserted.
The following table shows the corresponding communication object:
Number Name Lenght Usage
51 E-Mail buffer – overflow 1 Bit Indicates an overflow of the e-mail buffer
