ETS FAQs

The implementation of a KNX network begins with the ETS project.

Does the ‘Bus Connection’ property require configuration in ETS?

No. To import devices from an exported ETS Project file it is not necessary to configure the Bus Connection property in ETS.

Can I discover points from different ETS projects and add them to the same device?

Yes you can. You can also add points from different projects that use different Group Address Style strategies. It is possible to mix points from Two Level, Three Level and Free Group Address styles in the same device.

A password-protected dialogue opens when I try to discover devices and points. Why is this and what password do I enter?

The KNX ETS can export a project with a password. The KNXnet/IP driver can open the project when you present the correct credentials. You will need to enter the same password used to set up the ETS project.
