CODESYS KNX

I/O channel configuration, protocol stack and workflow for data exchange with ETS5, fully integrated in the IEC 61131-3 development system

Integrated KNX support in CODESYS

As a fieldbus for building automation, KNX is the successor of the EIB, BatiBus and EHS fieldbuses. Technologically, KNX is a compatible enhancement of the EIB, extended to include important configuration mechanisms and transmission media.

Functional scope of the KNX integration in CODESYS

Integrated configurator for I/O channels in the CODESYS Development System
Integrated I/O driver
KNXnet/IP protocol stack in form of a runtime system component for CODESYS Control
Data exchange function with the ETS configuration system

KNX Integration in CODESYS

Benefits

Unique solution for connecting a PLC to the KNX building protocol
Easy data exchange with the ETS configuration system: CODESYS users work in CODESYS, ETS users work in ETS.
Intelligent update and merge mechanism between CODESYS and ETS
Flexible engineering of building input and output data including functionalities like the visualization in a web browser displayed on tablets or smartphones
Gateway function between KNX and other protocols like BACnet or OPC UA for example
New possibilities in building automation by combining room and HVAC automation

How can you obtain and implement the KNX solution integrated in CODESYS?

You are a system integrator or a user in the machine/plant construction sector or the like:
Use controllers equipped with CODESYS KNX support. Ask your controller supplier for a CODESYS-compatible controller with CODESYS KNX.
You are a manufacturer of programmable devices:
Implement the KNX runtime system component on your hardware. All you need for this implementation is the CODESYS Runtime Toolkit with CODESYS KNX.
