The IntesisBox Gateway has been specially designed to allow bidirectional control and monitoring of all parameters and functionalities of BACnet server devices from a KNX installation.
IntesisBox is a BACnet/IP client device allowing to read/write points of other BACnet/IP device(s) connected to a BACnet network, and offering these point's values through its
KNX/EIB interface.
BACnet interface of IntesisBox supports reading of other BACnet devices by continuous polling or by subscription requests (COV). Points of BACnet devices can be read/written from KNX.
On the KNX side, IntesisBox simulates a KNX device and acts as if it was one more device into the KNX system.
The IntesisBox's KNX EIB interface connects directly to the EIB bus and is opto-isolated from the rest of the internal electronics. Any point in IntesisBox can be configured individually for different functionality.
To allow read requests, to allow write requests, to automatically send a write request to the KNX bus when its value changes, and to send a read request to the KNX bus when IntesisBox starts-up or after a bus reset.
For each point, one main group address and different listening group addresses can be defined. This useful feature allows actions on the same internal point from multiple KNX group addresses.
