The KNX IP BAOS 771 is used as interface to connect to KNX/EIB both on telegram level (KNXnet/IP Tunneling) and on data-point level (KNX Application Layer). BAOS stands for “Bus Access and Object Server”. This device can be used with ETS as a programming interface. As ObjectServer the device supports up to 250 data points. It is possible to connect to KNX/EIB-Bus (telegrams) as well as to data points (communication objects) via LAN and MyURemote.
Why MyURemote is the KNX app for you?
- The way for anyone who’s looking for an easy and affordable way to use an iPhone / iPad or Android as home control is to combine MyURemote with a Baos EIB/KNX Gateway.
- You decide how many sliders and buttons are needed to control all your lights, screens, curtains (including scenarios), etc…
- You can control the objects divided into zones and each zone can provide an unlimited number of controls.
- MyURemote receives live indications (e.g. status feedback) and visualises the status of every home object.
- Create your own scenario’s using macro buttons (without a home server or any other expensive ‘smart’ device).
- Combine home theater control and home control in one app.
- MyURemote app
- Home Network
- Baos EIB/KNX-Bus interface (More about the suitable weinzierl products)
- KNX domotics home control system
Setup
- Use ETS software and do the IP settings as well as the data points for your Weinzierl BAOS gateway.
- The domotics parameters are called “datapunkt” (= related to the group adresses) you want to control or vizualise.
Important: to receive a correct statusfeedback, and if you want to use the predefined KNX commands in your macro buttons you have to:
– Use datapoints 1-40 for 1-bit group addresses.
– Use datapoints 41-80 for 1-byte group addresses.
– Use datapoints 81-160 for status feedback group addresses.
– The desired format of the datapoint value for Dimmers is DPT5 8 Bit Unsigned Value!
– The desired format of the datapoint value for Screens is DPT1 1 Bit (Boolean, up-down) and DPT5 8 Bit for status return!
– Other datapoint formats (e.g. DPT17 for screens need to be stored from datapoint 161
- Open the webbrowser and goto myuremote.com/configuration.
- Log in to your configuration.
Choose how you want to control your domotics interface:
Home control using Macro Buttons in the AV Interface.
- Add the BAOS gateway to your devices
- Open the zone you want to add macro buttons and add the BAOS to the additional, non-visible devices.
- Goto MACROS and add a new. Select the successive commands you want to send to your BAOS.
Home control using the Domotics Interface.
- goto: https://www.myuremote.com/userconfig/pages/settings (NOT IONICS SETTINGS!)
- Click on “My Controllers”, “Add controller”, select “Baos 771 KNX Home Control“
- The BAOS and your mobile should be connected to the same LAN. Enter the IP address of your BAOS in the controller settings.
- If you don’t know know the IP of your BAOS you have to check the properties of the BAOS in ETS.
- Goto the Settings tab, click on “My Tabs”. Edit your “Home control” tab or create one.
- For each element, click “Add element”, enter label, element type and domotics parameter.
