2 Description
IP KNX interface • Version: 13.03.2017 • Technical changes and errors excepted.
1. Description
The IP KNX interface serves to transmit data between the Mobotix IP cameras and
the KNX bus system. For this purpose, the KNX telegrams are converted into the Ether-
net protocols and sent to the LAN in which the cameras are installed (and vice versa).
Features:
• Communication with 8 IP cameras with 8 input and 8 output objects each
• Transfer of the camera events to the KNX bus
• Controlling the camera via the KNX bus
• KNX Bus Terminal and Ethernet / IP Connection (POE)
• Suitable for IP cameras that meet the communication requirements as
described in the camera settings in the manual
Configuration is made using the KNX software ETS. The product file can be downloa-
ded from the Elsner Elektronik website on www.elsner-elektronik.de in the “Ser-
vice” menu.

2. Installing and commissioning
2.1. Installation notes
Installation, testing, operational start-up and troubleshooting should
only be performed by an electrician.
CAUTION!
Live voltage! 
There are unprotected live components inside the device.
• National legal regulations are to be followed.
• Ensure that all lines to be assembled are free of voltage and take
precautions against accidental switching on.
• Do not use the device if it is damaged. 
• Take the device or system out of service and secure it against
unintentional use, if it can be assumed, that risk-free operation is no
longer guaranteed.
The device is only to be used for its intended purpose. Any improper modification or
failure to follow the operating instructions voids any and all warranty and guarantee
claims.
After unpacking the device, check it immediately for possible mechanical damage. If it
has been damaged in transport, inform the supplier immediately.
The device may only be used as a fixed-site installation; that means only when assem-
bled and after conclusion of all installation and operational start-up tasks and only in
the surroundings designated for it.
Elsner Elektronik is not liable for any changes in norms and standards which may occur
after publication of these operating instructions.

4 Installing and commissioning
IP KNX interface • Version: 13.03.2017 • Technical changes and errors excepted.
2.2. Setting up and connecting the device
2.3. Instructions for assembly and initial start-up
Never expose the device to water (e.g. rain). This can damage the electronics. A relative
air humidity of 90% must not be exceeded. Avoid condensation.
After the operating voltage has been applied, the device will enter an initialisation pha-
se lasting a few seconds. During this phase no information can be received or sent via
the bus.
