1.4 Feature Summary
● Protect the device from moisture, dirt and damage.
●. The device needs no maintenance
● If necessary, the device can be cleaned with a dry cloth.
● Data connection between PC and KNX bus line.
● Suitable for usage with ETS. No extra application program necessary.
● KSU-01U supports extended frames and long telegrams up to 220 bytes APDU length.
● Access to every bus device in the KNX bus system for commissioning, addressing,
● Use of cEMI ("Common EMI") protocol.
● Galvanic isolated bi-directional access to KNX TP.
● Usage also without Falcon driver software.
● Support of Raw Mode, a special diagnostic mode.
● Can be used with EITT.
● Low current consumption.
● Installation module for 35mm top-hat rails (DIN, Th35).
● KSI-01U works without external power supply.
KSI-01U's ETS database entries are available for ETS4 and later.●
● No specific USB driver needed due to USB HID Profile.
(With all KSC couplers and UIM interfaces long messages e.g. for energy metering
setting parameters, visualization, protocolling and diagnostics.
applications and visualization purposes can be processed.)
● In the case of damage (at storage, transport) no repairs may be carried out by
unauthorized personnel.
2 Operational Description
In KNX network installations the KSI-01U can be used as KNX USB interface. After
establishing the USB connection, KSI-01U operates with its default settings. Setting
the correct physical address is necessary to include KSI-01U in the KNX bus
system.
Both LEDs lighting green show proper working of KNX bus connection and USB
connection. Lightning green means the connection is established. Blinking green
indicates the telegram traffic extent. In Microsoft Windows the KSI-01U is
recognized as HID (Human Interface Device). So, no extra drivers have to be
installed or downloaded.
The KSI-01U's ETS (dummy) database entry, e.g. for connecting a visualization
device, is available for ETS4 and upward. The database without parameters and
without communication objects can be added to an ETS project as usual.
Note: It is recommended to use USB cables that do not exceed 5 m.
Note: All screen shots are related to the KSI-01U database file in ETS5.
