1 Product Description
The KNX USB Interface KSI-01U provides a bi-directional data connection between
USB and KNX TP. PCs can be connected via USB and the bus system is galvanically
isolated. KSI-01U establishes access to all bus devices for commissioning,
addressing, setting parameters, visualization, protocolling, and diagnostic
operation. Operational states are shown by LEDs. KSI-01U is supplied by both KNX
TP and USB. No external power supply is necessary.
With the ETS (or compatible commissioning tool) KSI-01U works as the KNX
programming interface having no KNX communication objects for itself. Due to HID
profile support no specific USB driver is required. USB suspend mode is supported.
The protocol used for communication between interface and host is the flexible
“cEMI” protocol.
The connection between KNX and a PC with standard software (like ETS, EITT, also
in Raw Frame operating mode) or other software is handled by the Falcon driver.
KSI-01U supports extended frames and long messages with up to 220 byte APDU
length. Easy software handling is ensured. For specific diagnostic applications like
EITT, KSI-01U supports the "Raw Frame" operating mode.

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.

2.2 Physical Address Assignment
The device is supplied with the individual physical address 0.2.255. With the ETS
the physical address can be assigned to the device by setting the desired address in
the Individual Address field of the Bus Connections window of the ETS. To download
the desired physical address the KSI-01U has to be chosen as the Current Interface.
Then type in the Individual Address and press the Test button.
Note: In this document only the term “physical address” is used. The term “physical
address” means the KNX physical address as well as the ETS individual
address. Both terms are used by the KNX organisation interchangeably.
2.1 KNX Programming Interface
To use KSI-01U for ETS programming it has to be chosen as the Current Interface in
the ETS Bus Connections window or alternatively during editing a project, at the
bottom line (“Name and state of current connection”) of the ETS window.

2.3 Project Physical Address
For i.e. connecting a visualization device to KNX, the KSI-01U must be contained in
the ETS project. The necessary product database entry can be downloaded from the
MEANWELL web site and from the KNX Online Catalog.
Figure 4: Physical Address Assignment
Figure 4: Physical Address Assignment
Figure 4: Physical Address Assignment
Figure 5: MEANWELL USB Interfaces in the ETS Catalog
With the ETS, the project physical address can be assigned by setting the desired
address in the properties window of the ETS.

2.4 Group Associations
To establish a connection between a device of interest and its visualization
application the KSI-01U can be used as the connecting interface. To enable group
communication the group objects have to be entered to the Group Associations of
KSI-01U per drag & drop (see following figure).
Figure 6: ETS Properties Window
Figure 7: USB Interface Group Address Associations

Note: Interfaces used in KNX Secure installations must know the type of access to
the corresponding Group Associations. To allow communication for the
regarded interface, the combination of PA/IA + GA is stored as position
information in relevant devices. GAs are added to coupler filter tables by ETS
automatically.
Note: Visualization of KNX Secure devices can only be done with using secured
Group Associations.
