1INTRODUCTION
1.1 ZENNIO KNX-IP ROUTER/INTERFACE PLESS
Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess and Zennio KNX-IP Interface PLess are the solution from
Zennio for the interconnection of KNX twisted-pair lines and Ethernet medium with
no need of external power.
The main differences between the two devices are:
Zennio KNX-IP Interface PLess: simple KNX to IP interface solution.
Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess: can be used as line or area coupler to provide data
connection between the upper KNXnet/IP line and the lower KNX twisted-pair bus line.
Figure 1. Context (Topology)
Both also provide a connection point for ETS to enable programming (up to four
parallel connections) and monitoring the KNX line via IP.
These are the most outstanding features of these two devices:
Support for long messages (up to 240 bytes).
Support for group addresses in the range 14 to 31.
Up to 4 parallel connections from ETS for programming and monitoring.
No external power required.

Web interface to display the device settings, to switch to the programming
mode and for firmware updates.
7 lighting indicators (LEDs):two bus state indicators per line (with detection
of abnormal situations: excessive bus load, message retransmissions, etc.),
one more indicator per line for the state of the filtering function, and one
additional indicator for the programming mode.
Only in Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess:
➢Use as an area or line coupler with a LAN as main line or main area line,
offering a fast communication medium for telegram exchange.
➢Traffic filtering according to the project topology and to the built-in
address table.
➢Telegram dropping.
➢Blocking of device-configuration telegrams (telegrams destined to
physical addresses).
➢Customisable Function pushbutton for triggering the manual mode,
useful at runtime and for set-up and troubleshooting purposes.

1.2 INSTALLATION
Figure 2 Element Diagram
Figure 2 shows a scheme with all the LED indicators and required connections. This
device does not require an external power supply, it is powered through the KNX bus.
To couple a KNX twisted-pair (TP) line and a LAN, the KNX bus (11) and Ethernet (1)
cables must be connected. After the connection, the device can be conveniently
mounted on the DIN rail by the usual procedure
The programming button (10) shown in Figure 2 may be pressed to set Zennio KNX-IP
Router PLess in programming mode. After a short press, the programming LED (9)
will light in red.
The behaviour of the additional LEDs and the manual function button will be described
in sections 2.4 and 2.5.
For detailed information about the technical features of the device, as well as on
security and installation procedures, please refer to the device Datasheet, bundled
within the original packaging of the device and also available at http://www.zennio.com.

1.3 USING THE DEVICE AS A PROGRAMMER
Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess and Zennio KNX-IP Interface PLess can be used in ETS
as a programming interface. In addition to an IP address, they must be assigned a
KNX individual address for this purpose.
Note: to detect the Zennio KNX-IP Router/Interface PLess as a programmer in ETS, it
needs to be connected to the same IP network as the PC.
1.3.1 PARALLEL DOWNLOADS
ETS offers the option to perform multiple parallel downloads within the same project.
This option is only available for connections via a KNX-IP router or a KNX-IP interface.
Certain conditions must be met:
Each download must be performed on a different line.
For each line, it is necessary to select one Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess or
one Zennio KNX-IP Interface to perform the download.
In ETS5 this is configured in the line properties.
Figure 3 ETS5 parallel downloads configuration.

Zennio KNX-IP Router / Interface PLess

In ETS4 this is configured by right-clicking on the line and, under "Set
Connection", selecting the desired connection.
Figure 4 ETS4 parallel downloads.
Note: once the connection has been selected, it will not be available for the other lines.
An additional restriction applies to parallel downloads: they are not available to
download physical addresses. When performing this type of downloads, the link
device used by ETS is not the one configured for the line but the general one.
1.3.2 LIMITATIONS
It is important to note that Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess and Zennio KNX-IP Interface
PLess, when being used as programmer, do not allow bus monitoring (the ETS bus
monitor will not be available).
Moreover, these devices do not allow being unloaded (unprogrammed)from ETS.
Equivalently, they can be reset to the factory default state, as explained in section
2.5.2.

2DESCRIPTION
2.1 KNX TO IP INTERFACE
As indicated before, Zennio KNX-IP Router / Interface PLess is an interface device
intended for the interconnection between a KNX bus and an Ethernet network (LAN).
Specifically, as a programming interface for ETS, it allows up to four simultaneous
connections for performing downloads or for bus monitoring.
On the other hand, Zennio KNX-IP Router / Interface PLess can be allocated within the
project topology in ETS, as any other device. This step can be omitted when it is going
to be used as interface, because there is no need to modify the default configuration.
However, when requiring to modify the configuration or to filter telegrams for the KNX-
IP Router an individual address should be assigned in order to download the
parameters.
2.2 LINE OR AREA COUPLER
Note: this functionality does not apply to Zennio KNX-IP Interface PLess.
Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess can be used as a line coupler (for coupling both a line to
a mainline) or as an area coupler (for coupling a main line to an area line, also
referred to as backbone line). The operation on both cases is analogous –being a line
coupler or an area coupler only depends on the location of the device within the
topology.
Figure 5 shows a typical scenario where Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess can be installed
as any of the nodes the nodes labelled as “AC” (area coupler) or “LC” (line coupler):
Coupling an area line and a main line requires an area coupler (AC). Zennio
KNX-IP Router PLess is intended for cases where the medium of the former
is Ethernet while the medium of the latter is TP.
Coupling a main line and a line requires a line coupler (LC). Zennio KNX-IP
Router PLess is intended for cases where the medium of the former is

10
Ethernet while the medium of the latter is TP. In such cases, the medium of
the area line (if any) is assumed to be Ethernet as well.
Figure 5 Line Coupling
On the other hand, Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess can be incorporated to the ETS
project topology as any other device. This step is not compulsory if the default
configuration meets the requirements of the integrator. However, should they require
modifying any parameters or filter table the device must be assigned a physical
address prior to downloading the new parameterisation.
Whatever the location in the topology, Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess offers an insulated
coupling interface with the possibility, in the particular case of the Router, of filtering
the traffic according to the topology or to group-address dependent criteria. In other
words, Zennio KNX-IP Router PLess will (or will not) let telegrams pass from one
medium to the other according to the parameterisation.
Note: the individual address of a line coupler needs to be of the form X.Y.0 or X.0.0 in
case of working as a backbone coupler.
