Mounting

The device has degree of protection IP20, and is there-

fore suitable for use in dry interior rooms. The housing is

made for rail mounting according to EN 60715 in boards

or cabinets for electrical distribution. For the installation of

the device on the rail proceed as follows:

• with the aid of a tool bring the locking device in the fully

lowered position (a);

• place the upper edge of the rear inner profile on the

upper edge of the rail (b);

• rotate the device towards the rail (c);

• push the locking device upward until it stops (d).

Before removing the device, be sure the bus terminal has

been extracted from its slot. Use a screwdriver to slide

down the locking device and remove the device from the

rail.

Connection of the KNX bus line

The connection of the KNX bus line is made with the ter-

minal block (1) included in delivery and inserted into the

slot of the housing.

Warning! In order to supply the KNX bus lines use

only KNX bus power supplies (e.g. ekinex EK-AB1-

TP, EK-AG1-TP or EK-AM1-TP). The use of other

power supplies can compromise the communica-

tion and damage the devices connected to the bus.

Characteristics of the KNX terminal block

• spring clamping of conductors

• 4 seats for conductors for each polarity

• terminal suitable for KNX bus cable with single-wire

conductors and diameter between 0.6 and 0.8 mm

• recommended wire stripping approx. 5 mm

• color codification: red = + (positive) bus conductor,

black = - (negative) bus conductor

Warning! The electrical connection of the device

can be carried out only by qualified personnel. The

incorrect installation may result in electric shock or

fire. Before making the electrical connections, make

sure the power supply has been turned off.

Configuration and commissioning

The KNX IP Interface and Router secure devices can be

programmed in different ways by the ETS

Via KNX Bus

The device only needs to be connected to the KNX bus.

The ETS

requires an additional interface (for example,

USB) to have access to the bus. Via this way both the

individual address and the entire application including IP

configura-tion can be programmed. Programming via the

bus is recommended if no IP connection can be establi-

shed.

Via KNXnet/IP Tunneling

No additional interface is required. Programming via

KNXnet/IP Tunneling is possible if the device already has

a valid IP configuration (e.g. via DHCP). In this case the

device is displayed in the interface configuration of the

ETS and must be selected. The download is executed via

the ETS

project as with many other devices.

Via direct IP connection

While KNXnet/IP Tunneling and KNXnet/IP Routing is li-

mited to the speed of KNX/TP connection, the device can

be loaded via a direct IP connection at high speed. The

direct IP connection is possible if the device already has

a valid IP configuration as well as an individual address.

To do this select "Use direct IP connection if available"

in the ETS

menu "Bus – Connections - Options". The

download is then directly performed in the device and is

not visible in the ETS group monitor.

In addition, the EK-IF1-SEC-TP router device can also

be programmed via KNXnet/IP Routing. This is possible

if the device already has a valid IP configuration (e.g. by
