KNX PL-Link (FldBusMgmt - subsystem-specific extension)

The Field bus management (FldBusMgmt) object supports following properties of the subsystem-specific extension KNX PL-Link.

✳ Indicates a Siemens proprietary property.

Enable local bus power supply

 

 

"Enable local bus power supply" defines if the internal power supply of the rail is on or off.

Yes

The internal bus power supply is permanently on.

No

The internal bus power supply is permanently off.

KNX individual address (IA)

 

 

"KNX individual address (IA)" defines the KNX individual address. The KNX individual address is assigned automatically and should not be changed. It is only relevant if the automation station supports devices with KNX S-Mode.

Any change of the KNX individual address is applied to the KNXnetIP tunneling individual address but not to the KNX S-Mode devices connected to the automation station.

Format: a.l.d

a: Area address; range: 0...15; can be changed, but not recommended

l: Line address; range: 0...15; can be changed, but not recommended

d: Device address of the automation station; range: 1...250; 251 is exclusively used by the KNX rail of the automation station. Do not change!

KNXnetIP tunneling individual address

 

 

"KNXnetIP tunneling individual address" shows the KNXnetIP tunneling individual addresses 1 and 2. The KNXnetIP tunneling individual addresses are assigned automatically and are read only. They are only relevant if the automation station supports devices with KNX S-Mode.

Format: a.l.t1;a.l.t2

a: Area address; range: 0...15

l: Line address; range: 0...15

t1: Device address of the automation station for KNXnetIP tunneling 1; range 1...181

t2: Device address of the automation station for KNXnetIP tunneling 2; range 1...181

Programming mode

 

 

"Programming mode" defines if the devices on the PL-Link bus are put in the programming mode or not.

Yes

Devices on the PL-Link bus are put in the programming mode.

No

Devices on the PL-Link bus are not put in the programming mode.

Calculated bus power

 

 

"Calculated bus power" shows the power used by the connected devices with PL-Link.

The value is calculated automatically, based on the power consumption of power supply modules and the devices with KNX PL-Link. Power consumption of devices with KNX S-Mode is only considered if it has been defined in the properties of the KNX S-Mode device.

Unit: [mA]
