Send IP/EIB telegram - Example

1.Send value of a communication object via IP/EIB telegram

This example shows how you send the value of a random communication object (e.g. 14-byte object) via a IP/EIB telegram to another IP device (e.g. another HS/FS), or a 14-byte communication object (e.g. Infodisplay 2.0).

The following steps are required:
  • Step 1:
    Create telegram via the toolbar or the pop-up menu.
  • Step 2:
    Select the recipient type in the Recipient tab (send data to IP recipient or send data to 14-byte EIB recipient). Enter the data of the recipient (telegram type, address, IP port or communication object).
  • Step 3:
    The desired data blocks need to be defined in the Send tab. If, for example, the text Temp.: 14.5°C should be sent as a telegram, the following three data blocks have to be defined:
    - The first data block has to be of the type Text. The value Temp.: has to be consequently entered in the "Free text" field.
    - The second data block has to be of type Communication object as plain text. Here, the communication object is selected whose value should be sent.
    - The third and last data block has to again be of the type Text. The value °C is entered in the field "Free text".
  • Step 4:
    Now only the appropriate command of the command type "Send IP/EIB telegram" has to be created. The command can be triggered, for example, in the logic or visualisation.
  • Done!
    If the command created in Step 4 is now triggered, the HS/FS sends the defined IP telegram.
