KNX Devices Configuration
Connecting Interfaces
-
Connect your computer:
-
Use a USB interface (MTN631829 or MTN6502-0101) or ensure you have a KNX IP interface before uploading programs to your devices.
-
You can connect to the complete installation on-site or each device individually (e.g., in your office).
-
-
Configure the controller
-
If configuring the controller, connect it to your computer using an RJ45 cable.
-
Selecting and Adding Interfaces
-
Select interface:
-
Click Select Interface at the bottom left of the UPLOAD tab.

eConfigure KNX will search for available KNX USB/IP/Space Logic KNX Remote interfaces.
-
-
Choose your interface:
-
After searching, double-click your interface or select it and click OK.
-
-
Add interface manually:
-
In Select your bus interface dialog, click Add interface and fill in the form:
-
Name
-
Individual address
-

Using NAT: Be cautious with NAT mode for unsecured internet connections. It's safer to use a VPN and local IP addresses. Ensure the client router allows port mapping.
-
-
Click Test to verify the connection. If successful, click OK.
-
Troubleshooting Interface Recognition
-
Ensure you are using a compatible interface: USB interface (MTN681829) or Wiser for KNX/homeLYnk (LSS100100)/spaceLYnk (LSS100200).
-
Verify your computer is on the same network if using a controller.
-
Check that the firewall is not blocking communication with the controller.
Configuring Devices
Configure Devices:
-
In the UPLOAD tab, select the devices you want to configure and click the arrow button in the center of the screen.
-
Follow the wizard steps. If your device is not addressed, press the programming button on your device to assign an individual address.
-
Wait for the configuration to finish.
Address only configuration:
-
Click Address only at the bottom of the screen and follow the wizard to configure only the individual address.
Application only configuration:
-
Click Application only to download only the application program to the selected devices without changing their individual addresses or other settings. This is useful for updating device functionality without altering network configuration.
Resetting devices:
-
If multiple devices have the same individual address, click Reset the device and start over.
Final Steps
Separate configuration:
-
It is always better to configure each device separately.
Completion:
-
Once the device appears on the right side of the UPLOAD tab screen, the configuration is complete.
