KIPI 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 KIPI KIPI is the solution from Zennio for the interconnection of KNX twisted-pair lines and Ethernet. It also provides a connection point for ETS to enable programming (up to five parallel connections) and monitoring the KNX line via IP.
(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 (8) shown in Figure 1 may be pressed to set KIPI in programming mode. After a short press, the programming LED (7) will light in red.
To begin with the parameterisation process of the device, it is necessary, once the ETS program has been opened, to import the database of the product (KIPI application programs). Next, the device should be added to the project where desired.
Up to five simultaneous connections are allowed for performing downloads or for bus monitoring (via group monitor). Note: to detect the KIPI as a programmer in ETS, it needs to be connected to the same IP network as the PC.

Or by selecting it at the bottom left after opening a project in ETS. Figure 4 Selection of KIPI in a ETS project. Important: If the KIPI is selected as the programming interface to program itself it is recommended to first perform individual address download and then application download, rather than complete download (complete download causes a device restart and therefore communication with ETS is lost and the download is cancelled).
Certain conditions must be met: Each download must be performed on a different line. For each line, it is necessary to select one KIPI to perform the download. Note: There is a restriction: parallel downloads are not available to download physical addresses.
After the individual KIPI address has been set, the five tunneling addresses are automatically set with consecutive values. This can be changer at any time. Important: KIPI tunnelling addresses must not match any of the addresses set to other devices on the system.
KIPI 2.4 LED INDICATORS KIPI incorporates four LED lights on the top of the device that make it easy to monitor the status of the buses and to detect typical communication problems, as detailed next. Figure 7 LEDs KNX Line Status LED (TP): shows the status of the primary bus.
KIPI 2.5 HARD RESET TO FACTORY DEFAULTS If “IP Factory Reset” button is pressed for three seconds, the device restores its default parameters (obtain an IP address via DHCP server). This IP configuration will remain until a new download is made.
