Assortment / System Description

Functions and characteristics

• Identification of Synco devices in the KNX network through automatic search run

• Monitoring of Synco devices and 2 fault signal inputs (e.g. to acquire plant faults)

• Signaling faults to locally connected operator station or via modem to pager,

mobile phone, fax machine and to PC/laptop with e-mail facility*

• The different message receivers can be combined as required

• Clock time master with predefined system time for devices in the KNX network

* Only possible with GSM modem, depending on telephone provider

2 fault signal inputs for potential free contacts. The contacts’ normal position

(fault/no fault) and fault priority can be parameterized.

Typical faults:

• Faults of pumps

• Thermal cutouts

• Response of level switches

In addition to the faults received at the fault signal inputs, the central communi-

cation units identify …

• breakdowns and malfunctions of Synco devices in the KNX network,

• own faults (faults of central communication units).

For each fault source (fault signal input, Synco device, central communication unit)

it can be selected if the faults shall be reported only when they occur (coming) or

when they occur and disappear (coming and going).

Faults acquired by the central communication unit are immediately sent as fault

status messages to maximum 2 message receivers. If a message cannot be

delivered, the central communication unit repeats it at the parameterized interval

(until it is successfully delivered), or the transmission is aborted when the number

of parameterized repetitions is reached.

The central communication units can generate system reports to inform at certain

intervals about the plants’ and devices’ states.

The central communication units are commissioned and parameterized with a

locally connected PC/laptop running on ACS790 software via the RS-232 port, or

with the OCI700 communication interface (see OCI700.1 service tool) via the KNX

bus.

The central communication units are equipped with 2 interfaces:

• RS-232 connector, 9 poles

• Terminals CE+ and CE- for KNX bus connection
