Introduction

The KNX-GSM Gateway offers a bi-directional communication between the EIB/KNX and the GSM
network via short messages (SMS). This allows you to remote control and monitor your EIB/KNX
installation with a mobile phone.

Every authorized user can read from/write to EIB/KNX group addresses via mobile phone, if these
addresses are unlocked in the KNX-GSM Gateway. Furthermore the KNX-GSM Gateway provides
the opportunity to send short messages to one or more receivers if certain events (e.g. “Temperature
> x°C”) occur. This can be used to inform the user about interferences.

The KNX-GSM Gateway supports the widespread mobile phone standard GSM. This is why it can be
used in almost any place.

GSM Standards

The KNX-GSM Gateway was developed for operating in four different GSM frequency bands:

• 900MHz (mainly used in Europe)

• 1800MHz (mainly used in Europe)

• 850MHz (mainly used in USA)

• 1900MHz (mainly used in USA)

The KNX-GSM Gateway supports all current GSM standards because it uses GSM Quadband tech­nology.

Important: You have to ensure, that your GSM network provider supports the short message service

and that this service is activated for your account!

SIM cards

A SIM card from a GSM network provider is needed for communication in the GSM network. This
SIM card identifies the user in the GSM network. The KNX-GSM Gateway supports 1,8V and 3V mini
SIM cards.

Important: Bevor changing the SIM card you have to cut the power supply from the KNX-GSM

Gateway. This is important to save the SIM card from damage!

GSM antenna

Every GSM antenna with SMA connector (male) can be used with the KNX-GSM Gateway. You only
have to ensure that the used antenna supports the frequency band used by your GSM network pro­vider.

Note: The included antenna is a Dualband antenna which supports operation in the frequency bands

900MHz and 1800MHz. If you plan to use the KNX-GSM Gateway in the frequency band 850MHz or
1900MHz you have to provide an extra antenna which supports these frequency bands.

Installation instruction

Mount the KNX-GSM Gateway on DIN rail. After this insert the SIM card in the SIM card holder (A5).

While inserting the SIM you should see the SIM card’s backside (side without contacts). The next
step is to connect the Gateway to the EIB/KNX bus system and to the power supply 230V AC. If
everything is connected properly you can switch on power supply.

Changing the SIM card: To unlock the SIM card holder you have to push the SIM card into the cas-

ing. When releasing the pressure the SIM card holder unlocks and you can take the SIM card from
the KNX-GSM Gateway.

Important: It is important to cut the power supply bevor you change the SIM card! This prevents the

SIM card from being damaged!

After installing the KNX-GSM Gateway you have to configure it (see „Configuration with the EIBDok-
tor Software“).

System startup phase

Power up

When switching on the power supply the KNX-GSM Gateway switches all LEDs on and off. The

LEDs are switched one after another in the following order:

Status Æ Signal Æ Test Æ Störung Æ TX Æ RX Æ EIB

Check Parametrization

After Power up the KNX-GSM Gateway checks its parametrization. If the gateway is not yet config­ured or the parametrization is incorrect or inconsistent the LEDs

Störung, Test, Signal and

Status are blinking simultaneously. In this case you have to configure the KNX-GSM Gateway

before you can use it (see „Configuration with the EIBDoktor software“).

Initialization

If the KNX-GSM Gateway is configured correctly the initialization phase starts. First, the gateway
checks if a SIM card exists in the SIM cardholder. If there’s no SIM card present in the KNX-GSM
gateway, the LED

KNX-GSM gateway will stop in this state and no further initialization steps will be executed.

Status is switched on and the LED Störung starts blinking (ca. 1Hz). The

Important: You have to switch of the power supply before inserting the SIM card in the SIM card-

holder! This is important to save the SIM card from damage!.

Next, if a SIM card is inserted in the KNX-GSM Gateway, the configured PIN is checked. If the PIN is
rejected by the SIM card, the LED

switched on. In this case the initialization phase is also cancelled and the KNX-GSM Gateway stops

in the current state.

Note: Normally SIM cards are locked if you enter an invalid PIN three times. If the KNX-GSM Gate-

way shows an invalid PIN, you have to correct your parameterisation and upload this parameterisa­tion into the KNX-GSM Gateway. If you boot the KNX-GSM Gateway three times with an incorrect
PIN your SIM card will be locked! In this case the SIM card can not be used anymore in the KNX­GSM Gateway. You have to unlock your SIM card with the corresponding PUK (Personal Unblocking
Key) in a normal mobile phone.

The LED
checking phase the KNX-GSM Gateway will try to log in to the GSM network. The LEDs

RX will blink (ca. 1Hz) if the configured PIN is accepted by the SIM card. After the PIN

Störung starts blinking (ca. 1Hz) and the LED Signal is

Status,

Signal and Test will show the current state of the log in action. Thereby the three LEDs will be

illuminated in the following order:

When starting the KNX-GSM Gateway the current time needs to be adjusted. This is performed by
the KNX-GSM Gateway by sending a short message to it’s own mobile phone number. This action is
shown to the user by a blinking LED

If the SMS sending fails the LED

It is also possible to check if the KNX-GSM Gateway is in operation and is logged in the GSM net­work even if you are on the way. You just have to call the KNX-GSM Gateway’s mobile phone num­ber from any telephone. The KNX-GSM Gateway will accept the call and will answer with four differ­ent tones. After these tones the gateway hangs up the call automatically.

Alarm input

The KNX-GSM Gateway offers an additional alarm input. This input offers the opportunity to connect
a contact of sabotage to the KNX-GSM Gateway. This contact can e.g. be a switch which can moni­tor the door opening of your control cabinet. To use this alarm input feature the KNX-GSM Gateway
must be configured to activate the input. After the parameterisation the monitoring of the contact is
activated as soon as the contact is closed the first time.

Configuration with the EIBDoktor software

The KNX-GSM Gateway needs a correct configuration to work properly. This configuration can be
generated with the EIBDoktor software, the configuration data transfer can be done directly with the
EIBDoktor or with the ETS software.

Start the EIBDoktor software, and select the menu item „Options“ Æ „KNX-GSM Gateway…“. The
following window will appear:

In the upper line you have to enter the serialnumber of the Gateway (can be found on the case of the
device), and the wanted physical address of the device. Additional you have to enter a „Parameter
group address”, this address will be used to send the gateway configuration to the device.

The button „Transfer to GW“ starts the device configuration. This button is only available if the EIB­Doktor software is connected to the EIB with an EIBDoktor-EIBWeiche. If you do not have such a
bus coupling device available, you can save the current configuration by the button „Save to file…”.
This will also save a „.TEL“ file, which can be loaded and used in the ETS software, to transfer the
gateway configuration.

The button „Load from file…“ loads a saved configuration into the configuration window.

In the upper part of the window you have to enter the SIM card details to access the mobile network.
Please enter the correct PIN number of the card, and the matching phone number. All phone num­bers have to be entered in the international format (+49…) without blanks and special characters!

Up to eight receiver phone numbers can be stored and used in the gateway (E1 – E8). Each mes­sage can refer to one or more of this numbers, so you can create different message priorities.

You can specify an external EIB/KNX time address, to synchronize the Real-Time-Clock of the
Gateway with an EIB/KNX DCF device.

In the middle area of the window you can see the list with up to 100 defined messages, which will be
send by incoming EIB data. Below the list you can optionally activate certain alarming messages..

Page 16 of 19

If you want to get the incoming value inside the SMS, you can activate the option „Append current
value to message text“.

In the middle area you define when the SMS should be send, the following event types are possible:

- Receiving a value

- Receiving 0

- Receiving 1

- Receiving 0 Æ x

- Receiving x Æ 0

- Value below lower limit

- Value in range

- Value outside range

- Value above upper limit

The last four events need additional lower/upper limit values. Please take care that the limits are
matching the selected EIB data type.
The limit/range events will by default only triggered, if the limit/range condition has been reached the
first time. If you for example are using “Value below lower limit”, and the temperature is falling into
this range, a SMS will be send. If the temperature doesn’t leave this lower area, no new messages
will be send. If you want a message on every incoming value, you have to activate the option “Send
always”.

You can also lock each message to a time range. If you select „Send SMS independed from current
time“, the message will be send always. If you select the “Send only … in / out time range“, you can
additionally create and select a time range fort his message. Up to eight time ranges are possible;:

After you have defined your message, pressing “OK” will add it to the list in the main window:

b+b Automations- und Steuerungstechnik GmbH

Up to 100 EIB messages are possible.

Below the message list you can activate optional messages for special events:

- Message on sabotage

- Message on bus power loss

- Message on bus power recovery

- Message on start of gateway

- From (time) every (n) hours

Each of this message can be connected to one of the 100 message texts (button „…“), and to up to
eight receivers (E1 – E8).

Page 18 of 19

In the lower part of the main configuration window you can define the SMS receiving parameters of
the Gateway:

The option „Accept incoming SMS only from the eight receiver phone numbers” limits the access to
the gateway for the given phone numbers, no other number will be able to control the EIB by sending
a SMS.

The option „Password security…“ can be used to lock your GSM gateway: only commands with a
proper password will be accepted. Example: „#secret,W0/0/1,L=1“ is sending the password „secret“
along with the write command.

The option „Send current value on receive of R[GA]“ will send a SMS with the current GA value to
the number which had requested the value. For example: phone A is sending „R0/0/1“ to the gate­way. The gateway will answer to this call by sending the text „GA=value“ (if the value or GA is un­known, it will send ? instead) to phone A. Please note: only GAs you have used in the up to 100
messages can be requested. Also the “R…“ command will not issue a read telegram on the bus, the
Gateway will simply send back the last known value for this address.
Please note: if the password security is activated, you have to send a “#pw,R…” command (including
the correct password).

Writing an EIB telegram with a SMS Text is easy: simply send “W[GA],[Type]=[Value]“ to the gate­way. For example, if you are sending „W0/0/1,L=1“ by SMS, the value „1“ will be written to group
address „0/0/1“ (Type L=switch). The following types are possible:

L = (Light-)Switch (1 bit) Values: 0 or 1
D = Dimming value (8 bit) Values: 0-100% (scaled to 0..255)
B = Byte value (8 bit) Values: 0-255
I = Integer value (16 bit) Values: 0-65535
F = Floating point 16 bit (EIB float) Values: vvv,nnn (note: , instead of .)
T = Texts (up to 14 characters) Values: EIB Text

If you don’t want to give complete write control by SMS, you can limit the range of group addresses
the gateway can write to. Simply activate “Allow writing only fort he following GAs“ and enter a list
with up to 100 group addresses in the combo box. “OK” will add a GA, “Delete“ will remove the se­lected GA from the list. If you don’t want to allow any writing, simply activate this option and leave the
GA list empty.

Transfering the configuration

EIBDoktor

The easiest way to transfer the gateway configuration is by using the EIBDoktor software. Just go
online to the EIB with a connected EIBDoktor-EIBWeiche coupling device by pressing the green
arrow (or selecting the menu item “Logging” Æ “Start” in the EIBDoktor software.

If you now go to the KNX-GSM Gateway configuration window, the button „Transfer to GW“ is avail­able. By pressing this button the data transfer will start. Please note: if the serial number of the gate­way is wrong, or the gateway is not connected to the EIB, an error message box will appear after a
short time. If the data transfer has been completed, a success message box will pop up. The Gate­way will automatically reboot after the transfer, and is now ready to use with the new configuration.

ETS

If you do not have an EIBDoktor-EIBWeiche available, you can save your current configuration into a
file by pressing the „Save to file…“ button. This will create automatically a “.TEL” file as well. This file
contains the configuration data as a telegram list, which can be used with the ETS software. You
have to start the ETS, change into the group monitor, and open/transfer this TEL file.
