The concept
4.1
General overview
The concept
The workflow is divided in three main parts:
-
-
-
The first part is the package creation. It is handled by someone having the
KNX technology know-how.
In this package, are defined the interactions between the different KNX devices of the project, the different usages of each device, the parameters they
have to take for a given use, their graphical appearances, the different kinds
of zones.
The package is a general template which will be applied later on to build your
project. You just define within the general configuration, no matter the quantity of devices you will commission. This package is a collection of Device
Templates and Zone Templates.
The second step is the graphical integration. This could be done by anyone
without having a specific knowledge about KNX.
You first structure your building as it really is. This means, you import the
background images of each floor, then you place the devices on this image
where they geographically are. You define, accordingly to the package used,
their usages. Finally, you draw zones around these devices, the connection
will be done automatically and your ETS base built.
The last step is about the SCADA database establishment.
You can define which Group Addresses will be monitorable on the SCADA
system, their BACnet mapping and if you wish to trend them or not

Why using MnG?
4.2.1
Time saver
Before it could take hours and hours to install KNX devices, defining their parameters, the group addresses they belong to, etc. and the most complicated part was
when you had to change a device because the site topology has changed and the
device no longer belongs to this group object but to the other one.
Now this time is over!
You just re-draw your zone excluding the device which is henceforth out of it. The
connections are recalculated and feeds the ETS base in exactly the same way as
you did manually. Just, it takes 3 seconds with the tool where you would have probably spent 10 minutes!
Finally, you re-draw the new zone in which you want to place this given device and
everything is also recalculated to perform what you have drew.
