Prerequisites To follow the information given in the present document, the following in-depth
knowledge is required:
• Knowledge of the functionality and communication capabilities of the Synco 700
and EIB / KNX devices used by the system
• Knowledge of EIB / KNX bus technology and of using the ETS3 engineering /
commissioning tool
• Ideal starting point: Completion of EIB engineering and commissioning training
courses at one of the certified EIB training centers
Target persons The present ducument is targeted at persons working in the following fields:
• Engineering
of Konnex networks equipped with Synco and EIB / KNX devices
• Commissioning of communication
of Konnex networks equipped with Synco and EIB / KNX devices
Note on EIB The European Installation Bus (EIB) uses TP1 (Twisted Pair) as the transmission
medium. The datapoints communicate via so-called communication objects, also
termed group objects.
In the EIB world, the term "datapoint" (common term in building automation) is almost
unknown. For this document, the following convention applies: An S-mode datapoint
corresponds to a communication object or group object.
Note on Synco / Synco uses Konnex TP1 (EIB Twisted Pair) as the transmission medium. The Synco
Konnex devices communicate with each other in LTE mode.
The term "datapoint" has been introduced to the Konnex world (refer to KNX Standard,
Volume 3: System Specifications, Part: 7: Interworking, Chapter 2: Datapoint Types).
The title of the present document, "Konnex S-Mode Datapoints", has been derived from
the following terms:
• Transmission medium TP1 Î Konnex (Konnex bus / EIB Twisted Pair)
• Communication mode Î S-mode
• Communication objects Î Datapoints
The Konnex S-mode datapoints represent a subset of the Synco LTE mode datapoints.
They are used when, in Konnex networks, process values shall be communicated
between EIB devices and Synco devices.
For the communication of process values between Synco 700 devices only, the data-
points are connected via zone addresses (refer to document CE1P3127en).
Synco product data in The Synco product data (import files *.vd3) can be used with the ETS3 tool of version
ETS3 Professional V1.0 ETS3 Professional V1.0 or higher.
For technological reasons, Synco product data are not supported by earlier ETS ver-
sions. This means that Synco product data are not available with ETS2 V1.x.
5/40
Datapoint type The compatibility of the devices is predefined by datapoint type DPT. The format and
number of bits, coding of bits, value range and, where required, the unit (°C, %, m3/h,
etc.) are specified in each datapoint type.
S-mode S-mode stands for system mode. This mode is characterized by the assignment of
(logical) group addresses to S-mode datapoints for the transmission of process values.
S-mode datapoints For control and measuring tasks in HVAC plant and individual rooms, for lighting and
security plant, and for integration in higher level building automation and control sys-
tems, Synco 700 devices provide selected datapoints in S-mode.
S-mode datapoints and EIB communication objects can exchange process values,
provided datapoint type and group address agree.
Synco 700 devices Synco 700 devices with S-mode datapoints are the RMU7x0 universal controllers, the
RMH760 heating controller, and the OZW771 central communication unit. The S-mode
datapoints of these devices are described in chapters 2 through 4 of this document.
Room controllers The RXB21.1 and RXB22.1 room controllers support S-mode communication in accor-
RXB2x.1 dance with the Konnex specification. The S-mode datapoints of the room controllers
are not described in this document. For information, refer to the following pieces of
documentation:

Note In the above illustration, the arrangement of devices on the Konnex network structure
with 3 levels and the factory-set area / line address 0.2 on the Synco devices corre-
sponds to the highlighted area.
7/40
Network address According to a full-scale Konnex network, the network address consists of area, line
and device address. It reflects the unambiguous position of a device on the overall
network and is unique on a network.
Networkaddress, The default network address for Synco 700 devices is 0.2.255 (factory-set). The area /
factory-set line address 0.2 of the Synco devices is predefined by Konnex. It applies as long as no
area and no line couplers are used. The device address 255 must be changed (range
1...254), enabling the device on the bus to spontaneously send process values.
Individual address The "Individual address" (term used in the KNX world) comprises the positions of the
area, line and device addresses and corresponds to the above defined network
address.
Subnetwork, According to EIB and Konnex terminology, a subnetwork corresponds to a line. Hence,
subnetwork address the subnetwork address comprises the address parts "Area" and "Line".

Device addressing For a Synco 700 device, it is only the device address that must be changed. Area and
line address 0.2 are preset or will automatically be adopted by the area and line coupler
(for addressing, refer to document CE1P3127en).
8/40
The group address serves for S-mode communication. It is an address relating to the
function and has a 3-level structure in accordance with EIB guidelines. The assign-
ments can be freely selected but should not be changed within a project.
Syntax of the
group address H/M/S Main group/medium group/subgroup (division mark " / ")
Main group 0...15 e.g. plant
Medium group 0...7 e.g. function
Subgroup 0...255 e.g. element
Examples of group For example, the assignments "Plant/function/element" make possible the group
addresses addresses:
1/1/11 Heating/Signaling/Boiler
3/2/102 Room/Measuring/Temperature 2
5/4/151 Electro/Switching/Lighting 1
Group addresses The group addresses allow EIB communication objects to be connected to S-mode
datapoints. The addresses can only be assigned with the ETS3 tool.

Fixed group In the Konnex Standard, fixed group addresses are defined for a number of system
addresses functions (Functions of Common Interest, FOCI).
In the Synco system (see screenshot below), this applies to the following datapoints:
• System time group address 30/3/254
• Fault information group address 30/3/250
Notes All Synco devices that contain the above datapoints are supplied with the group ad-
dresses preset and connected to the respective group objects.
With the ETS3 Professional V1.0 tool, it is not (yet) possible to set group addresses
above 15 in main group H (refer to section 1.3). For the 2 datapoints "System time" and
"Fault information", a group address in the range 0…15 can be planned and loaded
until an ETS3 Professional version for setting group addresses 30/... becomes
available.
It should be noted that all Synco devices of a plant that receive or send the system time
and / or fault information must be planned and loaded with the ETS tool, even if only
one Synco device sends only one datapoint in S-mode, e.g. when a Synco 700 control-
ler transmits the outside temperature via the bus for indication on an EIB display.
10/40
Normal case As a general rule, with Synco 700 devices for S-mode communication, a datapoint is
always connected to an input or output.
Î Input Synco controller RMU / RMH receives the preselection for the
room operating mode, e.g. from an EIB / KNX device
Output Î Synco controller RMU / RMH sends the current room operating
mode (state), e.g. to EIB / KNX room controllers
Exceptions With the Synco controllers RMU7x0 and RMH760, there are certain S-mode datapoints
that can be connected as an input or output. The ETS3 tool shows this in the “Function”
column (refer to screenshot on the preceding page).
Example: S-mode datapoints whose “Function” column shows "Input / output" can be connected
Input / output to an input or output.
Î Input Controller RMU / RMH is the clock time slave and receives the time of
day in S-mode from an EIB / KNX clock time master,
or
Output Î Controller RMU / RMH is the clock time master and sends the time of
day in S-mode to EIB / KNX clock time slaves.
Note The basic setting "Rem set clock slave = Yes" with the RMU / RMH controllers does not
apply to the S-mode datapoint inputs and outputs.
Example: S-mode datapoints of the same name whose “Function” column shows “Output” on one
Output and input line and “Input” on the next can only be connected to an input or output (see e.g.
datapoint "Outside temperature").
Notes The outside sensor is connected to the terminals of the Synco controller. If the outside
temperature shall be transmitted to EIB / KNX devices, e.g. to a display, the S-mode
datapoint at the output must be connected.
Communication of the outside temperature between Synco 700 devices of the same
zone address takes place in LTE mode.
11/40
Meaning of the The meaning and action of the communication flags C, R, W, T and U is given in the
communication flags following table. The order of C, R, W, T and U corresponds to the default setting in the
ETS3 tool.
Flags for inputs, With datapoint inputs (receive values), the communication flags must be set as follows
receive values (default):
Flags for outputs, With datapoint outputs (send values), the communication flags must be set as follows
send values (default):

Example F16 means "Floating point 16 Bit" coded, e.g. for value range: -670760.00...+670760.00
The information about the Konnex S-mode datapoints given in the present document is
based on the following Handbooks (only available in English):
• EIB / KNX, Volume 3: System Specifications, Part 7, Chapter 2: Datapoint Types
• Supplement 11: HVAC Datapoint Types for EIB / KNX, Volume 3: System
Specifications, Part 7, Chapter 2: Datapoint Types

3)
DPT_Trigger, ID 1.017 Referenced Handbook:
EIB / KNX, Volume 7: Application Descriptions, Part: 10: General Functional Blocks,
Chapter 4: Common Functional Blocks
With datapoint DPT_Trigger, the different functionality of the inputs "Timer button" and
"Comfort button" must be observed.
• Timer button:
The trigger signal from the timer button causes Comfort mode to be prolonged by the
period of time set on the controller (default setting = 60 minutes).
Note: With the RMU / RMH controllers, a prolongation time of 0...720 minutes (in 15-
minute steps) can be set with the help of the RMZ79x operator units.
Menu sequence, e.g. with the RMH:
Main menu > Settings > Heating circuit 1 > Space heating > Timer function
• Comfort button:
The first trigger signal of the comfort button causes operating mode changeover
from:
- Economy Î Comfort
- Precomfort Î Comfort
- Comfort Î Precomfort
Note: The second trigger signal from the comfort button effects changeover to the
previous operating mode, e.g. from Comfort Î Economy.
In Protection mode, the first and second trigger signal from the comfort button
produce no changeover of operating mode.
