The web configurator is the interface through which the configuration of the Delégo visualisation system is carried out, as well as some advanced settings.
ETS Importation
The automatic importation of the ETS project (version 4 and later) is an indispensable tool to facilitate the entire project cycle of the KNX automation system, from the preliminary version to the as-built version. The system integrator can associate automatically imported group addresses to define the functionalities of the graphic components that make up the visualization environment.
- ETS project format: OPC Export (Open Platform Communications) downloadable with ETS4 and later versions.
- Importing group address structure (1-3 levels), descriptions and KNX communication object type.
- Support for further imports and/or manual introduction with merging of new group addresses.
- Tools to accelerate the configuration of graphic components by name matching, group address filters and offset copying.
-
From ETS5.x it is possible to export the project directly in OPC format, generating 2 files, one with extension .esf and one with extension .phd. The first one contains the list of all the group addresses used, the second one contains the list of all the physical addresses used. -
Through the web interface of the server, you can import the 2 generated files. -
It is possible to configure automatic rules to search for status feedback, according to the description made in ETS and/or according to the group addresses used. This function allows to speed up considerably the configuration of the control widgets.
-
At the end of the import procedure a detailed summary of all the status command associations carried out, is provided. -
The creation of widgets is facilitated by the duplicate function: once a widget has been created, it can be cloned several times with the updated group addresses for the different functions of the building. -
During the creation of a widget, compatible group addresses, imported from the ETS project, are automatically suggested.
Multilanguage support
The Delégo visualisation system has multilingual supported configuration environment and visualization environment. The server configuration environment, intended for the system integrator, supports the following languages:
- Italian
- English
- German
- French
Logical sequences
Delégo server integrates in the configuration web server a powerful graphic development environment with functional blocks to realize advanced logics that extend and complete the functions provided by KNX products with ETS. The system integrator has available a complete library of preconfigured functional blocks to drag on the graphical environment and connect with the variables and states acquired from the field through KNX bus; the programs created are automatically translated into scripts in the Lua language and executed as independent and background tasks on the server device.
The tasks can react to an event (change of status or value of KNX communication objects) or execute the logic cyclically; the environment also has a simulator to test and fine-tune the programs created before running them with the automation system.
The library of functional blocks includes:
- Combinator logic blocks (AND, OR, XOR, NOT)
- Scenario blocks and sequences
- Gates (selectors, bistable elements T, RS and D, latch)
- Comparison Operators
- Mathematical operators
- Counters
- Timers and triggers
- Astronomical clock (solar height and azimuth calculation of a site characterized by its geographical coordinates)
- Status Byte
- Repeater
- Traffic lights
- Clocks
- Presence Simulation
- Scripting (LUA, PHP)
