ABB i-bus® Tool
The ABB i-bus® Tool is an innovative software concept to support system integrators when commissioning and servicing KNX installations.
The ABB i-bus® Tool accesses individual ABB i-bus® KNX devices via a standard KNX interface (USB, IP) using the physical KNX address. The integrator can trigger functions, read values, simulate states and adjust settings of the connected device.
Internal information and states of the device hardware and software applications, which were not available to the integrators or only available after considerable effort, are now available in a transparent manner and can be specifically retrieved and partly influenced. The information from status bytes can, for example, be represented as plain text.
The ABB i-bus® Tool is optional and free of charge. It is a device monitoring tool complementary to ETS. An important principle is that no divergences to the ETS project can result through the i-bus Tool. The i-bus Tool is optional, so that the ABB i-bus KNX devices are still commissioned using the ETS.
