Multiple multicast addresses

[Simuzer]

How can I add multiple multicast addresses to only one logic machine?

Multicast Address:

• 224.0.23.12
  
• 224.0.23.13
  
• 224.0.23.14

This is not possible, what are you trying to solve?

Each block has an average of 18-20 floors.

Each block has an average of 20 floors. Each block has two main lines. 

Below is an example physical addressing for block A1.

SECTION A1
(Floor 12 - 3)
-- 1.0.0 (Ip Router)
-- 1.1.0 (Line Coupler) (Floor 12)
-- -- 1.1.1 (Switch Actuator)
-- -- 1.1.2 (Sensor 1), 1.1.3 (Sensor 2), 1.1.4 (Sensor 3), etc.
-- 1.2.0 (Line Coupler) (Floor 11)
-- -- 1.2.1 (Switch Actuator)
-- -- 1.2.2 (Sensor 1), 1.2.3 (Sensor 2), 1.2.4 (Sensor 3), etc.
-- 1.3.0 (Line Coupler) (Floor 10)
-- -- 1.3.1 (Switch Actuator)
-- -- 1.3.2 (Sensor 1), 1.3.3 (Sensor 2), 1.3.4 (Sensor 3), etc.
...
...
-- 1.15.0 (Line Coupler) (Floor 3)
-- -- 1.15.1 (Switch Actuator)
-- -- 1.15.2 (Sensor 1), 1.15.3 (Sensor 2), 1.15.4 (Sensor 3), etc.


(Floor 2 - (-5))
-- 2.0.0 (Ip Router)
-- 2.1.0 (Line Coupler) (Floor 2)
-- -- 2.1.1 (Switch Actuator)
-- -- 2.1.2 (Sensor 1), 2.1.3 (Sensor 2), 2.1.4 (Sensor 3), etc.
-- 2.2.0 (Line Coupler) (Floor 1)
-- -- 2.2.1 (Switch Actuator)
-- -- 2.2.2 (Sensor 1), 2.2.3 (Sensor 2), 2.2.4 (Sensor 3), etc.
-- 2.3.0 (Line Coupler) (Floor 0)
-- -- 2.3.1 (Switch Actuator)
-- -- 2.3.2 (Sensor 1), 2.3.3 (Sensor 2), 2.3.4 (Sensor 3), etc.
...
...
-- 2.15.0 (Line Coupler) (Floor -5)
-- -- 2.15.1 (Switch Actuator)
-- -- 2.15.2 (Sensor 1), 2.15.3 (Sensor 2), 2.15.4 (Sensor 3), etc.

Blocks and knx physical addresses are as follows. As you can see, there are 3 addresses from 1.x.x. (red, blue and green). But IP Router IP addresses and group addresses of all devices are different.

i have only one Logic Machine.. 

Can't I solve this with 1 LM? Or do I need 3 LMs for 3 regions? 

I hope I was able to explain it. I'm looking forward to any suggestions you may have.

How many group addresses is all this? What is the task for LM on this project?

[Simuzer]

How many group addresses is all this?  What is the task for LM on this project?

A total block will be around 600-1000. Therefore, the total maximum will be 12000-17000 group addresses.

The LM's job here is to monitor and turn lamp states on and off. It can also change sensor times. 

LM's tasks:

• Monitoring lamp status
  
• Controlling lamp on/off
  
• Changing regional sensor timings when necessary

You need at last 3 LM to have 4-5k objects per each. If you need some global scheduling/settings you can use MQTT to communicate between LMs. How is the network done? KNX IP works only on one subnet.
