KNX/IP Disconnected

[Angeles]

Hi:
How can I Know that the bus KNX is disconnected outside Alerts. I want to send an email to know that situation.
Thanks.

Hi,

So is there a way to do this? Is there a way to get specific alerts to generate an email?


Thanks,


Roger

Yes, via a resident script:

Code:

1234567891011121314

if not client then   function statushandler(status)     if status == 0x00 then       -- KNX Connected     elseif status == 0xFF then       -- KNX Disconnected     end   end   client = require('localbus').new(1)   client:sethandler('status', statushandler) end client:step()

Good. Is there a way to fo the same with knx physical adresses as well? I was thinking to maybe ones a day run a script that checks programmed adresses and makes an alert if trouble and and ok message to the log if ok

[admin]

There's knxlib.ping(phys_addr) function that you can use. But it will work only if your LM has direct KNX/TP connection.

[PassivPluss]

Ok. Thx. Yes i have tp so that will work

Yes, via a resident script:

Code:

1234567891011121314

if not client then  function statushandler(status)    if status == 0x00 then      -- KNX Connected    elseif status == 0xFF then      -- KNX Disconnected    end  end  client = require('localbus').new(1)  client:sethandler('status', statushandler) end client:step()

Thank you. I added the function into the group address status script. From before.

I tried this function and it's not working in the current version of Wiser - does anyone have a current working version of this function to check the local KNX TP link?

Tried in a resident script and scheduled script (I prefer scheduled script), anyway the statushandler() function never gets called.

Hi,
I tested it with Wiser for KNX with firmware 2.6.2 and it was working for me.
You have to use resident script with sleep time 0.

Strange, I wonder what am I doing wrong.

I'm using this, in a resident script with sleep time 0:

Code:

1234567891011121314

-- KNX TP connectivity check function statushandler(status)   if status == 0x00 then     log('KNX connection check succesful')   elseif status == 0xFF then     alert('KNX is disconnected')   end   log('status is ' .. tostring(status)) end client = require('localbus').new(1) client:sethandler('status', statushandler) client:step()

And I get nothing in the logs, error logs, alerts... any ideas?

You won't get any log until the connection status changes. If you want to get the current status the use status = buslib.isconnected()

Thank you, that works well!

What's the difference between 'knxlib' and 'buslib'?

[admin]

No difference, both variables reference the same library functions

What can be the reason for KNX / TP disconnected messages?

In my alerts, I have many messages from KNX / TP connected and KNX / TP disconnected, but I do not know why.

Thanks.

[admin]

Which hardware version do you have?

[Hyxion14]

HW: LM5 Lite (i.MX6)

SW: 20200703

I also experience this, once every few days - in the Error log I see:

KNX/TP: Transmitter Error (send 0 receive 1)

And in the Alerts log, at the same exact time (same second), it says:

KNX/TP: Connected

Using W4K i.MX6.

Transmitter error and temperature warning usually means that there are too many devices on the KNX line.

What temperature warning? I don't see it.

Just the transmitter error coupled with a 'connected' (as if the device's KNX line was disconnected and reconnected)

[admin]

Temperature warning is another indication of an overloaded line. It's not guaranteed to appear though. The more devices are on the KNX line the harder it is to transmit data. This leads to the chip overheating and/or not being able to transmit at all (send 0 receive 1 error).
