1 About the BIM M130/1/2/5 devices
1.1 Needed software & hardware
Installed MT4 software and valid license.
Installed ETS4 software and valid license.
An Opternus Development Tool package.
Arduino IDE: only required for the external microcontroller based examples.

1.2 About the Opternus Development Tool package


This product is based on the BIM M132
- KNX Profile Class = System 2
The Opternus Development Tool package containing:
- A development board (PCB)
- NEC Minicube development platform for flash MCU
- IAR Embedded Workbench
- BIM Tools
This solution requires development from scratch, as BIM Modules do not contain predefined Group
Objects; i.e. the AP is developed in the C programming language.
This solution comes with a proprietary (not standardized) API, see document
BIM_M_13x_API_Reference_v1_2_01.pdf.

1.3 About the Arduino external microcontrollers


For the external microcontroller, we opted for the Arduino open source electronics prototyping platform.
More information can be found via this URL: arduino.cc
The main reason for choosing Arduino is the fact that the Arduino Software (compiler/loader) is free of
charge.
Several types of Arduino microcontrollers exist; we have used Arduino UNO.

3.3 Examples summary


3.3.1 Example 1 Simulated actuator (binary output)
This is the easiest example because there is no additional hardware required.
The output will be simulated by means of the so called test pins.

3.3.2 Example 2 Actuator (binary output)


The AP toggles a LED via an I/O port.
This sample includes the use of a timer.
This sample includes the use of a parameter.

3.3.3 Example 3 Sensor (push button)


The AP detects push button events.
A normal closed push button is connected via an I/O port.
This sample includes the use of a simple debounce function.

3.3.4 Example 4 Actuator based on an external C (FT1.2)


An Arduino UNO external C is connected to the BIM.
Bus events for GO0 will propagated to the external C by the BIM via its TxD/RxD ports.
The external C will switch a LED accordingly.
The communication between the BIM and the external C is based on the FT1.2 serial protocol.

3.3.5 Example 5 Sensor based on an external C (FT1.2)


An Arduino UNO external C is connected to the BIM.
The external C detects push button events.
Each push button event will be propagated to the BIM via its TxD/RxD ports.

- GND is pin 24 of JP2 (BIM Connector), on regular BIM M13x devices GND is pin C1.
Compile the sample project contained in: Opternus_Example2-v01.zip
The LED can be activated via GO0, which by default is associated with GA = 0/0/1.
- Value = 0 (off) should switch the LED off.
- Value = 1 (on) should make the LED toggle.
The toggle frequency = 1/ (toggle time * toggle factor).
- The Toggle Time is set to 100 ms.
- Toggle factor = 0 means that the LED is continuously lit.
The toggle factor is stored as parameter in the memory of the device (EEPROM).
The toggle factor can be changed via GO1, which by default is associated with GA = 0/0/2.
- E.g. value = 5 will make the LED toggle 2 times per second when activated.
- E.g. value = 10 will make the LED toggle each second when activated.

- GND is pin 24 of JP2 (BIM Connector), on regular BIM M13x devices GND is pin C1.
Compile the sample project contained in: Opternus_Example3-v01.zip
The push button events will be propagated via GO0 onto the bus.
- GO0 by default is associated with GA = 0/0/1.
- Each push button event makes the value of GO0 toggle.
P77 initialization:
- P77 is set as output port.
- The pull-up resistor of P77 is set, which makes the value of P77 become logically 1.
The push button events are detected as follows:
- After each AP loop (3.3 ms) the value of P77 is evaluated.
- If the value of P77 = 0 (logically) it means that the button was pushed.
- The value of GO0 is toggled and sent to the bus.
- A timer (200 ms) is started in order to debounce the push button events.
P77 is after each push button event reset as follows:
- Set P77 as input.
- Set P77 as output.
- Set the pull-up resistor of P77, which makes the value of P77 become logically 1 again.

4 Internal working of a BIM
This is explains the relation between KNX bus traffic events and the BIM M13x device resources. It is
especially interesting when a deeper knowledge is required about the BIM based solutions, i.e.
understanding in full detail the relation between the BIM resources, the KNX communication stack and
the AP.

4.1 Processing Bus Telegrams


See: Figure 7.
The system software (KNX Stack) does the following:
It analyses the Group Address and the value of the Telegram.
It determines which GO is involved, by consulting the following Resources:
- the Group Address Table this is the list of GAs
- the Group Object Association Table, which maps between the GAs and the GOs
- the Group Object Table, which is the list of GOs and their descriptions
It updates the value for the involved GO in RAM. The consulted Resources are:
- the Application Info Block to retrieve the pointer to CObjects
- CObjects that contain the pointers for all GO values.
Sets the Update Flag for the involved GO in the RAM Flags.
The AP continuously polls the Update Flags. If at least one is set then it will:
Fetch the GO value as stored in RAM.
Control the PEI (if required and/or applicable).
Reset the Update Flag in the RAM Flags.

4.2 Processing PEI Events
See: Figure 8.
The AP:
Notices an event at the PEI.
Updates the value for the involved GO in RAM, the consulted resources are:
- the Application Info Block to retrieve the pointer to CObjects
- CObjects contains the pointers for all GO values.
Sets the Transmit Request Flag for the involved GO in the RAM Flags.
The system software (KNX Stack) continuously polls the Transmit Request Flags, if at least one is set,
then it will:
Generate the (group) Telegram, the consulted resources in order to find the appropriate GA are:
- the Object Table = list with GO descriptions
- the Association Table = mapping between GAs & GOs
- the Address Table = list with GAs
In order to find the appropriate data,
- the Application Info Block to retrieve the pointer to CObjects
- CObjects contains the pointers for all GO values.
Transmit the Telegram on the bus.
Reset the Transmit Request Flag for the involved GO in the RAM Flags.

// ram flags for communication objects
BYTE RAMFlags[(NUM_OF_COM_OBJ / 2) + 1];

// communication object values


BYTE Data_Obj0; /* this GO is used to activate or deactivate the output (P70) */
BYTE Data_Obj1; /* this GO is used to change the toggle factor via the bus */

This reserves the required RAM for the GOs of this AP: flags + values.
This is the operational (live) data for the GOs.
The actual definitions of the GOs are stored in EEPROM and will be set up in tables.c (see further)
in the resource called Object Table.
The address of RAMFlags needs to be specified in the Application Info Block.
BYTE P70_status; /* status of the output (P70) */
BYTE param0; /* to store the value of the toggle factor */

This reserves the required RAM in order to store the status of P70 and the toggle factor.
The exact memory locations depend on the settings stored in BIM_M_130.xcl.
#pragma constseg = PARAM
__root const BYTE ToggleFactor;

This reserves the required EEPROM in order to store the toggle factor.

The exact memory locations depend on the settings stored in BIM_M_130.xcl.
const BYTE NbComsOb = NUM_OF_GOM_OBJ;

This reserves 1 byte in EEPROM in order to store the number of GOs.


const BYTE NbComsOb = NUM_OF_COM_OBJ;
const CObjPtr CObjects[] = // table for com objects
{
(void*)&NbComsOb, // ptr to number of cobjects
&Data_Obj0,
&Data_Obj1
};

This reserves the necessary EEPROM in order to store/set up a table, which consists of:
- a pointer to where the number of GOs is stored, this is a pointer to EEPROM
- pointers to where the GO values are stored, these are pointers to RAM.
The address of GObjects needs to be specified in the Application Info Block.
#pragma constseg = APPINFOBLOCK
const AppInfoBlock AIB =
{
Swap(0x0001), // AIBVersion
0x01, 0x01, // ApplFirmwareVersion, ApplFirmwareSubVersion
__program_start, // AppMain
save, // AppSave
unload, // AppUnload
CObjects, // pCObjects
RAMFlags, // pRAMFlags
&UserTimerTab, // pUserTimerTab
NULL, // pUsrIntObjRoot
NULL, // pUsrParamMgmt
0x0000 // WatchDogTime
};

This reserves the necessary EEPROM in order to store the Application Info Block.
This information stores amongst others:
- the starting address of the AP
- pointers to the save & unload routines
- pointer to the RAM flags
- pointer to the table containing the GO value pointers (= GObjects)

};

This reserves the required EEPROM for the Address Table of this AP.
- The first two bytes are reserved for the Individual Address IA of the BCU.
- The last byte is always 0x00 in order to indicate the end of this table.
- The GAs for this AP are stored between the IA and the end of table byte.
- In case the AP requires more GAs, they need to be added between the IA and the last byte, two
bytes per extra GA.
#pragma constseg = ASSOCTAB
__root const BYTE AssTab[] =

};

This reserves the required EEPROM for the Association Table of this AP.
This table defines the links between the GAs and the GOs.
The last byte is always 0x00 in order to indicate the end of this table.
Each association contains two bytes:
- first = index of the GA in the Address Table
- second = index of the GO in the Object Table.
In case the AP requires more associations, they need to be added before the end of table byte, two
bytes per extra association.

UINT1,
/*Obj1*/ NULL, (COMM_ENABLE + WRITE_ENABLE + TRANSMIT_ENABLE + READ_ENABLE + TX_LOW), UINT8

};

This reserves the required EEPROM for the Object Table of this AP.
This table contains the actual definitions of the individual GOs.
- The first byte contains the number of GOs.
- The second byte is reserved and needs to be set to 0x00 (because of compatibility reason).
Each GO definition contains 3 bytes
- The first byte is not used (set to NULL).
- The second byte is the config byte; it is used to define the communication flags (CRWTU) and
the priority (system, high, low, normal).
- Third byte defines the type (length) of the GO.

This AP has 1 Timer. NUM_OF_TIMERS is therefore set to 1.


This AP has 2 GOs. NUM_OF_GOM_OBJ is therefore set to 2.
Defining COM_OBJx is mandatory! Even if you dont use them in the rest of the source code.

Select Project/Make via the menu to compile and link the project.
Select Project/Debug via the menu in order to start the preparations for a debug session.
Select Debug/Go via the menu to actually start the AP.
This AP should as such work and does not require any real debugging unless you would like to test it with
other (hard-coded) GAs as the ones specified in the Address Table.

5.6 Release
Make sure that the Release option is selected within the Workspace window.
Select Project/Make via the menu to build the project; this will create the file
BIM_M_130_Template.map in the Release\List folder of this project.

As such this file is correct but not usable for the MT, as it needs to be modified first.
This can be done automatically via a Post-build command line, by doing the following.
Click Project/Options
Click Build Actions
Copy this: C:\Program Files\Siemens AG\BIM Tools\aioc.exe -t modifier --targs Template_130
"$PROJ_DIR$\config.xml" "$PROJ_DIR$\Release\Exe\BIM_M_130_Template.s19"
"$PROJ_DIR$\Release\Exe\BIM_M_130_Template_mod.s19" into the Post-build command line field.
Building the project will from now on create two extra files in the Release\Exe folder of this project:

This is important as it is necessary to know where the parameters for the AP will be located in EEPROM.
The log file shows that the offset for the memory locations have been changed:
MEMORYCONVENTRY: 7800 <-> 8115 Offset: +6800
MEMORYCONVENTRY: 8116 <-> 9FFF Offset: -8000

From BIM_M_130_Example_BasicKit.map it is known that the original location for ToggleFactor =


9C00 (see above). This means, because of

Copyright 2015, KNX Association page 27 of 30


MEMORYCONVENTRY: 8116 <-> 9FFF Offset: -8000

that the actual location for this (ETS) parameters shall be calculated as 0x9C00 0x8000, i.e the address
for ToggleFactor is 0x1C00.

5.7 Important note: property compare load control


The second load control of the above mentioned S19 file makes ETS validate a particular device property,
i.e. object 0, property 78 (0x4E). If the value of the target device property does not match with the value
indicated in the load control, being 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04 0x05 0x06 then ETS will refuse to download
the AP. The default value of this property for off-factory devices is set to 0xFF 0xFF 0xFF 0xFF 0xFF
0xFF.
There are two possibilities to resolve this:
- Either remove the load control from the load procedure (not recommended).
- Or modify the value of device property accordingly with the Device Editor ETS App
(recommended).

3.2 Arduino Microcontrollers


For the external microcontroller, we opted for the Arduino open source electronics prototyping platform.
More information can be found via this URL: arduino.cc
The main reason for choosing Arduino is the fact that the Arduino Software (compiler/loader) is free of
charge.
Several types of Arduino microcontrollers exist; we have used Arduino UNO.

Figure 6 Arduino UNO used as KNX Sensor

Details:
Arduino UNO pin 4 serves as input port in order to capture push button events.
Arduino UNO pin 1 serves as serial transmit port, which is connected to RxD of the SIM-KNX.
A simple debounce routine is implemented in order to detect the push button events.
For each push button event an ASCII command is sent to the SIM-KNX.

const int buttonPin = 4;
int buttonState = HIGH;
int KNXoutput = LOW;
long lastDebounceTime = 0;
long debounceDelay = 200;
int TM = 0;

Figure 7 Arduino UNO used as KNX Actuator

Details:
Arduino UNO pin 2 serves as simulation of a KNX binary output channel by means of a LED.
Arduino UNO pin 0 serves as serial receive port, which is connected to TxD of the SIM-KNX.
A simple serial port read routine is implemented in order to capture and process ASCII commands
from the SIM-KNX.
Depending on the actual content of each received ASCII command the LED will either be switched
on or off.

Remarks:
(*) The voltage translator 74LVCC3245 transfers the 3.3V TxD signal from the SIM-KNX into a 5V
RX signal for the Arduino UNO.
(**) Moreover, we even had to double-loop the connection between SIM-KNX TxD (pin 6) and the
voltage translator, around a clamp-on magnetic noise filter.

2 Preparation & Test
2.1 Connect & Play
Install the FT232BL driver
Link: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
This will add a virtual com port to your computer
Use any serial terminal software, e.g. Serial Terminal from RealTerm
Link: http://realterm.sourceforge.net/
Connect the PCB with the PC via USB
Make sure all required jumpers are set correctly: please check the KIMaip documentation.
Screenshot:

Figure 1 Serial terminal software screenshot

Connect
Wire the device.
Open the serial terminal software (see Figure 1).
Click tab page Port.
Select the virtual com port that has been added.
Put its settings to 38400, 8, 1, none.
Play
Click tab page Send.
Make sure to set EOL (end of line) settings to +CR.
Type e.g. 03 61 0002 in the top entry field and click Send ASCII. This command will make the
device send back its individual address. This is a perfect method to test the principal working of the
test setup.

Copyright 2015, KNX Association page 4 of 12


Another command that could be used in this context is e.g.: 03 61 0003 in order to check the
programming mode. Consult the Tapko Technologies KIMaip related documentation for more
details and/or other commands.

2.2 ETS Project


The purpose is to use an ETS project for testing both the sensor and actuator examples, which are further
down explained in this document.
Download the generic KIMaip based ETS project file from this URL: www.tapko.de.
Make e.g. the following associations:
- Group Object 0: LED 1 1 bit with e.g. Group Address 0/0/1
- Group Object 1: LED 2 1 bit with e.g. Group Address 0/0/2

2.3 Use the serial terminal SW to check the device configuration
Connect via USB.
Send the following ASCII commands:
03 31 0000 to check the configuration of GO nr. 0
o expected response: 05 32 0000 00 D7
o In this example: type = 1 bit, flags = U,T, W, C, priority = low
05 38 0000 00 01 to check the first associated GA of GO nr. 0
o expected response: 07 39 0000 00 01 0001
o In this example: 0/0/1 is indeed the sending GA for GO nr. 0

Check the Tapko Technologies documentation for more details.

2.4 Use the serial terminal SW in order to simulate the AM


Connect via USB.
For the Sensor example:
Send e.g. the following ASCII command: 04 10 0000 01 to set the value of Group Object 0 to 1.
Expected result: a A_GroupValue_Write telegram sent from the KIMaip the bus

For the Actuator example:


Send an A_GroupValue_Write telegram to the bus with e.g. ETS Group Monitor.
Expected result: an indication message from the KIMaip in the terminal SW monitor, e.g. 04 20
0000 01

Check the Tapko Technologies documentation for more details.

3.2 Arduino Microcontrollers
For the external microcontroller, we opted for the Arduino open source electronics prototyping platform.
More information can be found via this URL: arduino.cc
The main reason for choosing Arduino is the fact that the Arduino Software (compiler/loader) is free of
charge.
Several types of Arduino microcontrollers exist; we have used Arduino UNO.

Details:
Arduino UNO pin 4 serves as input port in order to capture push button events.
Arduino UNO pin A4 serves as IC SDA port, which is connected to the KIMaip SDA.
Arduino UNO pin A5 serves as IC SCL port, which is connected to the KIMaip SCL.
A simple debounce routine is implemented in order to process the push button events.
For each push button event an ASCII command is sent to the KIMaip.

Important note:
For the Arduino Uno no pull-up resistors shall be used for SDA and SCL.
IC is based on a master-slave principle and KIMaip is always the slave device.

Figure 6 Arduino UNO used as KNX Actuator

Details:
Arduino UNO pin 2 serves as simulation of a KNX binary output channel by means of a LED.
Arduino UNO pin A4 serves as IC SDA port, which is connected to the KIMaip SDA.
Arduino UNO pin A5 serves as IC SCL port, which is connected to the KIMaip SCL.
Arduino UNO pin 4 serves as Data Ready port, which is connected to the KIMaip Data Ready.
A simple IC read routine is implemented in order to capture and process ASCII commands from
the KIMaip.
Depending on the actual content of each received ASCII command the LED will either be switched
on or off.

Important notes:
For the Arduino Uno no pull-up resistors shall be used for SDA and SCL.
Since IC is based on a master-slave principle, where KIMaip is always the slave, the best practice
for using it as actuator is to involve the Data Ready pin in order to indicate bus events to the
master.

Details:

A simple IC read routine is implemented in order to capture and process ASCII commands from
the KIMaip.
Depending on the actual content of each received ASCII command the LED2 will either be
switched on or off.
Important note:
Since IC is based on a master-slave principle, where KIMaip is always the slave, the best practice
for using it as actuator is to involve the Data Ready pin in order to indicate bus events to the
master. TI C pin 3.7 has been used for this purpose, see source code.

2.3 Use the serial terminal SW to check the device configuration
Connect via USB.
Send the following GetServerItem.Req command, e.g.:
0x68,0x05,0x05,0x68,0x73,0xF0,0x01,0x01,0x01,0x66,0x16 (e.g. after reset).
Expected result: GetServerItem.Res message from the BAOS in the terminal SW monitor, e.g. 68 0D
0D 68 F3 F0 81 01 01 01 06 00 00 C5 08 02 01 3D 16. This will be repeated three times because the
serial terminal SW doesnt send the FT1.2 ACKs (0xE5).

Check the Weinzierl Engineering documentation for more details.

2.4 Use the serial terminal SW in order to simulate the AM


Connect via USB.
For the Sensor example:
Send the following alternating commands, e.g.:
o 0x68,0x08,0x08,0x68,0x73,0xF0,0x06,0x01,0x01,0x01,0x31,0x01,0x9E,0x16
o 0x68,0x08,0x08,0x68,0x53,0xF0,0x06,0x01,0x01,0x01,0x31,0x00,0x7D,0x16
Expected result: A_GroupValue_Write telegrams sent from the BAOS to the bus.

For the Actuator example:


Send an A_GroupValue_Write telegrams to the bus with e.g. ETS Group Monitor.
Expected result: indication messages from the BAOS in the serial terminal SW monitor, e.g. 68 08
08 68 D3 F0 C1 01 01 01 81 01 09 16. This will be repeated three times because the serial terminal
SW doesnt send the FT1.2 ACKs (0xE5).

3.2 Arduino Microcontrollers


For the external microcontroller, we opted for the Arduino open source electronics prototyping platform.
More information can be found via this URL: arduino.cc
The main reason for choosing Arduino is the fact that the Arduino Software (compiler/loader) is free of
charge.
Several types of Arduino microcontrollers exist; we have used Arduino UNO.
Install the Arduino IDE:

Details:
Arduino UNO pin 4 serves as input port in order to capture push button events.
Arduino UNO pin 1 serves as serial transmit port, which is connected to RX of the BAOS.
A simple debounce routine is implemented in order to detect the push button events.
For each push button event an ASCII command is sent to the BAOS.

Figure 7 Arduino UNO used as KNX Actuator

Details:
Arduino UNO pin 2 serves as simulation of a KNX binary output channel by means of a LED.
Arduino UNO pin 0 serves as serial receive port, which is connected to TX of the BAOS.
A simple serial port read routine is implemented in order to capture and process ASCII commands
from the BAOS.
Depending on the actual content of each received ASCII command the LED will either be switched
on or off.

Remark:
In the source code (see further) an acknowledge byte (0xE5) is sent after each received BAOS
message. This obviously is only effective if the Arduino UNO pin 1 (TX) is connected to RD of the
BAOS (which is not the case in the above figure).

Copyright 2015, KNX Association page 3 of 13


2 Preparation & Test
2.1 Connect & Play
Install the FT232RL driver
Link: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
This will add a virtual com port to your computer
Use any serial terminal software, e.g. Serial Terminal from RealTerm
Link: http://realterm.sourceforge.net/
Connect the PCB with the PC via USB
Screenshot:

Figure 1 Serial Terminal screenshot

Connect
Wire the device.
Open the serial terminal software (see Figure 1).
Click tab page Port.
Select the virtual com port that has been added.
Put its settings to 19200, 8, 1, even.
Play
Click tab page Send.
Type e.g. 0x10,0x40,0x40,0x16 in the top entry field and click Send Numbers. This command
will reset the device. The device confirms by sending an FT1.2 ACK (0xE5). This is a perfect
method to test the principal working of the test setup.

2.3 Use the serial terminal SW to check the device configuration
Connect via USB.
Send the following GetServerItem.Req command, e.g.:
0x68,0x05,0x05,0x68,0x73,0xF0,0x01,0x01,0x01,0x66,0x16 (e.g. after reset).
Expected result: GetServerItem.Res message from the BAOS in the terminal SW monitor, e.g. 68 0D
0D 68 F3 F0 81 01 01 01 06 00 00 C5 08 02 01 3D 16. This will be repeated three times because the
serial terminal SW doesnt send the FT1.2 ACKs (0xE5).

Check the Weinzierl Engineering documentation for more details.

2.4 Use the serial terminal SW in order to simulate the AM


Connect via USB.
For the Sensor example:
Send the following alternating commands, e.g.:
o 0x68,0x08,0x08,0x68,0x73,0xF0,0x06,0x01,0x01,0x01,0x31,0x01,0x9E,0x16
o 0x68,0x08,0x08,0x68,0x53,0xF0,0x06,0x01,0x01,0x01,0x31,0x00,0x7D,0x16
Expected result: A_GroupValue_Write telegrams sent from the BAOS to the bus.

For the Actuator example:


Send an A_GroupValue_Write telegrams to the bus with e.g. ETS Group Monitor.
Expected result: indication messages from the BAOS in the serial terminal SW monitor, e.g. 68 08
08 68 D3 F0 C1 01 01 01 81 01 09 16. This will be repeated three times because the serial terminal
SW doesnt send the FT1.2 ACKs (0xE5).
