KNX 6.024

[ident]

The new firmware is available from https://www.cytech.biz/ucmknx_firmware.h...ory_id=101

Known Bugs

1. KNX to Comfort for Keypad keys, Panic, Time, Date, Arm system, Bypass zone do not work.
   

Bugs Fixed

1. If a Floating Point Telegram Type is mapped to a Sensor, receiving a telegram may cause a telegram to be sent to KNX with the value of 1. This problem was reported in http://www.comfortforums.com/forum12/2150.html
2. If a 1-bit Drive Control Telegram is mapped to a counter 255 this may cause a spurious Response from Comfort to KNX.  This problem was reported in http://www.comfortforums.com/forum12/2816.html

Improvements

1. Send Floating Point EIS5 Telegram allows -32768 to + 32767

Please note that products purchased  may not have the latest firmware. Firmware can be upgraded using another  UCM and Comfigurator

Hello,
i noticed an important different behaviour than old firmware.

If a KNX group address sends a \"ON\" telegram, successive \"ON\" telegrams will not trigger the response associated to the COUNTER linked to the KNX group address, until a new \"OFF\" telegram is sent.
In other words, response is not triggered if the actual group address value is equal to the previous value.

\"KNX Group address value\" versus \"response\"
ON ----> trig response
ON ---->
OFF ---> trig response
OFF --->
ON ----> trig response
OFF ---> trig response
etc....


With older firmware, the response was triggered everytime a telegram arrives, irrespective of the previous value.

\"KNX Group address value\" versus \"response\"
ON ----> trig response
ON ----> trig response
OFF ---> trig response
OFF ---> trig response
ON ----> trig response
OFF ---> trig response
etc....


May this related to this topic ?

Please confirm if this is a bug or it\'s a normal behaviour that will be mantained in future releases.
Thanks
Keep up the good work.

Best regards.
Massimo

No it is not a bug
What is the preference? activate responses only when changed  or regardless of change ?

[TheMax74]

Regardless, thanks.

Hi Chiu
Only when the value has changed should a telegram be transmitted

[ident]

If a KNX button is programmed to always send an ON telegram, eg as in a Scene button, that means that Comfort would not activate any response
Only when the button toggles the value, would responses work

It seems like the \"old\" way should be better, that Comfort activates the Response regradless of whether the telegram has the same value

[TheMax74]

Yes ident. You are correct. If you need to filter telegrams, you can do it in the response code.

[TheMax74]

Ident, can you attach to this post an old firmware? Thanks
