The EIB / KNX bus can be accessed in multiple ways:
I use a [http://www.tapko.de/sim-knx.html Tapko EIB/KNX to RS232 converter].
+
* a [http://www.tapko.de/sim-knx.html Tapko EIB/KNX to RS232 converter] allows to control the bus [[Install EIB Tapko|via a serial port]].
It requires following connections:
+
* a [https://hit.sbt.siemens.com/HIT/fs_global.aspx?&MODULE=Catalog&ACTION=ShowProduct&KEY=5WG1146-1AB02 Siemens EIB/KNX IP Router] allows to control the bus [[Install EIB eibd|via Ethernet]].
RxD (pin 2), TxD (pin 3), DTR (pin 4, powers the device), Gnd (pin 5).

Before all,make sure you have installed an [[install xpl hub|xPL hub]] and an  [[install serial port|xPL serial port device]].

= Install xPL EIB bridge =
+
[[Category: all]] [[Category: install]] [[Category: xPL]]
 
+
Download the [http://www.dspc.ch/xPL/Downloads/xpl-eib-Tapko.pl Tapko EIB bridge] script.
+
 
+
Move the script to xPL scripts directory:
+
SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR=/home/control/Documents/Controls
+
mv xpl-eib-Tapko.pl $SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR
+
chown control:users $SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR/*.pl
+
chmod 775 $SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR/*.pl
+
 
+
= Test xPL EIB bridge =
+
 
+
The test is shown here on a Linux machine such as a [[install BeagleBone|BeagleBone]].
+
It has to be slightly adapted on Mac OS.
+
 
+
Open a first terminal window (on any machine with xPL installed) and monitor the xPL protocol:
+
SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR=/home/control/Documents/Controls
+
$SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR/xpl-monitor.pl -vf
+
 
+
If the  [[install serial port|xPL serial port device]] isn't running, launch it in a second window:
+
su control
+
SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR=/home/control/Documents/Controls
+
ll /dev/ttyO*
+
$SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR/xpl-serial_port.pl -h
+
$SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR/xpl-serial_port.pl -v -n eib -e '\x0A\x0D' /dev/ttyO1 baudrate 9600 databits 8 parity none stopbits 1 handshake none
+
 
+
Open a further terminal window and start the xPL EIB bridge:
+
SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR=/home/control/Documents/Controls
+
$SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR/xpl-eib-Tapko.pl -v -n home -s dspc-serPort.eib -v
+
 
+
Open yet another terminal and send a message to the EIB bridge:
+
su control
+
SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR=/home/control/Documents/Controls
+
$SCRIPTS_BASE_DIR/xpl-send.pl -v -t cmnd -d dspc-eib.home -c eib.basic group='1/1/1' data=0x01
+
 
+
This should turn on EIB device <code>1/1/1</code>.
+
The monitor window should show how the EIB budge message triggered a serial port message
+
for the [http://www.tapko.de/sim-knx.html Tapko EIB/KNX to RS232 converter].
+
 
+
= Launch the xPL serial port device at startup =
+
 
+
The EIB bridge is to be launched after the xPL serial port device
+
which in turn is to be launched after the xPL hub.
+
 
+
Installing the serial port device to launch at system boot is described in the
+
[[install serial port#Launch the xPL serial port device at startup|xPL serial port]] page.
+
 
+
== Ubuntu ==
+
 
+
On Ubuntu, the xPL serial port device emits <code>xpl-eibSerialPort_started</code> at startup.
+
This will be used to state-up the xPL EIB bridge.
+
 
+
Edit <code>/etc/init/xpl-eib.conf</code>:
