1. Intelligent building system EIB IP-Gateway

2. IP-Gateway IG/S 1.1 MDRC, 6 modules wide
Supply with 230 V AC and / or 12 V DC (backup)
10 MBit Ethernet connection (RJ45)
Additional function: Programming of EIB devices over LAN with the iETS client of the ETS (from ETS2 V1.3 on)

3. IP-Gateway IG/S 1.1
Converts EIB telegrams in IP-telegrams and vice versa

4. IP-Gateway IG/S 1.1 Advantages
Usage as area- or line coupler The IG/S can be used as an area- or line coupler. Thereby the local network (LAN) is used as a fast arealine (backbone).
Higher data transfer rate By using the LAN as a backbone a higher data transfer rate is possible (10 MBit <-> 9,6 kBit).

The ROUTER must be configured by the administrator, that it transmits the multicast telegrams sent by the IG/S !

10. IP-Gateway IG/S 1.1 More advantages
Easier interfaces Visualisation and other PC applications can easier get data from EIB devices. They can listen to the telegrams on the LAN (-> OPC). They don´t need EIB interfaces themselves.
Open for the future A lot of devices in the household and in the office today already have Ethernet connections. With an IG/S the EIB is open for communication to other systems and devices.

With OPC Server
OPC server (1x per installation)
OPC client 1 (e.g. visualisation)
The OPC server is a software. If necessary it can be installed on the same PC, which runs the client (e.g. visualisation).
The OPC client(s) send and receive data only to/from the OPC server. They „don‘t know“ EIB telegrams.
The OPC server gets all data from the IG/S and converts them into OPC objects.
