KNX error: Unit not mapped

KNX error: Unit not mapped

Introduction

With ETS 6.2.2, new parameters are part of the ETS Export file. Currently, FIN5 can’t handle these parameters which results in an error during discovery.

If you are using the Latest Version of ETS (V6.2.2 or higher), new IPv6 related parameters are part of the .knxproj export file. This new structure within this file leads to error during discovery of the group addresses in the KNX Connector.

To avoid this, do not use this latest version of ETS if possible, or apply one of the proposed workarounds.

Edit the project file

Manually adapt the .knxproj file and remove the IPv6 relevant part (which is not needed anyway).

  • Export the ETS project as a .knxproj file

  • Rename the .knxproj extension to .zip

  • Open the .zip file and copy the knx_master.xml file elsewhere

  • Edit the knx_master.xml file using a text editor (e.g. Notepad++)

  • Find the line containing DPST-285-1_F-1 by searching with ctrl + f for the text DPST-285-1_F-1

  • Delete the part highlighted in red

  • Save the file

  • Copy the modified knx_master.xml file back into the .zip folder to replace the existing one

  • Rename the .zip extension back to .knxproj

  • Import this file into FIN5

Add custom units in FIN5

You can either create some custom units, or import the file , and restart the service. If you already have custom units, importing the file will overwrite them.
