Thank you for choosing DIVUS KNXSERVER with

OPTIMA interface!

This document should give you a short overview to the OPTIMA interface.

Don't consider it a manual, since OPTIMA was conceived in a way that its

configuration and usage doesn't require any sophisticated documentation. All

information is integrated in the interface, at critical passages pop-ups and help

pages will assist you. This document should only get you an overview to the

interface and disclose you the possibilities of KNXSERVER.

ATTENTION: this document explains only the OPTIMA interface! If you use

KNXSERVER with CLASSIC interface, please refer to the documentation of the

CLASSIC interface!

Further information can be found in the internet (www.divus.eu), for specific

questions you can also refer to our technical support:

1. The first access

If you are trying to connect to KNXSERVER for the first time, please proceed as

listed below:

Connect the power cable and a network cable to DIVUS KNXSERVER and wait around

1 minute until the system is ready.

If KNXSERVER is connected directly to your computer, please use a cross-over cable;

otherwise (if KNXSERVER is connected to a hub/switch/router) use a normal cable.

At delivery KNXSERVER has the following network address (default configuration):

192.168.0.110

If your network does not support this address, proceed as follows:

Edit temporarily your network connection parameters as shown in the following

pictures, in order to be able to communicate with the server

Open the network connection status window by double-clicking the icon in the

taskbar or in the network connections (Windows control panel) and click on

“Properties”.

Select “Internet protocol (TCP/IP)” among the available components, then click on

the “Properties” button again.

Set an IP address manually using the settings as shown in the figure above on the

right.

Check the communication with KNXSERVER by choosing “Run” on Windows

“Start” menu and writing “ping 192.168.0.110”; if the output is similar to the

one presented in figure, the communication is correct.

If a timeout error is shown, the connection is not properly established. In such

a case, try a direct connection with the PC using a cross-over cable, if not

already done before.

As next step, please install and open the free browser Google Chrome (located

on the KNXSERVER –CD) and insert the following URL into the address bar:

https://192.168.0.110

A login window will appear where you can insert the following user-password

combination:

User name

Password

Administrator

admin

In the connection you will be redirected to the home page of the OPTIMA

interface, which at this moment will be empty. You can find some information

about the presented menus and functions in the next chapter.

2. The interface

With the new DIVUS OPTIMA interface KNXSERVER offers you the perfect

fusion of intuitive usability and functionality. The visualized contents can be

adjusted optimally to your needs, moreover you have the possibility to attain

access to all the functions of the interface in a matter of seconds through the

symbols at the edge of the display area. The following screenshot describes the

available functions:

Date / Time

Shows date and system time of

KNXSERVER. All configured timers and

schedule functions use this values as

reference.

Alarm clock

Create up to 8 alarm clocks which can

be assigned to the singular days of the

week. KNXSERVER reminds you of

important appointments or can just be

used as your daily alarm buzzer.

Cleaning function

inputs of the touch screen of the client

PC. In this way accidental operation

during the cleaning can be excluded.

The cleaning mode is deactivated

automatically after one minute.

OnScreen keyboard

Permits to fade in / out an onscreen

keyboard that can be used through the

touch screen of the client PC. The

onscreen keyboard can be used in order

to make text inputs within the OPTIMA

interface.

This function disables the automatic

return to the Home page. This can be

useful if you want to make permanent

the visualization of a certain page of

your project or of one of the plug-ins. In

this case, just navigate to the desired

page and activate the pin symbol.

Home button

This is the primary button of the

OPTIMA interface. It allows you not only

to return to the Home page, but after a

long click (3 seconds) it will also open

the „QuickNavigator“, which enables a

quick access to all the pages of your

visualization.

Plug-in menu

Permits to access the integrated plug-ins

(like for example weather preview,

family board or intercom function). On

the following pages you will find more

information regarding the individual

plug-ins.

Indicator

Shows you the name of the visualized

page / plug-in. This guarantees

maximum overview and prevents you

from getting lost.

Page changer

Permits you to quickly pass from one

page of your visualization to the next.

This elements can be used as alternative

to the „Swipe“-gesture, which is

explained in the following chapter.

Administration menu

This button allows accessing the

administrator menu of the OPTIMA

interface, which permits to change

various parameters and settings.

3. Touch gestures

In order to keep the usage of KNXSERVER as simple and intuitive as possible,

the interface implements so-called touch gestures, which can be applied on the

DIVUS TouchPCs used as clients. These should help the user with the navigation

and make functions faster and simpler accessible. The following touch gestures

have been integrated in OPTIMA RC3:

„Swipe“

This gesture can be used to change between the pages of your visualization. Simply

move your finger along the desired direction on the touch screen and you will

automatically get to the next page. The same functionality can be obtained by using the

page changer elements mentioned before.

www.divus.eu

Page 7/16

„LongClick“

If used on the Home button or on the KNX functions of your visualization, this gesture

can be used to activate special functions. A „LongClick“on the Home button launches

the QuickNavigator, meanwhile a „LongClick”on a KNX function opens a context menu

with further options. Both special functions are explained in the next chapter.

„Scroll“

Unlike traditional scrolling through scrollbars or arrow buttons, DIVUS OPTIMA allows

you to scroll at any position. In pages, whose contents are not completely visualized,

simply move the finger in the desired direction over the touch screen in order to

execute the corresponding scroll movement.

„Drag&Drop“

This gesture is used above all in the wizard and allows you to move objects from one

place to another. Use Drag&Drop in order to assign KNX functions to the corresponding

rooms / pages or to rearrange the disposal of the rooms / pages.

4. QuickNavigator and context menu

As mentioned before, the „LongClick“ gesture can be used to activate special

functions (on a classic ClientPC, the “LongClick” corresponds to a simple right

click):

„LongClick“on Home button:

The QuickNavigator is a pop-up window which offers you

the possibility to jump directly to the single pages of your

visualization. Therefore you don't have to go through your

complete visualization in order to reach the last page, but

you can also do this directly through the QuickNavigator.

„LongClick“on KNX function:

Just like the QuickNavigator, also the context menu of KNX functions

is opened as pop-up window in consequence of a "LongClick" gesture.

In OPTIMA RC3 the context menu can be used for example to add

functions to the Home page or to schedule the selected function.

These functions are accessible to all users.

5. The administration menu

The administration menu of KNXSERVER is used to configure and maintain the

Below you can find an overview of the contained menus:

OPTIMA wizard (access restricted to installer):

functions, which means that the wizard can also be managed by KNX newcomers. Just try it

button).

This menu permits to change complex parameters regarding the management of intercom

systems. Normally these parameters do not need to be changed, since they already are

pre-configured in the correct way.

6. The additional functions (plug-ins):

Right beneath the Home button you will find the menu bar of the additional functions

of KNXSERVER. This so called plug-ins offer a great advantage: they are already

preconfigured and can be integrated into your visualization with minimum effort. At

the end of the OPTIMA wizard you can select and configure the desired plug-ins and

add them to the visualization. The menu bar will only show the plug-ins which were

actually added to your visualization.

Even the configuration of the plug-ins is self-explanatory and is documented within

the wizard. The following pages should just reveal the possibilities the plug-ins can

offer by using them:
