4. The NXB-KNX Virtual Device is indicated in the appropriate line (FIG. 27):
To facilitate cross-line and cross-area communication, all group addresses which do not originate from a device that is
located on the immediate line must be linked with the appropriate communication object on the NXB-KNX Virtual
Device.
For example, FIG. 28 indicates Light G, Light E and Light A (which are all of type 1 Bit) are linked with the NXB-KNX
Virtual Device 1 Bit communication object.
1. Create this linkage for all group addresses which do not originate within the line at which the NXB-KNX is
physically attached.
2. Repeat this process starting with the Adding the Virtual Device to the ETS3 Project for all additional NXB-KNX's
in your installation.
