Hello Gurus,
This is just my first week with home automation/Openhab, need your inputs.
I have an ABB home automation setup with an Exor Ebis 507 panel to control the lights, etc.
Now, the automation panel (Exor ebis 507) has a PLCM02 plug-in module installed which connects to KNX using TP interface.
I was able to get the Alexa to OpenHab2 interface working, but having some trouble setting up the OpenHab2 to KNX interface.
I’ve connected the automation panel to my WiFi network, but I’m unable to connect OpenHab to KNX via TUNNEL option where it uses the automation panel as a Gateway to KNX.
It tries to connect via port 6720 & 3671, but both fail. The IP I mention in knx.cfg is of the automation panel as that is the only interface I have to connect to KNX.
Could you suggest how I could connect OpenHab to KNX in my setup?
I was able to connect OpenHab to KNX bus via a ROUTER option where it connects to KNX bus via the default IP:PORT 224.0.23.12:3671. But I don’t think the KNX commands actually reach the KNX bus as I don’t see any confirmation message in the logs.

Here OpenHab is trying to send ’ 2/1/5’ to the KNX bus.
Another thing I’ve noticed is that the automation panel has a OPC-UA server that I’ve enabled.
Is there a way to get access to the KNX bus using the OPC-UA server ?
Appreciate your inputs.
