Hi all, I bought some time ago the **Weinzierl KNX BAOS Module 838 kBerry** … hoping to make this run with OH2. The goal was to have all on board to connect to the KNX BUS - without additional hardware. Today I sat down - and could make it run. What to do: - I am running: openHAB 2.3.0 Build #1268 - but earlier versions might work already - run “sudo openhabian-config” and install “optional Components” → 27 - knxd - edit sudo nano /etc/default/knxd - change one line to: KNXD\_OPTIONS=“–eibaddr=1.1.44 --client-addrs=1.1.45:5 -d -D -T -R -S -i --listen-local=/tmp/knx -b ft12cemi:/dev/ttyAMA0” → careful: the line does not end with tpuarts … - (1.1.44 is the pysical address of the module, 1.1.45.. are more clients - must be free in KNX) After changing knx.things to the local ipaddress and the free address 1.1.99 it is running !! (my openhabian is ..129) Bridge knx:ip:bridge [ ipAddress=“192.168.1.129”, portNumber=3671, localIp=“192.168.1.129”, type=“TUNNEL”, readingPause=50, responseTimeout=10, readRetriesLimit=3, autoReconnectPeriod=1, localSourceAddr=“0.0.0” ] { …here the devices … } More beef at: > **[Weinzierl KNX BAOS Module 838 kBerry - KNX-User-Forum](https://knx-user-forum.de/forum/projektforen/knxd/1070372-weinzierl-knx-baos-module-838-kberry)** > > Liebe Knxd'ler, > > hat jemand das 838er Modul mit knxd am Pi am laufen? Das scheint nicht so einfach zu sein, wenn ich das mal hier (https://knx-user-forum.de/forum/supportforen/openhab/944881-raspberry-pi3-und-die-serielle-schnittstelle) lese. Gibt es... … Great !!!

Dear Michael, I have also this module. I think you can make it work with KNXD, but i think Knxd is diffucult to configure and make the project. Because some installers had written as this. So i want to work it with new paper ui and its knx binding. I have installed it with new openhab and tried so hard, it seems green now in things page. But it doesn’t control the Knx equipment, i think there is a small problem, so it can’t work. How can i work it ? Is there anybody who can help me? Thanks, ---

Hi Mehmet, yes - knxd has many options, but the installation via the openhab config and the change of /etc/default/knxd is all what I did - plus a reboot. DON’t get confused by paperUI messages. Only the gateway is online - and this is what you shoud achieve frist. The device/devices can be unknown or offline. Just start with a simple switch … Is the green LED on the board flashing that you see traffic?!! Michael ---

> [@martmiwp](#): > > confuse Yes it is flashing when i pushed the normal knx switch. also when i created the simple switch item via paper ui and want to control over “control” section in paper ui, its host led is blinking but knx led is not. ---

Yes i have added it via paper ui as Knx FT 1.2 gateway and i have selected the ttyAMA0. ---

Hello Michael I think you had installed the knxd. I haven’t intalled it. I have just installed the knx 2.3 binding via paper ui. And my thing file is already empty. So what should i do? And i want to learn this, can i work the kberry with openhab knx binding or can’t? Thanks for your kindly answers ---

OK … now we are in synch … Open a command line and enter: sudo openhabian-config Select: 20 - Optional Components Select: 27 - knxd Answer the question: Perform patch with “N” … get a pizza / wait at least 45 min … Now edit sudo nano /etc/default/knxd change one line to: KNXD\_OPTIONS=“–eibaddr=1.1.44 --client-addrs=1.1.45:5 -d -D -T -R -S -i --listen-local=/tmp/knx -b ft12cemi:/dev/ttyAMA0” Reboot and type: ps -eaf | grep knxd You should see the knxd running … Enjoy! ---

Ok.Understood I will install it. But i want to ask you, without knxd, with openhab 2.3 knx binding, isn’t it possible to run kberry? Thanks ---
