Functionality/Purpose of the Gateway

Overall Design

 

The design goal of the Gateway is to provide an interface to the IP-world, which translates all EnOcean devices into a meaningful, clear and simple description which then can be used by IP-controllers or software to connect EnOcean devices.

The interface provides logic in the sense, that it facilitates the use of EnOcean devices by providing i.e. last states or consistency in the wording of the values and so on. The translation is on EnOcean Equipment Profiles (EEP) level and exposes all functions of all devices through translation of the individual telegrams.

There is no application logic in the gateway that provides "If this than that" functionality. This should be handled by software on a higher level.
