BatiBUS

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

BatiBus was a network protocol for

KNX. It was a relatively simple low-cost protocol that did not rely on dedicated chips.[1]

The system was run by the BatiBus Club International (BCI),[2] which was founded by the Swiss company Landis & Gyr and the French companies AIRELEC, Electricité de France and Merlin Gerin (who originated the concept). Predominately used in France and captured by French Electrical Standard NF C 46620, it provided layers 1, 2 and 7 of the OSI model. Approximately 500,000 BatiBus network units were installed, mainly in France.

BatiBus communicated over

CSMA/CA[3] and had data flow controls. The maximum data transfer rate was 4800 bits/s.[4]
