The ETS-App Update Copy Convert provides a series of useful functions for the ETS application and device configuration (parameters and group addresses) in an ETS project.
The functions are:
Update: Changes the application program to a later or earlier version while retaining current configurations.
Convert: Transfers/adopts a configuration from an identical or compatible source device.
Channel Copy: Copies a channel configuration to other channels on a multichannel device.
Channel Exchange: Exchanges configurations between two channels on a multichannel device.
Import/Export: Saves and reads device configurations as external files.

"Check and Improve" helps you ensure and improve the formal quality of your ETS projects. This includes the verification and semi-automatic correction of spelling, configurable naming conventions, and the assignment of Datapoint types.
Without much effort, the project gets more clearly arranged, better maintainable and will be the perfect base for further use, e.g. for a visualization.
Some details:
The Spell checker can make use of many freely available dictionaries in lots of languages e.g. from the OpenOffice and Mozilla projects, plus user dictionaries for additional words.
The naming conventions can be defined by combining building blocks like "alternative", "concatenation", "list of allowed names", "list of names from project", "pattern" etc. to a rule.
The Datapoint type assignment has access to an online database with information currently about approx. 1000 application programs (continuously growing).
The current app version works only from ETS 5.7.2! The app is available for ETS6.
The ETS App Extended Copy is used to quickly create similar structures in a project. During the copy process, a dedicated dialog will allow devices, bus lines, even complete building parts together with their destination address assignments, configuration, Group Addresses, links, text descriptions and other information to be adjusted. Thereafter, the configuration is inserted seamlessly.
Area of application:
The app for the GPLA can be used to conveniently transfer projects from the GIRA Planning Assistant to the ETS. The transfer can be carried out using a transfer code or a file from the GIRA Planning Assistant.
The building structure and group addresses are adopted for new projects.
Easy2ETS tool can be used to read out an installation made of Easy Hager and Berker devices configured with TXA100 and to take over the configuration with ETS.
Note:
- RF Devices cannot be read out.
- Bus access and ETS products data are required (product database).
With the KNXtool-App you can import all KNXtool project information such as your devices, building structure, topology, group addresses and functions (complete with all relevant channel text, ID’s, Tags, etc.) directly into ETS.
The KNXtool is a comprehensive web based KNX design and planning tool which allows you to design, plan, manage, budget and document KNX system installations using one single software.
The KNXtool uses a drag-and-drop interface so you can graphically design and plan KNX projects with speed and accuracy.
With the ETS App My Device Templates you can configure devices in your project, save the configuration as template and then reuse it in other projects as well so that you do not have to configure the devices again and again in the same way.
Compare your current ETS project with an earlier version of the project (knxproj file or restore point) and get a detailed list of all differences for each individual project element. Jump directly from the difference list to the corresponding element. Many options control details of the comparison.
The current app version works only from ETS 5.7.2! You cannot use the app with ETS6.
With the ETS App Replace Device, you can replace KNX devices while keeping their Group Addresses. This is possible for devices with similar functionality, regardless of the manufacturer.
