+## Bus Extender
+
+When an electrical panel is saturated, it can be useful to move a part of the Wago controller a bit further away. For this purpose, it is possible to extend the communication bus between Wago modules using an RJ45 network cable. However, it is important to note that this is not an Ethernet network; connecting the bus directly to an Ethernet switch is not an option.
+
+To create an extension, two specific modules are required:
+
+- Module 750-627: the beginning of the extension. Place this module at the end of the first Wago line, replacing the terminator usually present.

+![module](/en/hardware/wago/images/750-627bis.jpg?width=10pc&classes=shadow)
+
+- Module 750-628: the end of the extension, and potentially the beginning of the next one. Place this module at the beginning of the second Wago line, then place the input/output modules, followed by the terminator that you initially had at the end of the chain.

+![module](/en/hardware/wago/images/750-628bis.jpg?width=10pc&classes=shadow)
+
+The principle is straightforward. Simply activate the extender option and place the modules; no special programming is required. The maximum cable length between two modules is 5m. The documentation indicates the possibility of extending up to 10m with certain Wago heads, and on forums, it is common to see testimonials of lengths greater than 5m. This is probably due to interference and the stability of the transmitted signal. It is advisable to use good quality cable, such as Category 6, for example. This module has a switch with two positions 0/1, indicating whether it is chained to another bus extender.
+
+- 0: Yes, there is still an RJ45 cable and a 3rd Wago bus,
+- 1: No, no other extender. The second RJ45 port is not used.
+
+The 24V power supply is not transmitted through the RJ45 cable, so it must be provided by another cable to power the second part of the Wago.
+
+## Enabling the Bus Extender Option
+
+It is necessary to check a box on the free software **Wago Extension Setting**.
+
+![module](/en/hardware/wago/images/wagoextensionsetting1.jpg?width=10pc&classes=shadow)
+
+Go to the "Connection" section and enter the IP address of the Wago controller. Ensure beforehand that your PC and the controller can communicate over the network.
+
+The main window displays "Device at X.X.X.X" and "Ready" in the lower part of the window.
+
+Select the "Enable" button to activate the extender option.
+
+That's it, you're done.
+
+If not already done, plug in the cable and, if necessary, restart the controller. It should recognize all your input/output modules as before.

+
+## Alternative Solution
+
+An alternative method is to only relocate the relays to a secondary panel. For this, a stranded cable (20×0.8, for example) must be pulled so that the relays can be controlled remotely from the Wago.

+## Analog Input or Output Module
+
+Among the data that one may want to measure in a house, there are many sensors that do not provide binary outputs. These sensors are connected in various ways and return an analog value. For instance, humidity sensors, sunlight sensors, brightness sensors, etc., fall into this category. Similarly, certain equipment can be controlled analogically in the range of 0-10V, such as ventilation regulators.
+
+The Wago system allows connecting these types of sensors through analog terminals. There are different types of terminals depending on the type of data returned by the sensor or the type of equipment to be controlled. Therefore, we have terminals for 0-10V, 4-20mA, -10V/+10V, etc. It is best to consult Wago's website to find the appropriate terminal.

+![module](/en/hardware/wago/images/borne_outanalog_0-10v.jpg?width=10pc&classes=shadow)
+
+## Wiring
+
+The wiring depends on the type of equipment and terminal. However, it remains relatively simple and is similar to the wiring of temperature sensors. It is advisable to consult Wago's documentation and that of the equipment to be controlled.
+
+## Programming
+
+Configuring an output is done using the [Calaos Installer]({{%relref "calaos_installer/wago" %}}) software. You will need to use a Wago analog input or output in Calaos Installer, then specify the variable number to be controlled.

+## DMX Interface Module
+
+### DMX 512
+
+Among the lighting control methods, there are several well-defined standards that have been widely used for a long time. One of these standards is [DMX512](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMX512), commonly known as DMX (Digital Multiplexing).
+
+It is primarily used in the stage industry (concerts, TV sets, light and sound shows) for dynamic lighting control. This protocol has some advantages for residential home automation use. DMX512 is currently the most widespread and universal protocol, used everywhere and by all manufacturers of stage lighting equipment.
+
+Therefore, power dimmer blocks capable of controlling multiple devices are available at very affordable prices. These blocks can also support higher power loads than what could be achieved with DALI.
+
+## Implementation
+
+To facilitate integration with a Calaos system, we have chosen to use a simple DMX ↔ Ethernet gateway. This gateway converts commands from the Ethernet network and transmits them over the DMX link.
+
+The gateway used is available at [DMX4ALL](https://shop.dmx4all.de/de/dmx4all-produkte/dmx-interfaces/usb-dmx-interfaces/) under the reference LAN-DMX-STAGE-PROFI.
+
+![module](/en/hardware/wago/images/lan_dmx_stage_profi.jpg?width=10pc&classes=shadow)
+
+## Wiring
+
+This gateway should be connected to the automation network, either through a switch or through the double network port of the 750-849 controller head. The DMX blocks will be connected to the DMX bus. It is advisable to place a 120Ω termination resistor at the end of the DMX bus on the last DMX device.
+
+![module](/en/hardware/wago/images/schema_dmx.png?width=20pc&classes=shadow)
+
+## Programming
+
+### Addresses
+
+Since the DMX gateway communicates with the controller over the Ethernet network, it should have the following default IP address: **10.0.0.120**. It is possible to change this IP using Calaos Installer on the controller.
+
+![module](/en/hardware/wago/images/calaos_wago_dmx.jpg?width=10pc&classes=shadow)
+
+For simplicity in managing the Calaos system, a DMX device is treated as a DALI device. This allows the controller to handle DALI and DMX lighting in the same way. Programming becomes entirely transparent. However, it should be noted that DMX address 1 is equivalent to DALI address 101, DMX 2 corresponds to DALI 102, and so on.
+
+Programming is also done using the [Calaos Installer]({{%relref "calaos_installer/wago" %}}) software. You can adjust the lighting intensity just like with DALI lighting elements.

+## KNX Installation
+
+It is possible to use the Wago controller to manage a KNX installation and act as a KNX gateway.
+
+KNX is a standardized communication protocol for smart buildings. KNX emerged from the merger of the EHS, EIB (or Instabus), and Bâtibus standards.
+
+Unlike a standard electrical installation, there is no wired connection between the control units and the power supply: for example, a switch is not directly connected to the corresponding lamp. Indeed, devices and electrical equipment are connected via the BUS, which operates at 28 V. All BUS devices can be programmed using a common tool. Thus, the KNX BUS allows for a simple and highly flexible installation. Furthermore, subsequent modifications can be made without touching the wiring.
+
+One of the advantages of using the Wago controller with KNX is the ability to have a degraded mode where the controller can turn on a light using a relay with a KNX push-button, for example.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+The Calaos system requires several components to work with the KNX bus:
+
+- A Wago station head 750-849
+- A Wago terminal 753-646
+- A 30Vdc KNX power supply to power the KNX bus
+- KNX modules
+- ETS4 / ETS5 software for configuration
+
+## Architecture
+
+The KNX bus communicates over a twisted pair (TP) link.
+
+However, it is possible to communicate over other media:
+
+- Through power line (PL)
+- Through radio frequency (RF)
+- Through infrared
+- Through Ethernet (KNX over IP)
+
+Each element connected to the KNX bus is independent of the others. It can send information that will be received by other elements but processed only by the relevant element.
+
+![pic](/en/hardware/wago/images/bus_knx_.png?width=20pc&classes=shadow)
+
+PL: Power Line TP: Twisted Pair
+
+### Power Supply
+
+The bus must be powered with a nominal DC voltage of 29V. Most components are powered directly by the bus. The lower limit of the supply voltage is 21V. The average consumption of a component is around 10 mA.
+
+### Bus Limits
+
+Like all buses, KNX has cable length limits to respect.
+
+- Maximum distance between two modules: 700 m
+- Maximum distance between a module and its power supply: 350 m
+- Maximum length of the bus: 1000 m
+- Maximum distance between two power supplies: 200 m
+
+![pic](/en/hardware/wago/images/wago.png?width=20pc&classes=shadow)
+
+## Topologies
+
+An installation can be divided into lines and zones. A line contains a maximum of **64 participants** (modules). A zone has a maximum of **15 lines** connected to the main line by line couplers. A backbone connects a maximum of **15 zones** through zone couplers.

+## 4-Channel Temperature Sensor Modules
+
+A home automation system must gather information about ambient temperature, whether it's outdoor or indoor. Temperature acquisition is done through [PT1000](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_thermometer#Pt) temperature sensors. This input module accepts 4 direct connections of PT1000 temperature sensors. The connection is made with 2-wire probes.
+
+The linearization across the entire temperature range is performed by the internal electronics of the module.
+
+![module](/en/hardware/wago/images/borne_pt1000.jpg?width=10pc&classes=shadow)
+
+## Wiring
+
+The wiring of the probes is done as shown in the diagram below.
+
+![module](/en/hardware/wago/images/schema_pt1000.png?width=20pc&classes=shadow)
+
+The terminal has 4 status LEDs indicating whether the probe is correctly connected or short-circuited. If the LED corresponding to the input is red, there is a short circuit. If the LED is off, the connection is good.
+
+## Heating Management
+
+Heating management should be done with one temperature sensor per zone, coupled with an actuator (a binary output, for example). Usually, you can easily control a heating zone by connecting a solenoid valve to the desired circuit, then connect this solenoid valve to a relay output.
+
+## Programming
+
+Configuring an input is done using the [Calaos Installer]({{%relref "calaos_installer/wago" %}}) software. You will need the input number of the sensor. For example, in the diagram above, sensor 0 is connected to **analog PLC input 0** and sensor 2 is connected to **analog PLC input 2**. Proper labeling is necessary to know the number of each sensor.
+
+Of course, the numbering starts with the first analog input terminal and continues with the following analog input terminals. So the first terminal starts at 0, the next one at 4, etc.
