                  The connection can be implemented for example via an external interface which
                  translates the internal, manufacturer-specific bus into KNX via a gateway. This is not an
                  unusual method as a considerable number of HVAC manufacturers allow their
                  installations to communicate via proprietary bus systems.
                  A more widespread solution in this market is internal plug-in cards which function as an
                  extension module in the respective installation and make a connection available to KNX.
                  In both versions, the heating is integrated into ETS as a device.
