The EEP (EnOcean Equipment Profile) identifies each device type by a RORG-FUNC-TYPE triplet (e.g. F6-02-01 = 2-channel Rocker push-button), enabling a receiver to decode the telegram correctly without any manual configuration.
True
The EEP triplet is the cornerstone of EnOcean interoperability. RORG (1 byte) names the telegram family (F6 = RPS, A5 = 4BS, D2 = VLD, D5 = 1BS). FUNC (1 byte) specifies the functional class within that family (e.g. 02 = Rocker Switch). TYPE (1 byte) is the variant inside the function (e.g. 01 = 2 channels). Once the receiver knows the EEP, it can parse the user-data bytes deterministically and map them to the right cluster of variables. The complete catalogue is published by the EnOcean Alliance at enocean-alliance.org/eep/.
When you add a new sensor, always note the full RORG-FUNC-TYPE on the wiring schedule; an A5-02-05 temperature sensor and an A5-02-30 share the same RORG but report values on a completely different scale.

- Smart Acknowledge (Smart Ack) is the EnOcean protocol for bidirectional communication with battery-less devices: the sensor registers with a Postmaster (a relay) that buffers commands destined for the sensor and delivers them during the brief listening window that follows each of the sensor's own transmissions.5.

- EnOcean is particularly well suited to the retrofit of existing buildings: sensors and buttons can be added without pulling cable or fitting batteries, with a 20+ year service life, making it ideal for heritage buildings or sites that are difficult to rewire.7. KNX integration · Retrofit-Anwendung
