Detailed Description

Energy Efficiency

The usage of automated functions already save energy in every installation. Especially the usage of KNX has a lot of potential for further energy savings, which can contribute to a better environmental footprint. Be extending KNX to more functions and applications, energy savings of up to 60% can be realised. Thanks to the flexibility of KNX, these functions can easily be implemented in this installation

Innovation

Smart homes and buildings are always an upgrade in comparison to a conventional installation. Not only automated functions and a higher level of comfort contribute to a higher living standard, but also the possibility to be ready for coming innovations. Thanks to the usage of KNX, the door has been opened to integrate new innovative solutions, using the worldwide STANDARD for home and building control.

Customers Description

Ein bestehendes KNX-System aus dem Jahre 2013 wurde aktualisiert. Anlass hierzu waren mehrere Gründe: einige Schalter-LEDs sind ausgefallen und die Schalter mussten erneuert werden; einige Schalter-Programmierungen waren irreführend und auch nicht richtig beschriftet; ein Aktuator hat zeitweise Ausfallserscheinungen und der KNX-Router für LAN hatte nur einen "Zugriff". Ziel war es nun, die ausgefallenen oder defekten Geräte zu ersätzen, die Tastenbelegungen in allen Räumen zu aktualisieren und den KNX-Router auszutauschen. Die Erfahrung war hier, dass ein 11 Jahre altes "Smart-Home-System" einfach (!!!) aktualisiert werden kann. Wow. Das ist nicht zu erwarten.
