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

My students have connected the Siemens Process Control (PCS7), the Home and Building Automation (KNX) and Cisco Network (CCNA) labs, with the PSTN through our separate installated IP and GSM call center. The students elaborated the connections, programmed the devices and commissioned the complete system. The outcome of the project is a practical educational lab system in which the KNX plays the central role and it also provides the interaction, cooperation and supervision of the other systems (PLC, Profibus, DALI,Ethernet,WIFI,Telefon). It was a useful and interesting practice for students.
