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.

Applications Used

  • Lighting - Switching, Dimming, Light Scenes, Timed Control, Automatic Occupancy Detection, Constant Light Control, Lighting Colour Control

  • Energy Management/Smart Metering
  • Other
  • Automation and Remote Access - Timed Functions, Logical Functions, System Supervision, Internet Access, Remote Programming
  • Blind and Shutter Control - Individual Control, Group & Central Control, Preset Positioning, Automatic Programs, Wind and Rain Protection, Sun Tracing (interaction with HVAC / lighting)

Customers Description

In object to modernizing the KNX training workstation, we integrated a screen instead of the display lights. We replaced the visualization interface of the states of the actuators which are already assosiated with lamps and LEDs by a screen connected to a Raspberry card in order to obtain a richer interface in terms of number of outputs of the actuators also viewable through a smartphone of the participants and at the end have a Less bulky workstation in terms of  components size and more modern.
