KNX is an international building control standard that is used to put the intelligence into intelligent buildings. It enables the integration and programming of a range of products from a range of manufacturers using a single software tool called ETS4. KNX products are all thoroughly tested for compliance, ensuring they operate seamlessly together on a single KNX cable. The standard has been eagerly adopted by many international manufacturers who together provide a vast array of KNX-certified products. Choosing from this pool of suppliers, integrators and contractors can build entire control solutions by bringing together a variety of off-the-shelf components that are truly interoperable. These products have all been thoroughly tested and certified to be KNX compliant. They all operate seamlessly together and are programmed by the integrator using one common software tool. And because they all ‘speak the same language’, they can operate together across the same network, resulting in much less cabling and higher functionality. By becoming skilled in one standard, you are able to offer your clients a whole spectrum of control solutions exceeding their expectations. The KNX standard can be used across a range of control applications including:
Lighting
HVAC
Security
Audio visual systems
Household appliances
Blinds/solar control
Façade management
Automatic window control
Energy management and control
Metering
Monitoring applications
