KNX in the Home Conference

KNX-Header-1

Automation doesn't have to be difficult. It simply requires a system that avoids the problems of isolated devices. By ensuring that all components communicate in one common language, the kind of device you want to use doesn't matter anymore.

Automating a building has far-reaching benefits for integrators and occupants. With KNX, functions like lighting and AV control, security, energy management, and HVAC can work as a uniform system, which is the essence of interworking and interoperability. The KNX Standard provides a unique platform to integrators to deliver a modular and scalable solution that works in all types of buildings, saves energy, and improves health and well-being.

Integrating KNX and AV Systems

In some cases KNX is used on its own to offer a high level of control over a buildings systems. In other cases it is used in conjunction with other systems, such as an AV system or another BMS. In this 45 minute session we will:

Explore the different ways systems can interface with KNX
Investigate the benefits of each, looking at real world examples of how BMS and AV systems can be connected to KNX
This will be followed by a short Q&A session at the end to answer any key questions you have

Key takeaways:

How different systems integrate with KNX
Benefits of integrating different systems with KNX
Real world examples of specific products or solutions that are used to interface AV and BMS with KNX

Integrating and Controlling HVAC with KNX

This seminar will explore the reasons to use KNX for HVAC control. It will examine how KNX can be flexibly deployed in a wide range of climate control scenarios, from small apartments to large residential and commercial projects. It will also discuss some of the powerful control and integration options that KNX offers, how its decentralised architecture increases its resilience, and how it can be expanded to easily incorporate multiple building functions without complex programming. Whatever the your interest in HVAC control, this presentation will help you realise why KNX should be at the top of your technology choice list.
