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.

Ease of Use

By integrating KNX, we automatically experience a higher energy efficiency and comfort. Furthermore, by the possibility to use further devices, in order to make the usage of the project easier, we can look at further opportunity to even make the whole installation easier in usage.

Applications used

  • Other: Audio Control

Customer's description

Auf der Light&Building in Frankfurt a.M. im Jahr 2008 wurde auf einem Panel des KNX-Standes ein Board von uns gezeigt, dass die Möglichkeiten eines komplexen Multiroom - Audiosystems aufzeigt. Das gesamte Panel basierte, wie bei KNX üblich, auf der Zusammenstellung verschiedener Komponenten von verschiedenen Herstellern. So wurden die KNX-Audio-Aktoren mit ihren eigenen Verstärkern der Firma WHD (Wilhelm Huber - Deisslingen) genommen, diese wurden wiederum mit Sensoren von GIRA bedient. Der damals sehr populäre Smartsensor konnte dabei die Quellenwahl (UKW-Radio, MP3-Player und andere) wählen. Über ein Mikrofon sind Durchsagen im gesamten Gebäude möglich. Als Hintergrundbild des Panels wurde eines unserer Wohngebäude gezeigt, in dem wir über 24 verschiedene Musikzonen mit diesem System im Einsatz hatten.
