Hello [NAME]
We start this month with an industry opinion piece. This asks a number of leading lights about their views on how the industry can consolidate KNX’s position as the leading control protocol in the European and Chinese smart home and light commercial markets, and ensure that the standard gains ground worldwide.
As the temperature rises over the northern hemisphere, Mark Warburton of Ivory Egg explains the benefits of using KNX to control both air-conditioning and heating. Mark gives a practical example of retrofitting air-conditioning to an existing KNX system, with useful tips on how to avoid having multiple keypads on display.
Next, Simon Buddle looks at the importance of feedback in KNX systems. Simon argues that giving the customer useful feedback on actual values helps them realise that a fault may be in a setting, rather than a system failure. In addition, feedback for remote monitoring and maintenance purposes can save on wasted call outs.
Finally, we have a fabulous case study by Neil Grant of The Harris Grant Group of Companies on a development in central London comprising seven apartments. The all-KNX infrastructure installed means that the developer can offer near-limitless options for every apartment owner.
Don't forget to check out the latest news, as well as the resources section which is packed full of useful information, and don't forget to send us a picture of you, wherever you may be, with the KNX logo and a smile for our 'Where is KNX?' gallery.
