Hello [NAME]

After our comprehensive coverage of Light + Building over the past couple of months, it's time to unpick some of the topics raised. We start with an exclusive interview with KNX President, Franz Kammerl, on the direction of the KNX market and its place in the IoT.

Next, on the subject of training, Danny Lawless of Ark M&E discusses the situation concerning electricians in the UK, laments the lack of controls training in the curriculum and suggests how things could be improved. These principles apply equally to many other countries.

Mark Warburton then looks at one of his top L+B picks in more detail, with a product review of the Steinel HPD2 KNX sensor. Mark points out its capabilities and applications, and gives some great practical tips on how to install it.

KNX is all about saving energy, so we round off this month with Simon Buddle's article on why energy metering is so important and how it can help your customers. Simon provides some super advice on metering using KNX, how to set up meters, and how to manage the signals.

We also have plenty of news at the website, plus the resources section which is packed full of useful documents and videos. If you have any projects you would like us to consider for publication, do get in touch, and don't forget to send a picture of you, your smile and the KNX logo for our 'Where is KNX?' gallery!
