THE ALL-ROUND PARTNER FOR HOME AND BUILDING AUTOMATION WITH KNX

KNX news

There are 2 big changes:
ABOUT XXTER
For the xxter app they have launched the complete new visualisation where the enduser is in control of the appearance of the app. Simply go to settings -> Preferences and choose your style.
If you don’t have an xxter device you can download the app and start with a Demo here


ABOUT PAIROT
Now we can import the KNXproj file and choose 3 methods to import.

Option 1 - Manually
Obviously

Option 2 - Functions
This option requires ETS 5.6 of higher. Since that version, you can add functions to the building structure. This requires a little different way of programming, but allows new features, and easy conversion to for example a Pairot project. These functions and some other datapoint types will automatically be detected and added to the Pairot project, as well as the building structure. This feature will become available for xxter projects later this year as well!
More information how this works in ETS can be found here

Option 3 - Middle groups
When using different middle groups for different “functions” in ETS, for example 1/1 for switching light, 1/2 for relative dimming etc, you can add blinds and lights easily to the Pairot project as well.

Most KNXproj can more easily be converted to a Pairotproject using one of these options, which results in less programming time during setup!
The new functions can be selected after you uploaded the KNXproj file.
