As the world inexorably moves to renewable energy sources, some competing technologies bombard home and building owners with different solutions to move from fossil fuels. But whenever you add applications to homes and buildings, you add complexity. Complexity in the home or building is best designed, configured, managed and maintained by competent professionals. That means KNX is the better solution, with building blocks proven through the years. This presentation will show why the approach often suggested by competing technologies is usually not the right choice.

Our goal: to inspire you to revolutionize your projects and elevate your automation game.

As the world of “building control” and the internet gradually merge, today’s borders between the two will disappear. KNX IoT addresses just that: new KNX devices with internet-based protocol suites and security accelerate product development, add new external access capabilities to KNX installations via rest-based 3rd party APIs (as well a semantical description of created KNX installations to document their functionality in a web-oriented language). It's a new world and an expanding KNX ecosystem: and this session explains how to get started and where to access more resources to succeed.

KNX Virtual (KV) is an application simulating a KNX installation. It is focusing on two main aspects – system features and bus functions. We're innovating by separating them into two editions. The KV-Functions Edition will dive into everyday tasks like switching, dimming, controlling shutters, blinds, HVAC, and alarms. All these tasks will be streamlined into a single line for efficiency. On the other hand, the KV-System Edition will explore system aspects like couplers, secure devices, and security measures for data and IP. This edition will also support switching tasks and the upcoming KNX IoT protocol extension. Join us to better understand these aspects and how they work together in the world of KNX!

While Wi-Fi 6 at 9.6Gbps is almost 3X faster than current wifi, this is less of a one-time speed increase and more of a future-facing upgrade. This session covers WiFi 6 from Aruba Instant On networking solution, purpose-built for smart automation. It’s easy to set up in minutes and manage from your smart phone. The network supports latency-sensitive data (like voice and video), offering improved performance with built-in Firewall security. Learn about multiple site management, Smart Mesh, scaling 50 devices per site , how to discover all IP devices including automation IP gateways, and end points.

KNX IoT is a is a new addition to the suite of KNX protocols, using Internet protocol v6 (IPv6) as the transport.

Cascoda has developed a comprehensive development kit for KNX IoT & in this presentation we introduce ChiliCuisine™.

ChiliCuisine™ is a low code technology, that generates KNX IoT code from KNX datapoints & parameters to connect peripherals to KNX IoT infrastructure.

This has the following benefits:

• Increase code & documentation quality

• Reduced development time:

 - KNX data points & parameters translate to working products

 - Generated executable & MT files to work with ETS

• Write only the meaningful things:

 - Reduced complexity, concentrate on the task

 - Reduced manual labour: less coding

In this presentation, eelectron will showcase their state-of-the-art KNX secure products and solutions, shedding light on the latest developments in KNX secure. With a focus on the Bridge, a power supply with IP interface, logic blocks and the “OnLine-OffLine" control logic. The device is capable of interoperating with other secure protocols such as MQTTs Eelectron will dive into the benefits of the interoperability between protocols in a KNX project while keeping everything Secure.

KNX Secure becomes more and more important, especially when using KNX RF segments. More and more often an existing KNX topology must be expanded with an RF line. In some cases, you may need to use the new segment coupling technology, as well as segment isolation and Secure Proxy based on the new ETS 6 version. Theben can show you how to migrate non-secure actuators (already a few years old) to secure devices. Explore KNX RF with segment coupling and also learn about the full range of KNX devices from Theben.
