KNX Association Newsletter - October 2018

Learning and education never stops, and when it comes to security it cannot be important and comprehensive enough. But where to find all information and how do I know that the information is also applicable to me and not to somebody else? The answer to this could not be easier: The KNX Secure Roadshow bundles all answers and transmits it to you via events all over the world, but also via KNX Secure Webinars.

Although the KNX Secure Roadshow is the current highlight, this newsletter also contains information you should not miss. Especially the various releases by KNX, such as international and national KNX Journals, Press Releases, presentations and videos shine on KNX. And after you had a look at all releases, finish your KNX Journal with a look at our new KNX website, which addresses all profiles, the KNX Project Platform, new ETS Apps and of course the special offer for all ETS products in October.

New ETS Apps

KNX/DALI Gateway Data Import by Siemens AG
Parameterise the KNX/DALI gateways from Siemens in ETS quickly via the new ETS App DALI Data Import with the help of an Excel or CSV file. The new App provides sample files which help to configure the parameters such as the Group Addresses and to create DALI groups and ballasts with their name as well as luminaire type. Once the Excel or CSV file is imported in ETS, the Group Addresses will be created in ETS and automatically linked to the Group Objects. This helps saving time significantly when configuring the KNX/DALI gateways.
