KNX driver for Crestron Home

Our driver enables seamless interconnection and integration of devices operating under the "KNX" standard with Crestron Home processors, allowing for comprehensive control and data synchronization between the two different platforms.

Currently, the supported devices and configurable activities via the driver are as follows:

• Lighting
  • On/Off Lights
  • Dimmable Lights
  • RGBW Lights
• Shading/Doors
  • Roller Shutters
  • Shutters/External Blinds
  • Venetian Blinds (with and without adjustable slats)
  • Doors/Garage Doors
• HVAC
  • Thermostat
  • Thermostat (Setpoint Shift)
  • Dehumidifier
  • Fan Coil Management (3 or 5 speeds and Auto)
  • Underfloor Heating
• Recap Screens
  • Ability to group Curtains and Blinds for unified control and easy overview
  • Ability to group Thermostats for unified control and easy overview
• Other
  • Brightness Sensor
  • Occupancy/Presence Sensor
  • Contact Sensor
  • Temperature Sensor
  • Humidity Sensor
  • Switch
  • Push Button
  • KNX Telegram Dispatch
  • Power/Energy Metering Device (Wh/kWh/kW)
  • Generic Device (allows the display of any value on the KNX bus, generally any magnitude detected by a sensor)

The driver allows for easy peripheral configuration starting from the KNX project, using a graphical interface that assists the integrator in mapping Group Addresses to various Crestron entities. Furthermore, bulk insertion of identical device types is supported to speed up configuration tasks. It is also possible to save the configuration and resume it later—for example, to perform pre-configuration in the lab and quickly restore it during on-site commissioning.

Different Versions and Licensing

The driver is available in different versions based solely on the number of controllable devices—specifically the total count of lights, thermostats, and shading solutions (shutters/venetian blinds/roller shutters).

Each license is tied to a specific Crestron Home processor; during the ordering phase, the MAC address of the processor's network interface must be provided. In the case of a license pack purchase, it is not necessary to provide individual MAC addresses upfront; instead, a license key can be requested by providing the MAC address when needed.

Should there be a need to increase the number of devices on an already licensed installation, an Upgrade Package is available for purchase.
