KNX Panel Board Integration

A smart building is only smart if one system can see all of it. This build puts lighting, climate and access on a single KNX backbone, terminated in one panel board, and speaks BACnet and EIB so it fits into whatever the building already runs.

The detail

What the job actually involved.

What it controls

  • Lighting circuits, scenes and schedules across the floors
  • HVAC set points and zones, tied to occupancy rather than habit
  • Access and door control from the same backbone
  • Shading, where the facade calls for it

The panel board

  • KNX actuators and power supplies terminated in one board
  • Bus topology laid out so a floor can be isolated for work
  • Labelled, tested and documented circuit by circuit
  • Room to extend, because buildings change after handover

Integration

  • KNX and EIB devices on the same bus
  • BACnet interface into the building management system
  • Custom logic where the standard function blocks stop short
  • Handover with the addressing and the programme documented
