Convenient wireless control of building technology – with Gira KNX RF
With Gira KNX RF, the operating comfort of building management systems can be
increased easily in buildings with an existing KNX system. “KNX RF” stands for “KNX
Radio Frequency”, i.e. KNX via wireless signal. With little time or effort and without noise
and dust, new options for controlling lights, blinds, ambiences, etc. can now be installed
in the home by wireless command. In a renovated old building or in a completely new
one, operating stations can be created where no cables can be laid or where no switches
are available. Gira KNX RF uses the universal KNX standard “KNX RF1.R S-Mode”: All
KNX products available on the market can be integrated in the system. Hand-held
transmitters and touch sensors are available for operation.
Access to the entire KNX system via the KNX RF data interface
(USB stick)
The complete KNX system, including the KNX TP products, can
also be put into operation and maintained via wireless signal using
the Gira KNX RF data interface (USB stick). It permits convenient
wireless access to a KNX installation from the PC or laptop – for
addressing, programming or diagnosing via ETS 5 or for operation
with the respective PC tools. Communication between the PC and
the KNX system is established via wireless signal (a Gira KNX RF/
TP media coupler or RF repeater in the system is required for this).
Gira KNX RF touch sensors
The Gira KNX RF touch sensors are battery-operated so that the
operating points can be mounted in any location and easily moved
if necessary. This not only includes mounting on walls made of
stone, concrete or wood. Using an additional mounting plate, the
Gira KNX RF touch sensors can also be easily attached to smooth
and even transparent surfaces like glass doors, window panes or
furniture surfaces.
Gira KNX RF hand-held transmitter
The Gira KNX RF hand-held transmitters permit convenient
operation of the building control from your desk or sofa. Several
lights can also be controlled simultaneously or integrated into
light scenes via the Gira KNX RF operating devices.
Gira KNX RF / TP media coupler or RF repeater
The Gira KNX RF/TP media coupler is used to establish a link
with the KNX TP system (“TP” stands for “Twisted Pair”, i.e.
components that communicate via the green bus cable). This
means that no complex and expensive gateway is required, which
has to be separately programmed with its own software. All
devices can be directly set up via the ETS 5 in the same way as
wired KNX products. If in some cases the wireless signal range is
not sufficient due to difficult architectural conditions, the Gira
KNX RF/TP media coupler can be used in its additional “repeater
mode” to increase the range.
