Controlling and visualising intelligent building technology
The Gira Home Server or the Gira Facility Server is the on-board computer for the intelligent
building. It allows the full range of private and commercial building technology components
that are interconnected via KNX to be controlled and visualised across systems. As a result,
you can integrate additional technologies such as door intercoms, cameras and audio systems
into the building control system. The building technology is operated via the Gira G1,
smartphone, tablets or PC.* Regardless of your location, almost all control functions are
available and can be monitored at any time.
Central control of intelligent home technology, at home
or while away
The Gira Home Server lets users control the entire building technology
centrally with various control devices such as wall PCs, smartphones,
tablets or computers, at home or while away. Not only is this a useful
extension to traditional KNX control devices, it also means that the
entire building control system can be monitored at all times.
Diverse application options for more convenience, security and
energy efficiency
The Gira Interface for building control and visualisation can be precisely
matched to the individual wishes and needs of residents. A wide range
of application options is available: the central control of lighting, blinds
and heating, room scenes, multimedia entertainment in all rooms,
panic switches, presence simulation, alarms, requirements-based energy
management, floor plan visualisation, consumption data analyses,
colour control, switching between night and day mode (dark and light
interface design), message transmission via email, push notification,
and much more.
Simple operation of innovative functions – at the touch of a finger
With the Gira Interface, the user interface of the Gira Home Server,
controlling innovative building technology is child’s play. The menu is
easy to navigate and all functions can be reached within two levels.
Additional detailed information and operating elements open in a pop-
up window. This guarantees a perfect overview and enables convenient
operation via touchscreen – with just one finger.
Gira G1 as a Home Server Client
In systems with a Gira Home Server, the Gira G1 can also be
used as a Client. The Gira G1 represents the interface design of
the Gira Home Server. Almost all functions available in the
standard scope of delivery of the Gira Home Server are supported.

Gira IoT services
The Gira HomeServer and Gira S1 offer a host of options from the
networked world. Many functions that have been parametrised in the
Gira HomeServer are available with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa
and IFTTT, for example. Lights and blinds listen to your every word.
Scenes can be called up by voice. Various applications can be connected
with simple If-Then functions – even if they are from different
manufacturers.
Sophisticated solutions for intelligent building technology
The Gira Interface for building control and visualisation can be precisely matched to the
individual wishes and needs of residents. As a result, a wide range of applications can
be realised, such as floor plan visualisations in QuadClient for intuitive and fast operation.
Logic nodes or extending Gira's IoT services are an example of how intelligent networking
can be used to increase convenience and security.
Fast operation with floor plan visualisation
Quick, intuitive navigation through the building. A touch on a room in
the floor plan opens the QuadClient’s room view. This enables extremely
fast navigation through the building. The status of the building – for
example, whether all the doors or windows are closed or whether the
lights are on – can also be seen at a glance.
Logic online test
The logic online test allows complex circuits to be tested very quickly
and undesired statuses to be identified. This saves a lot of time during
troubleshooting! The statuses can be changed directly in the logic sheet
on the desired logic nodes. This change triggers a telegram on the
KNX bus, for example, and can be fully tested while the process is
running. The logic online test allows you to test logics live on the KNX bus.
