ETS

KNX is a core Home Assistant integration that only recently reached the silver quality rating. This means that it is well-maintained and stable. Just what you’re looking for when you’re thinking about extending your home’s functionality.

If you’re controlling a group of lights from multiple different types of switches, you’ll run into the problem that a switch needs to be pressed twice - the first tap doesn’t have any effect. This happens because state is not maintained properly; the switches don’t “know” whether the lights are currently turned on or off. This article shows how to fix that.

This article shows how to check your KNX installation’s topology with the tools provided by ETS. You can run through all the verifications from your desk without having to deal with the physical wiring.

The ISE Smart Connect KNX Hue is a nifty little device that bridges the gap between the KNX and Hue universes. But why bring wireless Hue lights into the mix if you already have lights controlled via wired KNX/DALI? The answer is simple: even in the most well-planned house there are situations where you want to place lights in positions where only a plain socket without KNX or DALI control is available. In such cases, wirelessly controlled Hue bulbs are a flexible solution. However, you still want to be able to control all your lights - KNX, DALI, and Hue - from one place: your KNX room controllers. The ISE Smart Connect KNX Hue enables just that.
