Selection of KNX RF devices is not a product decision—it is a system design decision. Most long-term KNX RF problems (battery complaints, unreliable behaviour, delayed response, repeated service calls) are not caused by wireless technology itself. They are caused by choosing the wrong RF device for the wrong role. This article is a full technical…
KNX RF window and door sensors may appear simple, but in real projects they play a critical role in comfort, energy efficiency, and system reliability. They influence HVAC logic, security scenes, lighting behaviour, and energy-saving strategies. When designed well, they work silently for years. When designed poorly, they become a frequent source of false triggers…
Introduction KNX RF installations are often blamed when something “randomly” stops working. In reality, most KNX RF issues are predictable, detectable, and preventable—if you know where to look. Unlike wired KNX TP, wireless behaviour exposes design and installation mistakes very quickly. This article is written for system integrators and commissioning engineers. It focuses on real…
Introduction When system integrators talk about wireless reliability, the discussion almost always comes down to frequency. Many wireless automation systems struggle not because of poor devices, but because the chosen frequency band is crowded, unstable, or poorly suited for buildings. KNX RF takes a different approach. Instead of chasing high data rates, it uses a…
Introduction Commissioning is where a KNX RF project either becomes stable and predictable or turns into a long-term service headache. Unlike wired KNX TP, wireless systems demand a bit more planning, correct sequencing, and awareness of RF behaviour during commissioning. This article is written as a practical, on-site guide for system integrators, explaining how to…
Introduction Designing a reliable KNX RF system starts with choosing the right device type for the right job. Many RF issues on site are not caused by the protocol, commissioning, or ETS—but by using the wrong RF device in the wrong place. This article breaks down KNX RF device categories—switches, sensors, actuators, and gateways—explaining how…
