Why using just this gateway to communicate with KNX /
EIB?
iPhone, iPad and Philips Pronto are
wireless control systems. They are not always "online" to
listen, what is happening on the bus.
One possibility to know immediately about
the actual states on the bus is to use a server for your house.
However this device consumes energy (as it runs 24h/24h), it is
susceptible and it's life time is a lot shorter than your home.
The more simple and cost effective way
offers our ProKNX gateway. It is not just an IP gateway that transfers
events, but it also provides Communication Objects that are assigned to
group addresses (as any other KNX device). These objects are always
showing the actual state of all of your equipments (lights, shutters,
temperature controller, weather stations...). Once your wireless device
connects, it shows immediately the correct states and values.
