The IBOX-KNX-ENO-A1, a bidirectional gateway from IntesisBoxTM, enables the connection between KNX and EnOcean protocols. This enables a seamless integration of sensors, actuators and bidirectional EnOcean devices into KNX systems.

Intesis Seamless integration – The bidirectional KNX to EnOcean Gateway

In the area of building automation, sensors provide large amounts of data from various devices such as rockers, window contacts and thermostats. The IBOX-KNX-ENO-A1 gateway is used to update the collected data in the status communication objects of the gateway and send it to the configured group address. This information can also be called up as required.

Furthermore, KNX devices, such as room controllers, or systems can be used to control self-powered wireless EnOcean actuators. When the control communication objects receive the new data, the EnOcean telegram is sent over the air addressed to the previously learned device and the action is performed accordingly. Bidirectional devices both transmit and receive EnOcean telegrams. This allows the easy integration of these devices into the KNX system as if they were native products.
