KNX Controlled Home Automation Training System

FEATURES
This system includes different KNX components such as Power Supply module, USB module, line coupler module, push button with multifunction module (4 fold and 2 fold), output actuator module (4 fold with current detection), dimming actuator module (2 fold), shutter actuator module (4 fold), and various loads like lamp and curtain.

ETS software is provided for configuration and programming of different KNX devices. The system is user-friendly, self-explanatory, and allows practice of troubleshooting skills. Experiments are configurable through a patch board. Enhanced electrical safety considerations are included, and caster wheels with locking mechanisms make the workbench easily movable. An MCB is provided with AC supply for safety purposes.
