KNX for home and building automation
KNX products for the automation and the control of home, hotel, school and office
Why choose the KNX standard?
KNX is the ideal choice for those who desire a smarter, more efficient building that is ready to evolve. As a global standard compliant with national, European and international regulations, it integrates multiple functions into a single system, optimises energy consumption and comfort, simplifies environment management and ensures the long-term freedom to expand the installation without rigid constraints.
Open and interoperable standard
KNX enables seamless communication between diverse devices and applications, even from different manufacturers, offering greater design freedom and superior technological continuity over time.
Centralised building management
Lighting, roller shutters, climate control, access control and many other functions can be supervised by a single system, either locally or remotely, including through personalised scenarios.
Installation flexibility and scalability
The decentralised KNX architecture allows the system to be expanded or modified without redesigning the entire system, maintaining high performance and adaptability even in complex projects.
Secure communication
For supported devices, the KNX Secure protocol is available to provide enhanced protection for data exchange across the network.
KNX Building Automation
Integrated functions and centralised monitoring for the entire facility
Flexible, interoperable and easy to integrate, a system developed on the KNX standard guarantees comprehensive building management.
Whether in small or large hotels, villas, offices, multi-purpose centres or even gyms, KNX is the solution that provides constant control and management of lights, temperature, security, energy and accesses, with functions and comfort in every single environment, and it can also be integrated with third-party systems.
Choose the style which best suits your project
The Vimar KNX range offers native KNX controls that match their wiring series, with customisable symbols, finishes, engravings and RGB backlighting. This enhances the architectural design through totally matching styling of functions without compromising on system performance.

The value of details
To satisfy every aesthetic requirement. Make your electrical system unique
The Eikon series offers a comprehensive range of solutions to customise your system and strike the perfect balance between style and technology. This includes special finishes, countless colour combinations for both cover plates and push buttons, customised symbols associated with controls and the option to engrave your own logo onto the cover plate.
A single system to govern the entire building
The primary advantage of the KNX system is that it allows for the supervision of all functions and the centralised management of the building: raising and lowering blinds or roller shutters, selecting the climate and managing lighting, controlling access points, viewing images captured by CCTV video cameras and video door entry outdoor stations. Everything can be controlled from a single point, typically a touch screen. All the functions can be controlled and supervised locally or remotely.
Control: centralised supervision of functions
Raising and lowering blinds or roller shutters, selecting the climate and managing lighting, controlling access points, viewing images captured by video cameras or video entryphones. Everything can be controlled from a single point.
- Supervision is performed via devices installed in each room, used to manage the different functions (touch controls, thermostats, etc.), or with supervisors, which manage all the functions in the building from a single control device, selecting the various environments
KNX touch screen supervisor
Much more than mere displays, the KNX 5” touch screens combine a slimline design with state-of-the-art technology, and become a smart control point to manage and control the KNX standard home automation system.
- Available in black and white
- Available with mounting frame for installation in 2-3 module mounting boxes
Comfort: customised scenarios and events for every environment
Environmental conditions can be managed in every environment in the building: dim the lighting to create welcoming relaxation areas, draw the curtains or move the roller shutters (including Venetian blinds and slat orientation) to give the right amount of light for various daytime activities, adjust the brightness of lamps, create interplays of light, all simply by setting the scenario or event parameters.
- Scenario: this is a function that allows the user to “call up” a preferred set of conditions via a single control
- Event: a programme that enables/disables groups and/or scenarios under specific circumstances and/or at selected times, according to logic rules governed by the control unit
KNX Multisensor for Linea XT Platform
The multisensor for Linea XT Platform monitors temperature, humidity and air quality (VOC). Integrated with advanced thermostat and humidistat to manage heating, cooling, and dehumidification, preventing condensation. The LED matrix immediately communicates the environmental status and allows you to call up home automation scenarios for comfort, energy efficiency, and day-to-day well-being.
- Advanced climate control for 2/4-pipe fan-coil systems
- Measures VOCs, calculates the dewpoint, and activates air exchange or the dehumidifier
- LED and proximity sensor for clear feedback
Security: safe solutions for the smart building
The KNX standard allows for the integration of burglar alarm, video surveillance, video door entry and access control systems as well as technical alarms (e.g., gas leaks, smoke, or water leaks) for coordinated and centralised management of building security.
For compatible devices, KNX Secure is available: this technology protects communication between system components by encrypting data on the network, adding an extra layer of reliability and protection to the building automation infrastructure.
- KNX IP Secure is the world’s first vendor-independent security solution for smart buildings
- It is recognised as international standard EN ISO 22510, specifically created to cover open data communication for building automation and management via KNXnet/IP
KNX infrared motion detector
The infrared detector, whenever a presence is detected, sends a message over the KNX bus switching on the signalling LED. The device is also used to manage motion signals coming from an external source or from any other KNX device.
- The dusk/dawn sensor integrated into the detector makes it possible to turn the lights on and off according to the brightness in the environment
