Workshop Case KNX Starter

The KNX starter case teaches you the basics of the KNX and Gira One bus structure for building system technology. The case is suitable for basic training in education and further training and imparts practical knowledge on project planning and programming simple functions such as switching, dimming, and blind control. Programming can be carried out either with ETS (KNX) or the free Gira Project Assistant (GPA) for Gira One. An additional license is required for ETS.An ETS license is required for programming.

The Gira Project Assistant is available free of charge.
