NB the solution is it cheap but if you plan on fine tuning your heating using weather prediction, real outside temps or smart meter variable rates then you stand to make the money back in the long term. The tricky part is learning ETS to configure it correctly and understanding your boiler manual. Scan for the actuators and sensors in Loxone and wire up to your config. NB Loxone miniserver acts as the KNX bridge.Ĩ. The data type is set at 9.027 Temperature Sensor, Fahrenheit for each room. In ETS 5, I have configured the four capacitance sensors with individual addresses and the temperature sensor. It doesn't appear that the KNX switches are properly configured in ETS5.
#LOXONE EIB TASTER MANUAL#
Using the manual for Vitogate figure out which mappings you want to translate to and from the boiler, map in ETS and upload with the vitogate in program mode. In Loxone, I have created an EIB sensor for each temperature KNX device.

Download the device profiles from viessmann for ETSħ. Once hooked up fire up ETS5 (free download for small number of devices)Ħ. The Lon cable needs termination at both ends with a resistor again available online.ĥ. Fr ein einzelnen Sensor reicht aber die gratis/kostengnstige Probeversion vollkommen. Zum Einbinden des Tasters brauchst du ETS. Ohne Energie luft auf dem KNX Bus nichts und der Miniserver stellt diese Energie nicht bereit. The boiler should come with a tech manual or you can find it online.Ĥ. Um den mit Loxone zu nutzen, brauchst du den Taster, etwas KNX Buskabel und eine KNX Spannungsversorgung mit Drossel.

A viessmann boiler with compatible control unitĤ. The main idea was to get more information out of the boiler such as the outside temp and boiler circuit temps and hopefully gain fine control over the heating actuators within the boiler.ġ. I noticed that you can get a vitogate 200 to allow the boiler to communicate with the EIB/KNX interface on loon's mini server and decided to give it a try.

I recently renovated my house and had a viessmann 222f weather comp boiler fitted.
