Weather stations
Third party weather stations can be integrated via KNX S-Mode or through an Analog Input. The following table provides a description of third party devices along with links to the related documentation.
Depending on the building complexity and local requirements, a variety of weather stations is available on the market. You have two options when choosing a sensor:
- Single-purpose sensor: a dedicated sensor.
- Multi-purpose sensor: a full-function, combination sensor.
Wind sensors
Special focus should be given to wind sensors. These are highly product safety relevant: any mismeasurement or sensor inaccuracy can damage hundreds of blinds actuators. Therefore, we recommend using equivalent sensors that achieve high qualitative requirements in terms of performance, measuring precision, and reliability for Total Room Automation. You can either place one central wind sensor by mast mounting (for example integrated in a multi-purpose Clima sensor) or you can place sensors on each facade. In case of critical environmental impacts, such as different wind situations, additional wind sensors should be placed around the facade.
