Recently, I undertook a practical project using Hager and Mean Well equipment to convert a conventional LED lighting panel into a variable lighting solution. This conversion was driven by the need to adjust light intensity at night, as the client found the light excessively bright. In this article, I will describe all the steps of the project, detail the connections made, and configure the Hager domovea server, as well as provide technical specifications for the equipment used.
Home automation has become an integral part of modern homes and offices, providing comfort, efficiency, and control in various functions. In this domain, home automation buttons play a crucial role in communication between users and intelligent systems. Today, I will talk about Zennio's home automation buttons, specifically the ZVTI series models, which range from 1 to 6 buttons.
Building automation is an ever-evolving field, with KNX standing out as the most widely adopted global standard for the control and management of electrical installations. Within this system, KNX couplers play a crucial role in ensuring efficient communication between various devices on the network. This article provides a detailed overview of what KNX couplers are, the different types available, their specific functionalities, and the importance of power supplies in ensuring the proper functioning of the system.
Building automation is constantly evolving, and the KNX protocol is one of the pillars of this transformation, being widely used for controlling and monitoring devices in smart homes and buildings. An essential component of the KNX system is the power supply, which not only provides energy but also enables communication between the devices connected to the bus. In this article, I will explain in detail how a KNX power supply works, highlighting its features and the importance of the signal generator and galvanic isolation.
The BCU (Bus Coupling Unit) is one of the most critical components in the KNX system, an international standard for smart home and building control. In this article, I will explain in detail what the BCU is, how it works, its variations, and its importance in the KNX ecosystem.
Recently, I installed an audio streaming device, the Stream IT 2, to inject audio into a hotel amplifier. Although I had never installed an audio streamer before, I must admit it was incredibly simple to install and configure.
Today, I will show you how to configure a Dahua video doorbell system, the IP Villa Door Station DHI-VTO2201F-P with two IP Indoor Monitors DHI-VTH2421FW-P. The system is simple to install, but the configuration requires a bit more effort. This system is an IP system, so communication is carried out through an Ethernet network and powered via ...
