New house planning

[loucasz]

Hello all,

I am planning my house set up

Actuators:

1 * AKS-2416.03
1 * AKS-2016.03
1 * JAL-0810.02
2 * BE-08000.02
2 * SCN-P360E3.03

Switches:

3 * BE-GT20W.01
2 * BE-GTL4TW.01
2 * BE-GTL2TW.C1

Visualization:
Loxone server gen 1


So far I have configured the devices in the ETS and have set up the wall switches to turn on/off the lights.

Now is time to configure the loxone server and I am really stuck.

I have viewed the below tutorial

https://loxwiki.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/LOX/pages/1520763115/MDT+Glastaster+in+Loxone+einbinden

Do I have to change the whole concept for the switches? I have to set up a new address group for every parameter in the switch and when a button is pressed on the switch send it to loxone and the loxone to the AKS actuator?

Any help is welcome

Thanks.

This would be the better way, I think.
You can let it as it is. But then you have to use the EIB switch in Loxone Config. There you can connect a feedback from the devices, so loxone recognizes when you switch the light via the wall switch.
You can't use the light controller for example with this setting. So I would recommend to set it up the other way, that everything is switched via loxone. The disadvantage is of course, that if the miniserver does not work, no light would be available....

Thanks for your answer,

With "light controller" do you mean the below?

So if I want to use the SCN-P360E3.03 (presence detector) to turn on a specific light, I have to program everything to goes to Loxone and after to KNX?

The one presence will be in the guest toilet, and there is no button to turn on/off the light. Only the presence sensor.

The other presence sensor will be in the garage and the specific light will be programmed to turn on/off from the wall switch and from the presence detector.

I hope your planning goes well and your house setup turns out great. As for configuring your Loxone server, it's understandable to feel stuck. Have you tried reaching out to Loxone's customer support? They can guide you or point you in the right direction. You could also check out online forums or groups discussing home automation and Loxone specifically. Best of luck to you in your project!

Speaking of puzzles, configuring tech stuff like a Loxone server can be a real head-scratcher.Thanks a bunch for the good vibes and well wishes for the house setup. It's all a bit of a puzzle, right?

I understand the struggle. I also had to refer to tutorials and seek help from forums. It can be complex, especially when dealing with specific devices like the MDT Glastaster. Sometimes, you might need to adjust the concept for the switches and create new address groups for different parameters.In my experience, reaching out to the Loxone community or support can be really helpful. They often have insights and tips that can make the process smoother. Keep at it, and don't hesitate to ask for help when you need it. You're on the right track, and soon everything will be up and running just the way you want it. Also, if you're still hunting for info, you might find some useful insights from cash house buyers.
