In general there are 4 main types of cable that are used for a Loxone system:įor the sensor side, which is low voltage we recommend you use CAT7 cable. We therefore recommend that you use cables that have stood the test of time and have become industry standards. The wiring is the backbone of an automation system and whilst it is easy to replace a motion sensor, a switch or a light fitting it is much harder to replace the cables that are plastered into your walls. It is therefore important to think ahead and future proof your installation. No one knows where this journey is taking us and there will be lots of new switches, sensors, light-fittings and much more to come. Whilst nature has perfected its signalling system over thousands of years, home automation has only been around for a few decades. Some fire detector outside loxone have the possibility to deactivate detection on the device for a period of time.The wiring in your home can be compared to the nervous system in a human body, without it the automation system can neither sense nor act. => Yesno! You can't deactivate the smoke detection of an idividual smoke detector, but you can deactivate the alarming (extern sirene. It's better to discuss about your favorite beer also an endless discussion but more funny About 'Toxic radiation' you can discuss a long time and you will never come to an end. So i would say wireless is boon and bane.

To many interfaces and reasons why the gas alert is not working. connection of a safety related device (Gas sensor. Wifi-Relay-boards for opening the main door - when wlan is off you are not able to access the house and you need the your key - when you can find some )Īlso not recommendable. retrofitting, when there is no way for an additional cable), sometimes it is not 'secure' (e.g. Hue, LAN I/O Cards, Raspberry-Pi ('Loxberry'), Shelly, Sonoff ('Tasmota').

as you mentioned or loxone-external devices. Either loxone components via Air, multiextension air. Is it possible to deactivate the loxone smoke detector for a certain period?.

Which items will I need and what's the best way to connect the new components from the miniserver located in my house? Additional relays/circuits to control garden lights.Loxone weather station or at least a simpel temperature sensor (to control Valve actuators in my house) one-wire temperature sensor?.additional requirement: I prefer to avoid wireless products if I can.

3 programmable relay outlets/circuits (one is outdoor) - perhaps also an additional relay to power two 2kW or 3kW heaters.

3-6 separate light circuits (5 groups of light).

sensors garage door (open/close) and programmable warning if open under certain conditions.

Two cat6 cables are already in place I don't have Loxone tree wire The garage is about 30 meters away from my house connected with empty conduits near both electrical/loxone cabinets. My garage is almost finished and it's time to put in the wiring. Miniserver, Tree extension, air base extension, relay extensions, Dimming extension, Alarm, etc. I already have a Loxone setup in my house: Hi all - would appreciate your thoughts and guidance on my new project.
