The Product
The latest V3 Software update from Zennio enhances the capabilities of the Z50, Z70, and Z100 touch panels, introducing a suite of advanced functions designed to optimise user interaction and building management.
The touch panels are equipped with 5”, 7”, and 10” backlit touch screens respectively, and support up to 180 control points distributed across multiple pages. They feature inputs for presence detectors, temperature probe or dry contacts and built in temperature probes (Z50 and Z70).
This software update brings significant enhancements such as colour temperature control, an RGB/RGBW colour wheel display, and versatile sliders for controlling dimmers, blinds, and set points. Users can now see installed licenses directly on their panels, manage user configuration backups, and implement set point limits differently for heating and cooling modes.
How does this Product demonstrate the diversity/flexibility of KNX?
Zennio’s touch panels showcase the diversity of KNX by allowing extensive customisation of control points, distributed over 12 pages and integrating with various standard installations worldwide. Their compatibility with the Zennio Remote app, GetFace, and ZenVoice adds layers of functionality tailored to diverse user needs, from residential to commercial settings.
The V3 Software upgrade adds layered functionality that adapts to user needs in real-time. With the ability to control and customise settings such as colour temperature and RGB lighting, the system can cater to both aesthetic preferences and functional requirements.
