Hello,
I have a number of modules scattered around the house (they didn’t have DIN rails three years ago) and there are around:

Someone must have been the first to invest in KNX as well .

Getting back to Nexwell – there was some creative marketing, but now all has gone quiet.

For insulting other users, I’m issuing you with a warning.
Furthermore, my dear friend, the phrase ‘not using’ in your sentence should be written as two separate words

And the NEXO concept – they were assembling the board at the customer’s site, and the programmers started writing the programme once it had been fitted? – You’re talking nonsense; think before you speak.

It’s not the fault of the user “krzysiek_slezany” that he decided to install Nexwell; it’s the fault of the installers/engineers who suggested it to him and then couldn’t get to grips with it.

My mate from town is such a stickler for spelling, yet above he’s written ‘polak’ with a lower-case ‘p’ and, on top of that, ‘nieużywający’. And the post was written on a mobile, where I don’t have Polish characters.

Right, it’s a waste of time getting personal.

You’ve really made me laugh with all this nonsense you’re spouting:-) ))))))))

It’s hard to find a sensible approach to the matter or logical reasoning from someone in whom, apart from jealousy, envy and self-absorption, I can’t find any other qualities.

Please do tell me what system and configuration you have at home!!! You’re completely smitten with EIB – you trust them and consider this solution the best, so your house could probably serve as a show home.

You go on and on about cars – perhaps you could tell us what you drive? I’ve got a Mitsubishi Outlander (as you can see, not a Lamborghini), because I like that sort of car and it meets my needs.

As for choosing the system, the deciding factor wasn’t financial but functional. EIB didn’t (and I don’t think it still does) have the capability to install five touchscreen displays.

You’re quick to criticise others, whether it’s for mistakes in the text or for choosing a particular solution (“it’s your own fault”), and so on. Perhaps you could set an example for us all and write more about your own decisions – for example, what materials you used to build your house, what cars are parked in your driveway,

What sort of remote do you use to open the gate, etc.?

Reading what you’ve written, in my mind’s eye I can picture my neighbour, who has nothing to his name yet criticises everything around him and takes immense pleasure and satisfaction when someone ‘slips up’.

Great!!!

I really like the idea of opening the gate with a flash of light:-) )

Do you need a specific type of light bulb, or can anyone just flash a light and gain access to the property?

As for Nexo, I still think that if they focus more on the system’s functionality and stability

Instead of those beautiful glass frames, EIB will be able to kiss them goodbye:-) )

and here, unfortunately, you’re mistaken, because even if the motherboard is completely switched off, you can still control the lights or the blinds (using the switches), which means that, in theory, you can still manage to get by at home.

A bigger problem arises, for example, with swimming pool water filtration pumps, because in that case you have to go down to the cellar and switch the power supply from the Nexo to a standard socket.

Garden sprinklers are a total disaster, because you have to control them manually or water the garden with a hose – and that’s a big problem:-) )

There’s still no option to control it via the internet or GSM (the SIM card keeps freezing).

As far as I’m concerned, these are things that, with a bit of a ‘kick up the backside’, they could sort out in a month – putting aside their messing about with picture frames and the like for the time being.

Quote:

Reading about Nexo’s capabilities, you get the impression they’ve got it all – and that’s true, because they do have everything – but none of what they have is properly refined.
During the training, when they plug a GSM card into the control panel, it works; a LAN card – that works too; CCTV – likewise; but when you connect everything together and add 200 sensors, several dozen modules for lighting and socket control, roller blinds, light sensors, etc., the system feels so overworked that the only thing it fancies is a NAP!!!

And how do you control all this in EIB if the control unit fails, and with it the LCD display? Do you have switches connected to everything?

I’m talking about what happens when the control unit fails, and with it the displays and remote controls. How is this handled in EIB? Does the sprinkler controller have a built-in watering programme – i.e. a timer, humidity sensor, etc.?
