What is KNX visualization?
KNX visualization is the graphical layer that sits on top of a KNX installation. Instead of reasoning in group addresses, the user sees rooms, devices and systems and operates them from a touch panel, a phone or a browser. Ilevia adds supervision on top of that: logic, scheduling, energy data and third-party systems in the same interface.
Do I still need ETS?
Yes. ETS stays the tool that programs the devices on the KNX bus. Ilevia Manager reads the project and builds the visualization above it, so the two are complementary rather than alternatives. With the Cloud Extras module you can also run ETS programming remotely through a secure VPN gateway.
Does it work without an internet connection?
Yes. The server runs on site and the app connects to it directly over the local network, choosing the fastest path automatically. The cloud is used only when you are away from the building; remote video streaming for intercoms and cameras requires the Cloud Extras module.
Which devices can run the interface?
The same visualization runs on Ilevia touch panels, on iOS and Android phones and tablets, and on a desktop browser. The apps are free on both stores. See the
touch panels or open the web demo.
Can the interface be customised per project?
Yes. Floor plans or scrolling object lists, custom icon sets, backgrounds, fonts, themes, column count and widget transparency are all configurable, and each user can switch the interface language independently.
