KNX improves its ETS programming tool

KNX

The KNX ETS (Engineering Tool Software) programming tool supports KNX installations and has been completely redesigned. It has many new functions, and the Beta version was present at the 2010 Light+Building Exhibition in Frankfurt. The new version makes it possible to implement KNX projects more easily and has a standardised open interface to enable data to be exchanged and integrated with other applications.

ETS 4 has a clearly structured and intuitive user interface, with the presentation on menus clearly improved. A wizard permits step-by-step design. Improvement of workflow is achieved through drag and drop, error checks and help functions.

The official launch is scheduled for October 2010.
