On the KNX Devices page, you’ll find the online catalog. From here you can download devices and functions to use in your project.
You can also add your own devices and functions by clicking on +Add Manually (upper left corner).
Favourite your most used devices and functions, by clicking “Edit” and checking the box “Add to favourite list”. You can then filter for only favourites in the menus on the Drawing Board.
On the top off the page, you’ll find two buttons named “Online Catalog” and “Local”. If you toggle to the local catalog, by clicking “Local”, you will see only the devices and functions that you have downloaded or created yourself.
You can browse devices in the online catalog. When you find a device you like, click “download”.
You can edit downloaded devices to change or add more information.
When you download a device, remember to also connect it to a GA set in the Group Address tab. You can connect a device to one GA set per GA profile. Learn more about GA Sets and how they are used to automate group address structures here.
The process of creating a function is very similar to creating a device.
Start by clicking on “Add Manually”. Then for device type, choose “Type Function”; and for the manufacturer, choose “**functions**”. For menu, choose which category the function controls.
In the item description, write a short description on what the function does. You can add a more detailed description in the function description. To the right is an example of what a function can look like.
