FAQ
Bus system
What is a bus system?
A bus system is a component of building automation. Intelligent networking requires a special cable that connects actuators and sensors. The intelligence lies in pushbutton sensors or central control units, for example. These devices replace conventional switches and send control commands to lights, blinds, music systems or other devices that can communicate with each other via the bus system.

Smart home describes the ability to automate and remotely control the electrical installations within a building so that the full range of building features (lights, blinds, ventilation and heating) can be controlled in line with previously programmed scenarios. Further benefits of a networked building include increased security and energy efficiency in your home.
Building technology includes all technical devices and systems within a building, such as lighting, blind or heating control. These can be networked via a bus or wireless system and make a fundamental contribution to building control, comfort, security and cost effectiveness.
Pushbutton sensors can control a range of intelligent building-technology functions, e.g. switching on and dimming lights, raising and lowering blinds, saving and calling up light scenes, and controlling heating. Operation of these sensors can be customised to user needs, allowing flexibility in terms of button function assignment.
Actuators in building technology are devices that convert electrical signals into mechanical movements (e.g. lowering a blind). In this way, sensors can be sources of information.
Light scenes are previously programmed scenarios that switch on a corresponding light mood as required – at the touch of a button. For example, you could set a “TV night” setting to switch off all the lights or dim them to a set value without having to adjust each light individually.
