Overview
KNX Utility Generic Monitor enables Control4 to access KNX data. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the Control4 KNX Routing Gateway.
One instance of this driver is to be used for monitoring a datatype (e.g. gas usage, CO2 concentration, water consumption etc)
Each instance of the driver supports Current Value and Total Consumption fields. These should be configured in driver properties according to the type of data monitored.
For example
- Gas usage - this would use both Total Consumption and Current Value (instantaneous usage)
- CO2 concentration - this would only use Current Value (Total Consumption is irrelevant)
While you can view instantaneous usage and the total consumption you have used so far in the driver’s properties, this driver is ultimately designed to be used alongside BMS Monitor - a unique driver for monitoring thermostat and consumption data, providing a simple web interface for viewing this historic data.
And best of all, KNX Utility Monitor is completely FREE!
Support
If you want to monitor a new KNX datapoint that is not currently supported, please contact us, and we will be happy to look into adding support for the new functionality.
