One of the most powerful features of realKNX is the easy-to-use visual programming tool Node-RED. Node-RED is used for building automation tasks, simply by -wiring together- code blocks. It is important to note that Node-RED runs on system, i.e. it is not a cloud service. Programming Node-RED does not require any programming skills. We offer an access to an extensive code library to copy paste and modify as needed. The library modules demonstrates basic function blocks, like AND/OR and SMS & Push notifications to full featured Alarm system with unique features like barking dogs over SONOS speakers. All this is included in the product, at no extra costs!

However it is also highly customizable, it can present widgets like Spotify player, web cam and calendars etc. The Dashboard is compatible with most modern web browser and operating systems.

The Dashboard and the free iOS and Android Apps iKnix and iKnix2 can be securely used from anywhere on the internet, without configuration or additional costs for fixed public IP, DynDNS, VPN or port forwarding.

Last but not least realKNX allows data logging with graphical presentation and scheduling. It possible to control up to 5 Sonos zones.
