Could you send me more information and helpful materials so I could use them when writing my paper? Daily we receive a few letters that include this question… We, however, cannot send out materials to each person individually. That is why the sites www.smartech.pl and www.eib.pl are full of articles. If you have found them interesting, and you would like to include the information found in them to your non-commercial
Dear readers, the cabling you usually install nowadays generally serves as energy supply for traditional appliances. They work independently and separately from each other. This does not always meet the growing demands of contemporary users. They ask more and more often about ways to control many appliances together from different parts of a given building. Quickly developing technology offers new uses and solutions. Modern systems allow for appliance integration. This
Dear readers, The buildings you create surely have good architectural designs, an interesting arrangement and care for well-being of the future users, are they, however, as useful on a day-to-day basis when everything changes rapidly, or on special occasions? do they have low maintenance costs and provide safety of the owners and inhabitants? do the interiors look as attractive after dark? If you are not sure – please consider the

Below you will find photos of external appliances visible throughout the building (control consoles, panels, sensors), as well as descriptions of interesting additional uses or features. The equipment is hidden in control cabinets. One console may control many different appliances or groups of appliances. A smaller number of such devices means aesthetics in a large room. The equipment is available in various colour options. Here are examples of consoles, remote
System KNX Instabus The KNX (Konnex) (old name – EIB – European Installation Bus) is a system existing since 1990, devised cooperatively by leading European home appliance and equipment manufacturers. It is a completely new system for connection, control, signalling and administration of electronics. Currently, over 100 companies manufacture products that comprise the KNX palette. In Poland, SMARTech, among others, implements this system. It means, for the user, availability of

Remote control and remote system updates All electric equipment can be controlled locally from the room the equipment is in, as well as remotely. The user can control every element separately or merge them into groups, from any place in the building or remotely via the phone or Internet. Via the phone (or text messages) one can monitor and control the system functions from any place. One can e. g.
The vision of future houses equipped with programmable cookers, washing machines, refrigerators and dishwashers that can be controlled from any place and at any time, is being turned into reality by the SMARTech system. Bosch and Siemens manufacture home appliances compatible with the KNX bus. This is state-of-the-art, modern equipment. These appliances can i. e. contact the service by themselves when they register a malfunction. Electric cookers. Thanks to the
Audio/Video control Integration with the multiroom systemThe SMARTech system allows for integration with the home audio/video system and the multiroom system (multiroom amplification). The reason is comfort of the inhabitants, who can independently listen to their favourite music in their rooms, all coming from one set. This allows for full flexibility when choosing a sound source in any room, as well as elegance – only loudspeakers (e. g. hidden in
An intelligent building is not only a control system, but also an appropriate way of designing the 'media’ cabling – the TV, telephone and data cabling. The integration of all logical networks in the house raises its value and comfort, combines luxury and security, enabling you to utilise better appliances such as the phone the TV, computers and cameras. All installations take the form of a star with the lines
The SMARTech intelligent system allows much more efficient use of roller blind, jalousie, window, garage door and gate control. Central and remote control, as well as the possibility of pre-programming the system, provide comfort and safety. When everyone has left the house, external blinds close, curtains in the rooms go up to avoid excessive dust collection, temperature is reduced, the ventilation goes to minimum power. The user will be notified
Use of the SMARTech System helps to optimally utilise the heating installation, which greatly increases the savings. The energy costs remain low, and at the same time the energy is distributed in such a way that the house feels comfortable. Intelligent control allows every room to have a different temperature (one usually requires different conditions in the living room, bedroom or childrens’ room), regardless of the weather conditions (two rooms
Lighting is one of the most important elements of the house. Nowadays, we spend the most time at home in the evenings. Therefore, lighting that suits the atmosphere and situation is a very important source of our satisfaction. If there is more than one entrance to a room and/or many light sources, conventional electrics can become very complicated. In case of intelligent control this is not a problem. We can
The SMARTech system allows for integration of important security measures. Not only the alarm system, but also smoke detectors, humidity sensors and other equipment may be integrated with the home electrics. Signals sent by them, input into the system, will allow the house to be protected from damage and to reduce the effects of random accidents. Integration with the security system makes possible, among other things, automatic turning on of
What are the savings generated by an SMARTech system? One of the most important criteria one considers when investing money is, apart from functionality, the profitability. Investors usually care only about the building budget, forgetting any future working costs. In the case of an Intelligent Home System, it is worth it to integrate the lighting control with the heating control. This requires only small additional costs. Operating costs of
You come home after a carefree holiday. It’s a warm summer evening. In the garden you take off your shoes. Barefoot, you step onto the soft, slightly damp grass that had just been sprayed with the automatic sprinkler system. You relish the moment breathing the fresh air. One thing is certain. You have to slowly start getting back to the real world. It isn’t easy. The last thing you remember
We could have placed here a sample system price calculation for a 'typical house’. But would it help You determine the price of a system for your home? Rather not. We have therefore put together the flexible tool you see below, which adapts itself to you, and not the other way around. Such are our systems – please remember this while analysing our offer. My data (this
1. How much does an intelligent home system cost?With over six years of experience in construction of Intelligent Home Systems we have done a value analysis of systems and services usually purchased by polish investors. Finally we can define an average cost level. It depends on the amount of living space and what the customer requires (prices below excluding VAT): 50-65 EUR/m2 – the basic variant (lighting control) 65-90 EUR/m2
Why should I invest in SMARTech System? SMARTech systems use the official European installation standard – KNX. This standard replaces conventional electrics and will soon be a standard in modern homes and buildings. KNX devices are manufactured by big European companies like ABB, BERKER, BOSCH, GIRA, HAGER, JUNG, MERTEN, MOELLER and SIEMENS. A house equipped with an intelligent installation is more comfortable, secure, economical, and has a greater value for
Although the first news about intelligent systems like this have intrigued me, I have treated them as a kind of a 'toy’. I was sceptical, have nonetheless started thinking about what I would want, and have finally reached a decision. Such a system makes sense. I am, after all, building a house, in which I am going to live longer than 2-3 years. It is worth taking care of the
When you enter your house, pleasant lighting comes on, the roller blinds and curtains go up. The system selects your favourite music, movie, or TV channel. You don’t need to nervously set the light level in the living room, surprised by guests – just press a button to change the scene (the feel) e. g. 'a party’ or 'guest visit’. When you leave your house, after you’ve turned your key
