Wiser KNX Home Energy Management System (HEMS)
This chapter guides an installer through the setup of the controller to enable energy monitoring in the mobile application.
It requires a system integrator or an installer to know the general setup of the controller, which involves device commissioning and KNX object management.
The mobile application and its energy management provide information about house consumption, solar energy production, actual power flow, etc. It can also give insights into energy costs and CO2 impact.
Required settings and installations:
-
Energy monitoring devices, as described below, have to be installed, connected to the controller, and commissioned:

Other devices with energy monitoring options supported by KNX and/or the controller
-
Smart plug
-
Smart socket
-
-
The Energy plugin has to be installed and configured. It is available in the controller’s Marketplace and is designed to map the energy data from the devices described above.
-
The mobile application is installed on your mobile phone (the latest version available in the Google Playstore and Apple Appstore), and the valid account is linked with the controller.
-
You must set your controller location in the mobile application (see more in Home Management).
