- Several new options available to automatically create the Pairot project from the KNXproj file

The new options to automatically create the Pairot project, are explained in this video:

Option 1 - Functions
This option requires ETS 5.6 or higher. Since that version, you can add functions to the building structure. This requires a slightly different way of programming, but allows for new features, and easy conversion to for example a Pairot project. These functions and some other datapoint types will automatically be detected and added to the Pairot project, as well as the building structure. This feature will also become available for xxter projects later this year as well!
More information how this works in ETS can be found here: https://youtu.be/mkbgH79m1qo

Option 2 - Middle groups
When using different middle groups for different “functions” in ETS, for example 1/1 for switching light, 1/2 for relative dimming etc, you can add blinds and lights easily to the Pairot project based on these groups.

Most KNX projects can easily be converted to a Pairot project using one of these options, which results in less programming time during setup!

The new functions can be selected after you upload the KNXproj file.

See the website for a complete overview of all supported accessory types and the manuals on how to set them up.

Ik kan geen component in xxter vinden voor de ondersteuning van deze types: RGB (DPT 232.600), RGBW (DPT 251.600) and XY (DPT 242.600). Is er een update van de xxter voorzien die dat wel ondersteund? Nu kan ik geen RGBW LED controllers aansturen

Dit wordt ondersteund in een xxter V2 project. Ik zie in een andere post dat je deze inmiddels gevonden hebt. Een reactie op die post volgt later.
