Lighting control
Scenes, dimming, DALI integration, presence-based automation, circadian profiles.
KNX Automation for Intelligent Buildings
Lighting, climate, shading, and energy systems — designed and integrated as one system. Engineering-grade KNX for reliable, long-term building automation.
What your KNX system includes
Climate control
Heating, cooling, underfloor systems, room-by-room scheduling, weather compensation.
Motorized shading
Blinds, curtains, louvres — automated by sun position, time, and room function.
Energy monitoring
Per-circuit consumption, load management, trend analysis, optimization alerts.
Security & access
Intercom integration, presence simulation, alarm zones, access logging.
Multiroom audio
Zone selection, volume control, source switching — integrated into the same KNX interface.

Why KNX, not wireless systems
KNX is used in high-end residential and commercial buildings where reliability is critical. It is the only open, wired standard for building automation with a 30-year track record.
Wired reliability
Dedicated bus cable, separate from power wiring. No Wi-Fi dependency, no signal interference, no batteries.
Long-term support
20+ year system lifecycle. Devices installed in 2005 still run. No forced obsolescence.
Manufacturer-independent
500+ manufacturers, 8,000+ certified products. You are never locked into one vendor.
Scalable
New rooms, new features, new integrations — added to the existing bus without rewiring the building.

Our services
Four engineering services, one team
Design, installation, programming, and ongoing support — covered by one team across the full KNX lifecycle.
KNX System Design
Functional specification, KNX topology, group addresses, device selection, wiring schematics. The system is fully defined before installation begins.
Installation & Commissioning
Cabinet assembly, on-site mounting, bus verification, individual addressing, function-by-function testing in every room.
ETS Programming
ETS configuration, scene programming, logic blocks, third-party integration, touch-panel and mobile visualization setup.
Technical Support
Post-move-in adjustments, seasonal reconfiguration, system expansion, remote diagnostics, firmware updates, annual health checks.

Why Virasmart
KNX-certified team
Trained and certified on the KNX standard. ETS programming, topology design, and commissioning as core competencies.
Projects in Latvia
Completed KNX installations across Latvia. Residential villas, apartments, and commercial spaces.
Engineering background
Founded by a Chartered Thermal Energy Engineer. We approach building automation as system engineering, not gadget installation.
Energy system integration
KNX connected to heating, cooling, and energy monitoring. One team that understands both the automation layer and the mechanical systems underneath.
Working with architects
If you are an architect or interior designer specifying building automation, we provide early-stage coordination, technical specifications, and contractor support.
How to work with VirasmartResources
