 HomeMatic
 


For a control system to access lighting or blinds, time-consuming cabling to
electrical and control circuits used to be necessary.

HomeMatic is a simple and reliable alternative which uses RF for communication,
not cables, and is fully compatible with the AVIT control system.

 Overview

The product portfolio
The HomeMatic portfolio offers a number of different actuators and sensors. All functions are available which are needed in a home automation system. HomeMatic makes communication with actuators and sensors possible via a secure and encrypted RF protocol. The RF protocoll( BidCoS ) of the HomeMatic RF-Smokedetector is even VdS (Association of German property insurers) certified. 

A big number of actuators and sensors cover all functions, that are required in a building automation system. In the next few months COMM-TEC will launch the wide product portfolio, starting with 230 Volt actuators for in-wall mounting. 

The actuators can be installed easily later on in an existing electrical installation. Parallel to a touch panel you can still use your ordinary switches. You simply put a radio interface in your in-wall mount box and the on/off-commands will be immediately transmitted via radio to the actuator. 


Because of the bi-directional communication, there is no problem to use a switch parallel with a AVIT control system. There are also the light switches, that are powered by a battery, that can be used directly together with a actuator. You can place it basically everywhere without any problems and any cables.

In addition, HomeMatic also offers a remote control. So the customer is able to control his light, electric screen, blinds and others centralized from his control system, with a simple light switch in the room and wireless with the remote.

 How does HomeMatic work with AVIT?
AVIT / Stardraw Control communicates through the network (TCP/IP) using the LAN-Gateway, which acts as interface between Ethernet and the HomeMatic radio frequencies.

The paired RF-components give feedback automatically in case their state is changing, so that means you do not need to poll them.
   

 How secure is HomeMatic?
The data between the radio components is transmitted scrambled (AES - Advanced Encryption Standard - Key). A monitoring of the communication through third parties is not possible.

So you do not have be afraid of that your neighbour might switches on and off your lights using his remote control. This is not so unusual when using other radio systems with the same devices.
   
 Where can I use that system?

You can use the system almost everywhere:

  • Office buildings 

  • Hotels

  • Residential buildings 

  • Conference rooms
 Advantages of HomeMatic
HomeMatic offers many advantages compared to other systems:
  • Simple installation or extension of existing systems

  • Range extension due to the use of multiple LAN Gateways,
    also in different or tight and angled buildings

  • The used frequency is the secure 868 MHz wave band

  • Higher range compared to similar systems

  • Lights, blinds and electric screens could be easily integrated

  • Easy retrofitting, without dirt or dust

  • Bi-directional radio-communication

  • RF-protocoll of the smoke-detector is VdS-certified

  • Already existing light swichtes can still be used

  • Very attractive solution in price
