About

Delégo

Features
Read full description

Delégo is a system for the supervision and control of a KNX standard home automation system. Developed with web-oriented technologies, it has a uniform interface with a high graphic impact on every platform, both desktop (PC) and mobile, with both local and remote connection. The system consists of a compact server (based on the Linux operating system) to be installed in an electrical panel: the device connects directly to the KNX bus via twisted pair; the connection to the home router is made via the Ethernet port on your local network (LAN). The user can interact with the system either by means of mobile devices, or with one or more fixed positions, by means of Delégo panel, touch-panel with elegant and minimal design, for wall installation, connected via Ethernet port on its own local area network (LAN). The Delégo supervision system is characterized by a simple and at the same time extremely complete configuration, thanks to the direct import of the ETS project file. The functional definition of the various imported home automation objects and the correspondence with a rich and customizable set of controls (widgets) for the user is also very easy. The renewed interface is simple and intuitive and allows the user to interact with the home automation system of their smarthome through the use of different devices, with absolute uniformity of use. The app allows you to remotely control lights, climate, automatisms, audio / video equipment, shutters and more with a simple touch, from a single device and from any point of the building reached by the Wi-Fi network, or remotely via web connection.
