The starting point for most projects incorporating control and monitoring functionalities. Multifunction device that integrates a 640 mA KNX power supply, KNX-IP Interface, 4 independent thermostats, logical module, 12 analogue/digital inputs and 16 relay outputs (16 AC loads) in only 12 DIN rail units. Offers multiple configuration options as individual outputs, shutter channels or fan coils.

The ALLinBOX is a perfect solution for smaller homes, hospitality & hotels. But it can also be used for any size home with the addition of more relays and interfaces.

  • Everything you need in one device
  • 16 Channels, allowing for 16 different lighting feeds; however, these channels can also be used for underfloor heating control, towel rails, blinds, contacts (garage door / gate), etc…
  • Ability to expand: with it being a KNX device, you can always add more KNX devices to further expand the functions of your home.
  • Low Cost: The ALLinBOX reduces the barrier to entry into having a smarter home.
  • 12 inputs that can be set up as switches to control anything on the KNX Bus, e.g., if you have blinds or dimming lights, these can be used on a long press to control them as well.
  • Power supply to power the entire KNX bus, including any touchscreen panels, sensors and more
  • IP Interface allows for programming of the system and integration into other IP systems
  • Thermostats and logical functions can be used to further automate anything in your home

Devices that pair well with this:

  • Narrowdim X2 Universal dimming actuator (RLC, LED, CFL*) for DIN-rail mounting (2 units) with 2 channels for up to 210 W at 230 V AC
  • Remote BOX allows the remote control of the installation through Zennio Remote, being able to distribute 100 controls in up to 12 customisable pages. It includes 10 logical functions.
  • Zeniio Klic range: Integrate your air conditioning unit directly into the system for greater automation functions

Installing the ALLinBOX is a very straightforward process, as long as you prepare properly during the pre-wire phase. There is one major difference compared to every other KNX device: the inputs at every switch need to run back to this unit, whereas with KNX systems using switch interfaces, you can tap into the KNX bus wherever you want a switch. A good way to do this is to run a separate CAT 6 cable to each switch location, as this will give you the option to use up to 7 switches at each location if needed. Other than that, everything else is done the same way.

It simply does everything you need it to do, and it doesn’t take up much space in doing so. All the components are well made and work as well as their standalone counterparts; in terms of reliability, it has many protection measures built into it to protect each of the components. These devices are very popular in townhouses, as they will rarely exceed the need of 16 outputs and 12 inputs. Other common uses are light commercial shops, where you don’t need a larger number of outputs and inputs.
