ise smart connect KNX Sonos makes operation more convenient
Controlling music with a light switch
By combining Sonos and ise smart connect KNX Sonos, you can control your music system
comfortably as you pass by. It's quick, and there no need to look for a remote control. Never
be annoyed again because of a flat battery in your smartphone or tablet PC.
Playlist selection and volume control are given a fixed position in the KNX light switch.
You can even operate Sonos without glasses, after taking a shower, for example.
KNX switches with a display can also show you the track and artist if desired.
Naturally, that's not all you can do with the light switch. At the same time, operation can be
carried out from all KNX-compatible visualisation panels.
The music goes where you go
By combining Sonos and ise smart connect KNX Sonos, you can have music accompany
you as you go through the house thanks to the use of motion/presence detectors.
After getting up in the morning, the music will follow you to the bathroom and into the living
room, where you can begin your day with a cup of coffee.
Requirement: The Sonos hi-fi loudspeakers of the respective rooms are combined into a
zone. The Sonos hi-fi loudspeakers are muted in rooms which you have left.
Party at the push of button
With dynamic group creation, the ise smart connect KNX Sonos can switch to party mode
through a signal from the building bus. Pressing the "Party" button links all the Sonos devic-
es together and the house becomes a continuous party zone with the same music playing in
all the rooms. The volume can still be regulated individually in each room here.
Wake up your loved ones with the music of your choice at an increasing volume
Put children to sleep with an audio book at decreasing volume
The Wake up scene preselects your favourite music and gently increases the volume.
The Go to sleep scene does the opposite: Select an audio book and lower the volume by
and by.
Scenes like this are called up at the push of the light switch, using the house visualisation,
wirelessly from a smartphone or automatically through a time program.
If you wish, you can even link scenes to the sunrise and sunset!
