Easier Automation with flexROOM®

It offers a Web-based graphical user interface for integrating and configuring lights, sunblinds, actuators, sensors and room control units. The concept is based on segments as the smallest functional units within buildings in which room automation functions are performed across all building systems. This segment-oriented concept allows a flexible association of office space with rooms or open-space areas throughout the entire lifecycle of the building.

The application solution allows direct connection of Thermokon Sensortechnik GmbH’s Novos Series Room Operating Units. It also supports a wide selection of EnOcean® wireless room control units and sensors, so integrating the right control unit for your application is never a problem. MP-Bus is now an integral component of the flexROOM^® application, allowing use of intelligent valve actuators for distributed sensors and cost-effective cabling.

Planning, commissioning and building operation must demonstrate maximum efficiency and a high degree of adaptability. For this reason, flexROOM® was specifically developed for projects with a large number of identical rooms such as office and administrative buildings, as well as schools.

flexROOM® skillfully sets up lighting scenes – from simple switching and dimming up to tailored and daylight-dependent lighting controls.
In rooms with incident daylight that do not always need full lighting: flexROOM® intelligently uses constant artificial lighting to bridge the gap between required brightness levels and current daylight. Thanks to a light sensor, lighting levels remain constant; when it gets darker outside, the lighting control system automatically increases the artificial light and vice versa.

Modern architecture in new buildings increasingly relies on glass surfaces. On one hand, the glass lets plenty of daylight into the interior spaces while improving occupant well-being and reducing interference such as reflections. On the other hand, high light penetration leads to overheated rooms – particularly in the summer. The high temperatures and direct sunlight not only affect occupants, but plants and furniture as well. With flexROOM^®, you reduce energy costs for heating, cooling and artificial lighting. An automated sun protection system with seasonal sunscreening also contributes to climate protection and minimizes the use of fossil fuels.

flexROOM® includes every vital function from set point adjustment to heating/cooling valve control. The set point can be changed by a room's occupant. A room's temperature is lowered when leaving the room or opening a window. The energy consumption of unoccupied rooms is minimized.

In order to use the application’s full functionality, you need the flexROOM^® software. The software is available after registration. When you register, we’ll email you the latest version of the software and can help you with any questions at any time.
