iRidium studio

Creating good-looking interfaces for your KNX projects

Unique interface design

iRidium studio allows to create a good-looking interface to realize your customers’ wishes.

Wide choice of graphic items and ready designs

Create an interface with the help of Gallery, using ready buttons, sliders, lists and other items.

Use ready interface designs that can suit any taste. You can see ready interface designs here.

Testing interface work with equipment

The Emulator allows to test interface work, to see how control commands work when creating a project. This function is convenient in debugging and it saves time.

JavaScript Editor

JavaScript in iRidium is a programming language on the basis of JavaScript with additional functions and methods. It allows to set complicated scenes and to add to your project equipment that is not currently supported in iRidium by creating your own drivers.

Support of Most Automation Standards


Add and set a driver to control your equipment one of the following ways:
- from iRidum device base;
- by importing a ready project or xml-file (KNX, Crestron, Clipsal, BACnet , Modbus)
- by scanning the net (HDL, Duotecno, Domintell)

Schemes to set data exchange and logics

Set data exchange between command channels and feedback channels of one or several drivers. You can also set elementary logics of work with a driver channels and feedback without using scripts.

Import from ETS

Import a ready KNX project from ETS and add required drivers to iRidium project.

Amazing Interfaces to Impress Your Clients

9 Reasons to Choose iRidium server

Local work without Internet access

 

Automation systems must not depend on Internet access. Some commercial projects are not allowed to have Internet access for security reasons.

More control capabilities of equipment

 

In many cases equipment can have only one connection, for example, Global Caché, Marantz, Beckhoff. If you want to control this equipment from more than one panel, a server is required. A server connects to equipment and allows any number of panels to control this equipment.

Gateway between different systems

 

It’s common practice to use equipment working via different protocols in large automation projects, for example KNX to control light, blinds, shutters, climate, Modbus in engineer systems (pumps, boilers), IP-protocol to control AV equipment.
Thanks to iRidium, there is no need to use different gateways from KNX to other systems. iRidium functions as a universal gateway and a single controller for all systems.

Built-in JavaScript

 

It is often required to set complicated logics of equipment work. iRidium JavaScript allows to realize all demands of a customer.

Remote control

 

iRidium server works 24/7 and provides remote control of an automation object. A server and a panel interact via our own protected protocol.

Physical interfaces and other protocols

 

iRidium server UMC has a module structure. It can include KNX, RS 485 (Modbus, HDL), 1Wire, Z-wave. It allows to save on purchasing different gateways and makes integration of different automation systems easier.

Support of most protocols

 

Our installers love iRidium for supporting numerous protocols. Support of protocols in iRidium includes not only support on the driver level, but also the scanning function, import of settings and other features that make setting easier.
If a system is not yet supported by us, our installers use iRidium driver Development Kit and realize support of required systems themselves.
If your company is a manufacturer of automation equipment, write us. We are open to cooperation and can add support of your protocol to our solution.

Hardware and software realization

 

Our server has both hardware (iRidium UMC, RPi, NUC) and software (software agent for Windows) realizations. The software can be downloaded from our web-site and can be used in large-scale objects and in a showroom.

Conversion of an automation object into a part of global IoT structure

 

iRidium server allows to set intellectual data exchange from KNX to Modbus, Crestron, etc., to MQTT and send them to cloud services and IoT platforms. Thus, you can integrate different objects in a single global system.

Database of drivers for professional automation systems
required for integration with KNX and other equipment

When working at a large-scale project KNX installers often have to work with a whole set of systems, for example, KNX for lighting, blinds, shutters and climate, Modbus for engineer systems (pumps, boilers), Extron for audio-video commutation, etc.

iRidum can control all systems. iRidium KNX server can function as a gateway between these systems.

iRidium allows to create a single interface to control all these systems.

Drivers for professional systems are written in C++, their work is fast and stable.

JS Modules

Ready modules for popular AV equipment and IoT devices save time on setting a project.

Modules contain drivers (written in JS) and widgets (a graphical interface) to control equipment.

Other Features

Voice control

iRidium allows to integrate KNX, AMX, Crestron, Modbus, HDL and other professional systems with voice assistants.

Intercom

Audio and video streams, as well as opening doors, are supported. Mobotix, Siedle, 2N, TrueIP, BusIP, DoorBird, etc. intercoms are successfully integrated. Push-notifications about a call come to a panel (smart phone) in any part of the world.

Integration with IP-cameras

Video streams of all modern IP-cameras, ONVIF and control of PTZ camera rotation are supported.

iRidium script

Built-in JavaScript and iRidium API allow to create advanced visualization, drivers to integrate third-party equipment, complicated logics of project and server work, graphs and trends. Data are processed by iRidium server.

Graphs and trends

Numerous capabilities to visualize data.

Notifications

A lot of notifications are available:
- push
- sms
- e-mail
- messengers (Telegram, Viber, Slack)
- phone call (via SIP)

Remote control

Different ways of remote control:
– with “white” IP-address - VPN or PortForwarding
– with "grey" IP- address - DynDNS + VPN/PortForwarding
– in other cases - iRidium Remote Cloud (soon)

iRidium server is required for remote control.

Opinion of KNX Professionals

Intelliger (Russia)

Dmitriy Kramarenko, technical director

We have been working with iRidium platform for quite a while. We think that at the moment it is the best solution to control home automation from mobile devices. It mostly refers to projects of private houses, where not only functions but also the graphical part of the interface matters. iRidium has a lot of advantages. The main for us is support of different equipment and different protocols, capability to create an individual interface without inviting professional programmers, fast technical support and steady development of the software platform.

Sovremeniy gorod (Belarus)

Evgeniy Kostenko, development director

I’ve been working with iRidium for 6 years. Both the software and iRidium mobile team are absolutely flexible. Feedback comes in no time. It’s not possible to find a more responsive team on the international market. That’s why products by iRidium mobile do not only keep up with the times, but go ahead. It’s an ideal software gateway. In addition, it supports many platforms and it does not take a lot of time to test the software right on the installation. Thanks to available functions, it can suit both a beginning installer and an advanced integrator.
