Your smart home should work. Without detours, without cloud dependency, without complicated setup. The 1Home Server Voice & Visu finally makes KNX intuitive. You control lighting, heating, and shading via app, voice, or automations. Everything runs locally, securely, and quickly. You connect your home directly with Apple Home, Google Home, or Alexa. You don’t need an ETS licence, programming skills, or patience for technical detours. You get a system that saves you time, avoids errors, and truly makes your home smart. Want to know how it works?
Are you looking for a way to finally control your KNX installation the way you’ve always wanted – intuitive, fast, local, and with full control via voice, app, and automations? Then the 1Home Server Voice & Visu is exactly the device you need. It brings your existing KNX infrastructure into the world of modern smart home systems without sacrificing the reliability and stability you’re used to from KNX. It is not just a gateway but a well-thought-out tool for system integrators and ambitious users that makes your work easier while offering your customers a real comfort advantage. The setup is designed so that you don’t need an ETS licence, don’t have to install complicated software, and don’t have to duplicate work when transferring group addresses. Instead, you simply upload your ETS project, the server automatically recognises all relevant devices, checks the configuration for errors, and provides you with an immediately ready-to-use visualisation. This saves time, reduces error sources, and ensures you can focus on what matters: a functioning, stable, and modern smart home.
The 1Home Server Voice & Visu is designed to be fully local. This means: even if the internet fails, your smart home continues to work. Lighting, heating, shading – everything remains controllable because neither Matter nor KNX requires a cloud connection. Only the voice control via Siri, Google Assistant, or Alexa needs an internet connection, but even that is integrated so you don’t need additional gateways or cloud services. The server natively speaks the Matter protocol, which is supported by all major smart home platforms. Apple Home, Google Home, Samsung SmartThings – everything can be connected directly, without detours or proprietary bridges. You only need a Matter-compatible hub, such as an Apple TV or a Google Nest Hub, and you can control your KNX devices by voice or app. Everything remains local, secure, and privacy-friendly. The server does not send user data to the cloud, only minimal system information for updates or support purposes. Your data stays with you – as it should.
The hardware is compact, robust, and suitable for the control cabinet or the technology shelf. With dimensions of 12.5 x 13 x 7 cm, the device fits easily into any installation. In the package, you will find, besides the server itself, a welcome card, a label with serial number, access data, and the Matter pairing code. Power supply and network cable must be provided separately, which is standard for professional installations anyway. Integration into your existing KNX system is possible either via KNX TP (Twisted Pair) or KNXnet/IP tunnelling. You can integrate any number of group addresses and devices – the server sets no limits here. For Matter integration, there is an upper limit of 250 devices, where a device can be, for example, a light, thermostat, or roller shutter. KNX group objects do not count as individual devices, giving you maximum flexibility in project planning.
The visualisation is done via the 1Home app, which was specially developed for this server. It is not just a simple control interface but a powerful tool for managing, automating, and analysing your smart home. You can create scenes, group devices, define automations, and even monitor energy consumption – all in a single, clear interface. The app is available for iOS and Android and can also be used in a web browser. Particularly practical: you can operate the visualisation fully locally or optionally control it remotely via a secure remote access while on the move. The performance remains high at all times because the server is equipped with a modern hardware platform specially optimised for the requirements of KNX and Matter. No delays, no dropouts – just reliable control.
Another highlight is the automatic project check. As soon as you upload your ETS project, the server analyses the configuration and points out possible errors. Misconfigured group addresses, missing feedback, or duplicate assignments are detected and reported. This not only saves time but also prevents later problems during operation. Especially for larger projects or when handing over to end customers, this is an invaluable advantage. You can be sure everything works – and your customer immediately notices that professional work has been done here. Setting up voice control is also very simple. You don’t have to create special skills or routines, nor configure cloud services. Everything runs via Matter, which integrates seamlessly into the respective platforms. Once paired, you can control your KNX devices with simple voice commands – lights on, heating down, roller shutter up. And the best part: you can adjust the names and functions directly in the app without having to go back to ETS.
Distinction between Server KNX and Server Voice & Visu:
| Feature | 1Home Server KNX | 1Home Server Voice & Visu |
|---|---|---|
| KNX → Matter release | Yes | Yes |
| Matter → KNX reintegration | Yes | No |
| Voice control via Matter | Yes | Yes |
| Visualisation | App & Web | App |
| Automations (KNX + Matter) | Yes | No |
| Matter devices configurable in ETS | Yes | No |
| Integration direction | KNX ↔ Matter | KNX → Matter |
The 1Home Server Voice & Visu is not only interesting for new buildings but especially for existing installations. If you already have a KNX installation and want to modernise it without redoing everything, this server is the perfect solution. You don’t have to lay new cables or replace devices – you simply add the server, integrate your existing installation, and immediately have access to modern control options. The device is also ideal for small to medium projects because it offers all the functions you need without unnecessary overhead. At the same time, it is future-proof because 1Home continuously develops the platform. New functions, better automations, extended visualisations – all are already planned or in development. So you’re not just investing in a product but in a platform that grows with your requirements.
If you work as a system integrator, you will quickly appreciate the advantages. The setup is so fast and reliable that you can implement several projects per week without having to deal with lengthy configuration. Automatic device recognition, project checking, and simple visualisation save you hours of work – and make your customers happy. 1Home’s support is also geared towards professionals. You get direct access to a dedicated support channel, quick help with problems, and regular updates with new functions. The documentation is clear, understandable, and practical – no marketing fluff, but real help for real projects.
If you are looking for a device that takes your KNX installation to the next level without compromises on data protection, reliability, or usability, then the 1Home Server Voice & Visu is exactly right for you. It combines the best of two worlds: the stability and professionalism of KNX with the flexibility and user-friendliness of modern smart home systems. You get a tool that makes your work easier, delights your customers, and opens up new possibilities – today, tomorrow, and in the future.
