The release of Loxone Config 14.7, just over a month ago, saw lots of new features added to our building automation ecosystem. We published a blog announcing the release of the latest version and highlighted 8 exciting new features and improvements. In this echo blog, we’re still talking about the latest release; with even more information about what was included in Config 14.7…

You can find all the information about Config 14.7 in our release blog here. 

Network devices: Address Resolve Fallback

Thanks to the new ‘Address Resolve Fallback’ feature, the Miniserver and the Loxone network devices can be found even if the network settings have not been configured correctly. The new fallback system now automatically searches the network for the device in order to establish a connection – for example, if you are in a different subnet or if the local address of the device has been stored incorrectly when you change from a static to a dynamic IP.

Window and door monitoring 

In the new version, window and door monitoring objects can now be nested. In addition, the Gate/Garage Function Block for garages or garage doors can also be selected.

Window

The Window Function Block has been given a new output for the target position (TPos) and a new input for the current position (CPos). This enables even more precise and user-friendly control of the windows.

Loxone Library

The Loxone Library contains numerous templates for integrating a wide range of devices into Loxone Config. With the new Config 14.7, it is no longer necessary to go to the Loxone Library website to download templates. Search & Download are now conveniently possible directly via the Loxone Config.

Mathematical. Function Blocks

Our mathematics Function Blocks: Add, Multiply, Min/Max and Average can now be connected to several sensors at one input. This simplifies the complete configuration, especially in larger projects, as fewer blocks are needed, making the configuration clearer and leaner.
