New: Loxone Config & App 14.7

The continuous development and improvement of the Loxone Config & App is our top priority. With the latest release of the current version 14.7 and another Audioserver update, you can expect numerous new and useful features that will further add to your great Loxone installation.

Discover more about the highlights of the new Config & App 14.7 in the video below:

01 New: Status Monitor

With the new Status Monitor you can easily and clearly monitor the status of your Loxone installation – with the possibility of breaking it down by: devices, objects, and rooms.

Practical example: Numerous televisions are used across the Loxone Campus. With this new module their status can be easily monitored eg if they are online and thus their condition. So that in the Loxone App you can see at a glance which televisions are working.

If a television is not online and accessible on the network, building maintenance are informed so that they can intervene before the guest experience is disrupted.

02 Improved Health Check

The Health Check combines Miniserver, Tree, Link and Air diagnoses and checks the system for correct functioning, thus offering enormous time savings when running checks on a project. This feature has now been further improved to detect cabling problems quicker. In addition, the Health Check has been integrated into the device status and can now be started directly from there.

03 Improved Counter Blocks

Config offers different counter blocks and options for measuring energy flows. However, previously there was a possibility for transmission errors to occur with different, manufacturer-independent meters. So unusual counter readings are now recognised by Config 14.7. With a reduction in meter readings no longer being “permitted” and unusually large increases are also identified. If these occur you will be informed about the incident via a system message.

04 New: Miniserver Shortcut

In many projects, several Miniservers are used that have certain devices or functions assigned to them. So now, if desired, a link between these Miniservers can be established using the new “Miniserver Shortcut” module. You can use the App to switch, even quicker, between the individual Miniservers.

Practical example: Park garden lighting and restaurant lighting at the Loxone Campus were implemented using different Miniservers – even though both areas are geographically close to each other. In order to be able to quickly access the park lighting as a restaurant employee, a shortcut was created to the appropriate location.

05 New: Miniserver Keychain

With the new Miniserver Keychain you can quickly select between all Miniservers that you have connected to in the past, and whose access data is saved on the Config start screen. The name of the Miniserver is also displayed.

06 New: NFC Import Data

Giving different users access to different areas quickly and easily is a strength of the Loxone access system. However, especially in large projects, the individual code assignment still takes some time. It is now possible to import a CSV file with different parameters such as name, validity period, etc.

07 Audioserver update

A new update is also available for the Loxone Audioserver, which, like the update for the Miniserver, contains a number of performance improvements.

As always, you can find an overview of all of the changes that came with the update in the Changelog.

The public beta for Loxone Config 15.0 is also available to download from today!
