Depending on the basic modules of your Niko Home Control installation, you need to install the following additional products:


Required additional products

Reference numbers

Connected controller

Digital potential-free sensor module with one free input per signal that you want to use in Niko Home Control

If the output contact on your third-party device is not potential-free, you need an additional potential-free contact module (e.g. Finder 22.32.0.230.1xx0 for 230 V connections, Finder 22.32.0.012.1xx0 for 12 V DC connections, Finder 22.32.0.024.1xx0 for 24 V DC connections)

550-00210

Connected controller with a wireless bridge

Connected (double) switch with one free input (E) per signal that you want to use in Niko Home Control

If the output contact on your third-party device is not 230 V, you need an additional 230 V contact module (e.g. Finder 22.32.0.230.1xx0 for potential-free connections, Finder 22.32.0.012.1xx0 for 12 V DC connections, Finder 22.32.0.024.1xx0 for 24 V DC connections)

The connected (double) switch can be placed on a DIN rail using a modular holder (e.g. Legrand 412950)

552-721x1, 552-721x2

Wireless smart hub

Connected (double) switch with one free input (E) per signal that you want to use in Niko Home Control

If the output contact on your third-party device is not 230 V, you need an additional 230 V contact module (e.g. Finder 22.32.0.230.1xx0 for potential-free connections, Finder 22.32.0.012.1xx0 for 12 V DC connections, Finder 22.32.0.024.1xx0 for 24 V DC connections)

The connected (double) switch can be placed on a DIN rail using a modular holder (e.g. Legrand 412950)

552-721x1, 552-721x2
