euLINK: smart building "translator"

euLINK

The euLINK gateway is a hardware-based communication interface between FIBARO smart building system and infrastructure devices, e.g. air conditioning, heating, ventilation, DALI*) lighting, roller shutters, audio/video equipment, etc.

It can also be used as a universal recorder for data gathered from sensors, meters and gauges of various physical values. It is also useful as a protocol converter, e.g. TCP/IP ↔ RS-232/RS-485 or MODBUS TCP ↔ MODBUS RTU.

The euLINK gateway has modular design and can be upgraded with various peripheral modules (e.g. DALI ports) connected to the SPI ports or to I2C ports of the central unit. There is also an euLINK Lite version with half the RAM memory (1 GB) and a slightly slower processor.

euLINK DALI port

The euLINK DALI port can only work with euLINK or euLINK Lite.

Up to 4 euLINK DALI ports can be connected to 1 euLINK. For technical and performance reasons we recommend that up to 2 euLINK DALI ports should be connected to 1 euLINK Lite.

single euLINK DALI port can control up to 64 DALI lights. Hence, one euLINK with the maximum number of 4 euLINK DALI ports can control maximum 256 DALI lights.

Similarilty, 1 euLINK Lite with 2 euLINK DALI ports can control up to 128 DALI lights.

USING euLINK IS SIMPLY SMART. AS SMART AS YOUR INSTALLATION DESIGN CAN GET:

TRULY SMART & INTEGRATED BUILDING

With euLINK the FIBARO smart building solution is now able to combine the most important management functions of an intelligent building: lights (including DALI), AC, heating, ventilation, recuperation, weather stations, security alarm and many other. This makes a safe, “green”, and energy-efficient living environment. One app to control (almost) everything.

UNIQUE YET UNIVERSAL

The euLINK is effectively a common communication platform for all building installations and objects operating in the IoT (Internet of Things) space. It can combine electrical, teletechnical, HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning), alarm installations, sound systems, monitoring, building security, metering and all others operations in a building. It is THE ONLY SOLUTION on the market dedicated to the FIBARO solution platform providing such a wide functionality.

EASE OF USE: SIMPLE INTERFACE & INFRASTRUCTURE MANAGEMENT

The configuration and system management of euLINK is performed via any web browser, eg Google Chrome, FireFox, Safari, etc. It is a convenient solution – you can install the system from anywhere, depending on your preferences and needs.

FIGHTING "BABEL TOWER" BY APPLYING COMMON LANGUAGE

With euLINK we are bringing back the universal language of communication been the “languages” from different manufacturers of the infrastructure devices.

Intuitive Installation - No programming skills required

Yes, no programming skills are needed to install and run the infrastructure devices via the euLINK gateway. Once a device template is selected and configured, the appropriate euLINK driver sends a sequence of API commands, which automatically creates a virtual device – ready to communicate with the euLINK and the related infrastructure device. New infrastructure devices become visible in your FIBARO app (on a smartphone, tablet, computer) and are immediately available for creating scenes.
