KNX ETS Documentation Recovery

Project context

KNX ETS Documentation Recovery

A villa with KNX but no ETS project is serviceable only with difficulty. The goal is not to invent missing information, but to recover enough structure for safe maintenance and future upgrades.

What we check first

What we check first

Whether an ETS file, backup or export exists anywhere
How group addresses, actuators, sensors and switches behave in the real villa
Which circuits are unlabelled or risky to change
What documentation the property manager needs for service
Typical villa situation

Typical villa situation

A villa was purchased with KNX installed, but no usable project file was handed over.
The maintenance team cannot identify which actuator controls a room or scene.
The owner wants upgrades, but the system must be documented first.
Commercial outcome

The owner receives a realistic documentation pack: what is known, what was reconstructed and which limitations remain before future changes.

Decision notes for the villa

Decision notes for the villa

This section turns the service path into practical decisions for the owner, property manager and technical team before work starts.

Owner decision

The owner should know what can be recovered, what can only be inferred and what must remain marked as unknown until future work exposes it.

Property-manager value

The manager receives labels and caution notes that make everyday support less risky.

Technical note

Recovered group-address notes are treated as service documentation, not as a promise that the original ETS project can always be recreated perfectly.

Who this is for

Who this is for

Owner planning a villa in Marbella, Benahavís, Sotogrande or Mallorca
Developer who wants smart home engineering before installation choices are frozen
Architect or electrician who needs KNX/Home Assistant requirements translated into practical drawings
Property manager who will inherit the operating system after handover
Problems we solve

Problems we solve

  • Missing ETS file or old backups that cannot be trusted
  • Unclear group addresses and no room-by-room labels
  • Maintenance team afraid to change anything
  • Future upgrades blocked by undocumented logic
What Smart-IoT does

What Smart-IoT does

The owner receives a realistic documentation pack: what is known, what was reconstructed and which limitations remain before future changes.

Checks panels, devices, labels, exports and live behavior

Known / unknown map

Reconstructs usable naming and structure where technically possible

Device and circuit labels

Documents limitations instead of pretending full recovery is guaranteed

Recovered group-address notes

Creates a maintenance-ready reference for future work

Owner, manager and technical team view

Owner, manager and technical team view

Owner: simple scenes, fewer apps and clear control from day one.
Property manager: service notes, access modes and visibility for technical issues.
Technical team: topology, labels, backups and maintainable integration logic.
Questions before we start

Questions before we start

Can every ETS file be recovered?

No. Some information may be lost, but a useful maintenance structure can often be rebuilt.

Will you modify the live system immediately?

No. We document and verify before making changes.

Is this useful before renovation?

Yes. It reduces risk before any upgrade work.

Send us the current situation and we will suggest the safest next step for the villa.
