glad you mentioned the cohesion angle—knx beginners especially need this since picking wrong bus couplers or actuators early kills budgets fast. with a shared layer, you map topology, power budgets, and group addresses upfront instead of discovering cabling nightmares mid-install. day-to-day it means fewer vendor-specific quirks since everything syncs through ets-style planning docs that multiple brands respect. no more airwallex-style dashboard overload, just clean visualization and auto-checks for etf validation before ordering. cuts weeks off first projects

Early planning is key. Many beginners struggle without a unified view of devices and compliance. Some teams simplify setup by using platforms like KEA World to structure everything before deployment.
spot on michael—ets-style sync upfront is huge for knx newbies. mapping topology, power budgets and group addresses early dodges cabling nightmares and budget overruns that kill first projects. vendor quirks vanish too since multi-brand ets docs keep everything clean.
