As soon as KNX Association has received the registration application, KNX Association will:
- On the basis of the provided online forms, make a first non-binding technical evaluation of the certifiability of the submitted product compared to the valid specifications. If negative, the KNX Certification Department has the right to refuse the relevant application. The above technical evaluation does not in any way imply that what has been registered by KNX automatically passes the ultimate third-party conformity tests.
- (In case of an above positive evaluation), register the relevant products by attributing consecutive numbers (“KNX registration numbers”) and will integrate the product data into its central database;
- Release the product(s) together with an invoice charging the applicant with the KNX registration fees according to its Scale of fees. Right after registration, the applicant can find the KNX registration number of his product/application program in the product catalog of his MyKNX account.
- If desired by the applicant, the product data will also be integrated into the KNX list of registered/certified KNX products on the KNX website.
Once registered, the product may be sold branded with the KNX trademark.
Remarks:
Should the product and/or application turn out not to comply to the KNX requirements during the testing phase, according to the stipulations of the signed Trademark license agreement, KNX Association may:
- oblige the applicant to remove the KNX trademark;
- in severe cases of non-conformity, claim redress for the prejudice caused using the KNX trademark on a non-conforming product and publish information about the sanctions taken;
KNX Standard basis for registration/certification
