IP-Symcon 8.1
Modern Charts
Charts provide information about the progression of values and are therefore an indispensable part of Symcon. This view has been completely redesigned. This not only makes the charts look modern, but they also offer various new functions, such as a free selection of the displayed range.
Energy Manager
The Energy Manager also shines in new splendor for version 8.1. The update supports many more devices, especially non-switchable energy storage systems. Furthermore, support for the legal requirements of §9 EEG and §14a EnWG has been implemented.
HomeMatic
HCU (Beta)
With the HCU, the latest HomeMatic Gateway can now be used in Symcon. As usual, the gateway integrates natively into Symcon and offers the familiar convenience features. It is found via discovery and the integrated devices and groups can be created directly via the configurator and used immediately.
Enterprise Features
for Everyone
On a small scale, selected Enterprise Features can now be used without any paid extension. This makes it possible to test the features in advance, of course also as part of a demo version. Or perhaps there is simply a small use case like synchronizing with the Symcon in the caravan.

Presentations
Presentations offer a new dimension for the configuration of variables. After selection a presentation type like "Slider", "Color", or "Duration", it can be individualized with different parameters. This new structure enables a multitude of new possibilities for using variables in the visualization.
Door Intercom System
With the implementation of door intercom systems, they can be used seamlessly within the visualisation. On a ring, the image of the camera can be watched directly within a dialog. After talking to the guest, the user can open the door can directly from the dialog.
Wireless M-Bus
In addition to the tethered M-Bus devices, the version 8.0 supports the wireless devices of Wireless M-Bus. These can be connected with the common gateways from WE or IMST.
User Management
The new version offers a user management (RBAC) for our Enterprise customers. Users can be created and assigned to any user group. User accounts can be created directly within IP-Symcon oder imported via LDAP.

IP-Symcon 7.2
New icons
The number of icons has been increased many times over. Instead of the previous 165 icons, you can now choose from 3787 different icons for all possible occasions. The Management Console supports a division by category and an intelligent quick filter so that the optimum icon can easily be selected from this large number of icons.
KNX: Semantic export
Semantic export (TTL) is now integrated in the KNX configurator. This means that the time required to set up the visualization can be reduced to a minimum and the visualization can be set up almost completely with the export - manual reworking or assignment of status addresses, names or the building structure is no longer necessary.
Improved synchronization of remote systems
The integration of the Sync Remote for our Enterprise customers has been further improved. The console now displays special categories such as core, discovery, etc. of the remote system. The display in the physical object tree is now also divided into local and remote systems.
Stable streams in visualization
The stability of video streams in the visualization has been improved. Previously, streams could break or IP-Symcon could crash in some constellations. The errors have been fixed so that streams are now used as intended in the visualization in all cases.

Version 7.1 also brings some new options for tile visualization. The display of categories can now be customized. The Energy Distribution also offers various new options. In particular, it is now possible to group several entries.
VPN (WireGuard)
