Integration with Kone

You can enable and configure integration of AA-14FB panel with KONE elevators. This integration allows setting available for residents/visitors floors that will be displayed on the panel screen when a user ID is used. So, after opening the door with ID, the user can select the floor (from the list available) and see elevator No. that is ready for use. 

How to configure integration with KONE elevators

1. Register to the Kone API portal to get access to an elevator system and the data required for configuration.

2. In the Kone API portal, create a new application for a panel.
