Minimum Programming knowledge.
Students of this course will acquire the following knowledge:
- recognize the different elements that made up an automated application (Sensors, actuators, API´s, SCADA´s
).
- Know the particularity of the automated applications in and industrial environment.
- Know the stages of a design project and execution of an automated application.
- Understand and design a simple domotic installation.
- Learn to program a centralized and a distributed domotic system.
- Implement a simple SCADA with API´s KNX.
The evaluated acquired competences that are:
- G-1: Analysis and synthesis capacity.
- G-2: Basic general knowledge about the studied area.
- G-14: Team work.
- G-22: Capacity to apply knowledge into practice.

The methodology is the same for both parts, automatic and domotic, and consists in lectures with the student´s active participation. The lectures are taught at the laboratory (Automatic Laboratory), where the professor combines theoretical explanations with practical demonstrations. By the other hand, there are also other practices that shall be developed outside class hours.
All classes have a continuous evaluation process in which the student has a test that indicates his following-level of the subject. This implies that the student must study or solve some problems at home and that are commented in class.
Practices have to be accomplished out of class time, but students have a schedule where they will receive a personalized attention by the professor to solve doubts about the theory, problems or practices.
This subject has two parts: automatic and domotic. It is necessary to pass both parts with a grade higher than 5. Once both parts are passed, the subject´s final grade is calculated in the following way:
Final_Grade = Automatic_Grade *0,5 + Domotic_Grade * 0,5
Evaluation of the Automatic part:
The Automatic grade (Automatic_Grade) is calculated as follows:
Automatic_Grade = Practice_Grade * 0,6 + CE_Grade * 0,4
CE_Grade is the continuous evaluation grade obtained along the course from the exercises, works and tests done during classes.
Practice evaluation: There are 2 practices in this course. The first practice is a 40% of the grade. The second practice represents the other 60% of the grade. To pass each practice is necessary that it works correctly and that the report that contains its development and the obtained results are acceptable.
Evaluation of the Domotic part:
The Domotic grade (Domotic_Grade) is calculated as follows:
Domotic_Grade = Practice_Grade * 0,6 + CE_Grade *0,4
CE_Grade is the continuous evaluation grade obtained along the course from the exercises, works and tests done during classes.
Practice evaluation: To pass this practice is necessary that it works correctly and that the report that contains its development and the obtained results are acceptable. The first part is done with Zelio and is a 20% of the grade. The other 80% will be evaluated with the KNX part.
