Geographical zone (apartment)

The term "Geographical zone (apartment)" is specified by KNX and implies a
building divided into geographical (physical) zones. However, in practice it is
related to the operating strategy, which is defined as follows:
One "Geographical zone (apartment)" consists of a number of buildings or parts
of buildings which are grouped together from an operational point of view and
which obey the following criteria:
Same room operating mode.
–
Same room temperature (setpoint, actual value).
–
Based on this definition, the "geographical zone (apartment)" might better be
referred to as an "operating zone".
The "Geographical zone (apartment)" is used together with RM... controllers,
RXB/RXL room controllers, RDG/RDF/RDU room thermostats, and QAW740 room
unit.
