10. Gira S1 Windows client
The Gira S1 Windows client is an application that is installed on a computer, which can be used to
access devices on the remote network securely over the Internet if the HTTP protocol is not used. The
Gira S1 Windows client is not required for accessing websites on the remote network using a web
browser, see chapter 3.4 “Access to websites on the remote network”.
The most typical use cases for the Gira S1 Windows client include:
• Accessing KNX installations via the KNX/IP or the Eiblib/IP protocol.
• Configuring a Gira HomeServer with the Expert.
In addition, the Gira S1 supports the use of many other TCP-based IP protocols such as Microsoft's
Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) for remote access to a Windows computer.
The Gira S1 Windows client is currently available for Microsoft Windows versions 7 and higher. You
can find the current version at www.download.gira.de.
