When you create a new project in the Niko Home Control II programming software version 2.x, you must choose the installation type:
- Connected controller
- Wireless smart hub for Niko Home Control.
This choice determines which menus, controls, devices, basic actions and routines are available in the programming software. You can change your choice later on, but then the entire project will be erased.
