Getting Started

Registration & Onboarding

How long does approval take after registration?

Approval is done manually by CB Node, within 24 hours of confirming your email address.

Why won't my Ajax hub connect to CB Node?

In most cases, office@cbnode.at hasn't been added as an installer in the Ajax app yet. Without this entry, CB Node can't access your hub.

How long can I try CB Node for free?

14 days for private customers, 30 days for installers/business customers. No credit card required.

Security & Privacy

How CB Node handles your data

Is my Ajax password stored by CB Node?

No. It's only transmitted once during setup and is never stored permanently.

What's the difference between the two update methods (SQS vs. automatic polling)?

SQS delivers status changes in real time directly from Ajax, while automatic polling checks your hub at regular intervals. SQS is the recommended, faster option.

Pricing & Payment

Costs & Billing

How do I pay?

By bank transfer or PayPal (invoice issued via PayPal).

What happens if I cancel?

You can cancel anytime; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current annual term.

What does the Dashboard/Floor Plan Designer cost on top?

€79 net/year/system, as an add-on to the installer/business plan.

Technology & Integrations

Compatibility & Features

Which systems is CB Node compatible with?

KNX, Loxone, Home Assistant, ioBroker, Node-RED, openHAB, IP-Symcon, plus an open REST API for your own applications.

Does CB Node also support fire alarm systems?

Yes, certified EN54 fire detectors are integrated directly via Ajax Bridge, independent of the system's arm/disarm state.

Can I manage multiple Ajax systems with one account?

Yes, as an installer/business customer — multiple hubs can be managed in a single account. For private customers, an account is designed for a single system.
