3 Every io-homecontrol component in a home talks the same language. A single remote control is enough to open, close, lock, turn on, turn off, heat, ventilate, and more. You do what you want, where you want in your home, even when you are away.

During the day Depending on the time of day, roller shutters close automatically to block out harsh sunlight, and roof windows in shadow open a crack to air out rooms. In the evening On coming home, the front gate and garage door open, the alarm is turned off, the entryway door unlocks, lights and the heating come on.

4 io-homecontrol uses a two-way radio protocol for communications at frequencies between 868 MHz and 870 MHz. The protocol is in compliance with European norm EN for low-power radio applications. Each user command is always checked and confirmed by an audible or visual signal. No one can hack into your home, because information between io-homecontrol components is authenticated and secured, thanks to 128-bit key encryption. with instant feedback Anytime, you can check the status of your home or of a component (open/closed, on/off). No risk of radio interference, because the system has a listen-before-talk feature; if a frequency channel setting is blocked, the system hops to the next closest clear channel. On holidays or weekends io-homecontrol lets you simulate a presence in your home: roller shutters go up and down; lights go on and off. At the same time, the heating is on low, and the alarm is set. House doors, gates, garage doors, windows and anything else you want are closed. At night The heating is on low (and set to come back up in the morning), the alarm is set, the lights in each room are off, roller shutters are closed, and the front door is locked. You know everything is safe, because the little green light on your remote control display is fl ashing OK. You are ready for a peaceful night s sleep.
