## What is ST SmartControl?

ST SmartControl is a smartphone app and a Wi-Fi radio receiver that allows the smartphone to act as a remote control.

Using the smartphone Wi-Fi, the app orders the appropriate radio receiver to execute the command. Once the app is launched, a virtual remote control is visible on the smartphone display. To activate the automation, just press the corresponding button, like a traditional remote control. The app will give a signal of its correct functioning by means of a virtual LED signal.

It's easy to use and anyone can do it, in fact you just need to be able to use a smartphone.

It is a virtual remote control to operate doors, gates, garages, or any kind automation.

On first use: Install the WI-FI receiver. Download the app. Configure the type of automation. Launch the app on your smartphone.

Operational use: Start the app and press the virtual button visible on the smartphone screen to activate the corresponding automation.

ST SmartControl allows you to use the same device to operate several gates or automations configured to them and allows you to maintain the receiving system/electronic control unit in case of loss or theft of the remote control. In fact in these cases you just need to lock the smartphone.

ST SmartControl means zero maintenance cost, it is environmentally friendly, no printed circuit boards, and no batteries to replacing.
