MyDrive Connect vs Equipment Touch

MyDrive® Connect communicates with VLT® Wireless Communication Panel LCP 103, offers full access to the drive making it easier to perform commissioning, operation, monitoring and maintenance tasks. There, status messages, start-up menus and alarm/warning events can be accessed. Additionally, data can be visualized using graphs documenting the behavior of a drive over time. Utilizing the active point-to-point wireless connection, maintenance personnel can receive real-time error messages via the app to ensure a quick response to potential issues and reduce downtime. Copies of the drive parameters can be stored, either to the internal memory of VLT® Wireless Communication Panel LCP 103 or to your smart device using the advanced LCP copy function. Log details can be shared from the app, so that the service team can provide relevant support for troubleshooting.

The Equipment Touch App allows you to connect your iPhone or iPad to a BAS controller via Wi-Fi or Ethernet. These connection(s) allows you to effortlessly access and control property settings, schedule equipment operations, monitor trends, and respond to alarms. When you connect to the controller, the Equipment Touch App automatically uploads a custom Equipment Touch view file that resides within the controller. Once this file is fully loaded, the app provides real-time status updates and parameter values, allowing you to seamlessly navigate through screens designed for equipment maintenance and troubleshooting. In cases where no custom Equipment Touch file is available in the controller, the Equipment Touch App grants access to pre-built system screens within the app itself. While these screens offer limited controller access, they serve as a valuable resource for basic troubleshooting.
