About

Elkron Egon

Read full description

Egon is the ELKRON APP that allows you to manage security and home automation functions with your smartphone. Now you can control your home, your office or your shop at any time of the day, wherever you are. In addition to arming / disarming your alarm in whole or in part and viewing images from your home, you can now: - command the lights - vary the temperature - command the shutters - manage electrical loads. The Egon APP sends you a notification in the event of an alarm: it is thus possible to immediately check what is happening while you are not there. Is it a false alarm or is it a real danger? Check immediately and send the appropriate commands to the control unit.
