Access your Link4 iGrow 1800 and Pearl environmental controllers anywhere you go with the Link4 Cloud App. This App does not work for the Link4 iPonic, iGrow 800, and Sapphire environmental controllers (to access these controllers go to this web address: https://link4cloud.com/). Using the Link4 Cloud with your iGrow 1800 and Pearl environmental controllers you can receive real-time alarm notifications, get sensor readings, make configuration changes, access critical crop information, and enter Grow Journal Notes and Tasks. The Link4 Cloud allows you to always be linked to your grow operation, no matter where you are in the world.
