GRAPHIC MAPS Enable or disable devices directly touching icons on the map. INTUITIVE ICONS Enable and disable different areas of your home. HOME AUTOMATION Control lighting, heating, irrigation. VIDEOSURVEILLANCE With Metronet, you can view your video surveillance system cameras directly from your smartphone or tablet. MORE POWER TO SECURITY IESS takes advantage of a solid, last generation Cloud Server to be able to incorporate and manage a large number of control units connected via Wi-Fi (for compatible models), LAN Ethernet and GSM. Compared to integrated Web Server solutions, Metronet allows for the centralized management of performance-heavy functions, unburdening the control units and making their computing power available for other functions, including their main purpose: to guarantee security. SECURITY OF THE SYSTEM The use of SSL communication protocols, combined with certificates issued by a world-famous certification authority, provides a safety profile at the same level of the solutions adopted by the activities of remote banking. In order to use the multilevel service (METRONET and METRONETCLUB), the panel must be registered to the platform by an authorized IESS installer. Some advanced features are only available for accounts created by installers who sign up for the METRONETCLUB platform.
