The Plugwise Home app allows local and remote control of the following systems: - Adam OT-thermostat upgrade kit; - Adam HA voor zone heating; - Anna wifi-thermostat; - Tom radiator valve; - Lisa zone control and display. Set up the gateway in the app while you are at home and connected to the same network as the gateway is connected to. In the app, you can view and set the temperature inside. You can also easily set a temperature schedule. Do you want to add Adam to the app? This is possible if you have installed firmware version 0.4.5 or newer. You can only set the temperature and a schedule if your thermostat supports this. Not sure if your thermostat is supported? Look at https://www.plugwise.com/en_US/products/adam. Do you want to add the thermostat Anna to the app? We support this from firmware version 1.8.17 and higher.
