DTrol turns your iPhone and iPad into a fast, reliable, two-way remote for your network-connected NAD and Anthem A/V processors and receivers — controlling power, mute, volume, source, and tuner presets on all your zones. That's it — and that's probably all you need most of the time. DTrol is a zone controller: it focuses on the functions you reach for every day and does them well — just like remotes used to be. **Control Every Zone** Power, mute, volume, source, and tuner presets — zone by zone, across multiple processors and receivers. **Make It Yours** Rename zones and sources, adjust their details, and set up links that launch your source apps. Changes live in DTrol only — nothing on your equipment is modified. **Two-Way and Live** DTrol shows the real state of your equipment, not just the last button you pressed. It stays in sync with what's playing and lets you know if a device stops responding. **Direct and Private** DTrol talks to your equipment directly over your home network. There's no account, nothing in the cloud, and no personal data collected. Your setup stays on your device. **Your Setup Carries Over** Upgrading from an earlier version of DTrol? Your servers, zones, and settings come with you automatically — nothing to set up again. **Supports** - Known to support: NAD T175, T175 HD, T765, T775, T785, T187, T777, M15, M15 HD; Anthem AVM 50v and Statement D2v (and variants - the legacy AVM control protocol) - Designed to also support: NAD T755; Anthem AVM 20, AVM 30, AVM 40, AVM 50 - Likely supports other models that speak the same NAD or Anthem legacy protocols - Your processor or receiver must be reachable on your home network — via its Ethernet port if it has one, or through a device that bridges your network to its RS-232 port, such as the Global Caché iTach IP2SL, iTach WF2SL, or Flex - Controlled devices must have a static IP address — this keeps DTrol fast and stable. If a device's IP address changes, re-add it in DTrol. - For more help with network configuration, see the support page: https://dtrol.fastfiveproducts.com/ **Setup** With your processor/receiver and your iPhone or iPad on the same network, tap "+" in DTrol to add your equipment as a DTrol "Server" — you'll need its static IP address and port. DTrol queries the device and sets up your Zones and Sources automatically; afterward you can adjust Zone names, Source names, and other details in Settings. DTrol is free. It requires iOS 18 and a local-network connection to your equipment. DTrol and its author have no affiliation with NAD Electronics, an international division of Lenbrook Industries Limited ("NAD"), or with Anthem. This app is not endorsed by, supported by, or in any other way connected with NAD or Anthem. NAD and Anthem are trademarks of their respective owners.

Does your controller drift, miss presses, or behave differently from one game to the next? MilliLog shows you exactly what it is sending. Turn every controller input into visible, measurable data. Watch buttons, sticks, triggers, the D-pad, touchpad, and gyroscope in real time, then record a millisecond-accurate log when you need evidence you can inspect or share. FREE TO DOWNLOAD Everything you need to check one controller is free: the live view, millisecond logs, sound feedback, and the React game with Game Center leaderboards. The free version never expires: no trial, no time limit, no ads, no account. DIAGNOSE CONTROLLER PROBLEMS • Spot stick drift and dead zones in the live stick view. • Catch missed, delayed, or unexpected inputs. • Check trigger travel, motion data, touchpad events, and battery level. • Hear inputs as they happen with optional sound feedback. NATIVE AND PRECISE MilliLog is built natively on Apple's GameController framework, with no web views or extra layers in between. Each button press is timestamped with the system's high-resolution clock the moment it reaches the app, before anything is drawn on screen. FULL VERSION: TEST MORE THAN BUTTONS One optional purchase unlocks the rest of the toolkit: • Vibration at the intensity you choose, on all motors or each handle. • Six haptic oscillator patterns: Fast, Medium, Slow, Step, Random, and Ramp. • DualSense adaptive trigger force on L2 and R2, with Constant, Weapon, Vibration, and Slope effects. • Light-bar color on supported controllers. • Several controllers at the same time, in the live view and the log. • React local multiplayer for up to four players. • Export logs as CSV or JSON for troubleshooting, QA reports, spreadsheets, or your own analysis. PLAY REACT Put your reflexes to the test in a built-in reaction game. Sign in to Game Center to submit your best times and streaks to the leaderboards. MilliLog works with controllers supported by Apple's GameController framework, including DualSense, DualShock 4, Xbox Wireless Controller, and many MFi-compatible gamepads. Made for developers, QA testers, repair technicians, hardware enthusiasts, and players who want answers before replacing a controller. Also available on Mac.
