The myTechnician® Mobile Application is one of the best tools that a professional oil heat technician can have at a customer job site by identifying problems, reducing job time, and eliminating call backs. The app provides the technician with a wireless Bluetooth connection to a Beckett® burner fitted with the latest generation of advanced oil primary controls, the new GeniSys® 7565 120V Oil Burner Advanced Primary Control. With a local connection to the technician’s smart device, the app enables the technician to quickly program burner settings, view control history, diagnose current faults, and evaluate component trends. For the legacy GeniSys® 7505 120V Oil Burner Control, the BeckettLink® Pro Contractor Tool 7652 will provide the technician with the same ease of programming and diagnostics.
