The SmartView app is used for controlling the Senticon's Intelligent Room Controllers and Smart Room Sensors. With the SmartView app you can change your room settingsand monitor the room measurements. For example with the TCR/QCR controllers you can change the (heating/cooling) setpoint, operating mode (occupied/unoccupied/night), fan speed and analyse the current demand. The SmartView app connects to the device using Bluetooth connection of you iPhone/iPad. Once connected to the device, and if first time, the SmartView interrogates the device and automatically builds the view required to control your room. Once the configuration has been created, next time upon connection you can immediately start to change the settings.
