The app is designed for quick on-site configuration via Bluetooth Low Energy. Once paired with the device, you can set up inputs and outputs, define thresholds and conditions, customize message texts, manage authorized numbers and choose notification methods.

It is the ideal solution for installers, maintenance staff and facility managers who need to reduce response times, increase safety and keep control of unattended installations. Combining ease of use with advanced functions, the app takes only minutes to set up. The interface is intuitive and straightforward, commands are clear and require no specific training. switchButler works with both small installations and more complex systems, offering flexibility and security with controlled access through authorized numbers, event tracking and customizable parameters. To use it, a compatible ELBRO device with a SIM card enabled for SMS is required (voice needed if you want call activation).
