About

CU Companion

Read full description

Use these big buttons on your smartphone to send SMS commands to your entry system to open your entrances. Add as many systems as you like. Program your system via the same app - you can add/remove authorised users, time profiles, timed latch and exit release functions all within the same app. Open your entrances in just two taps of your touchscreen. NOTE: You will need to liaise with your entry system installer to have your smartphone added to your entry system's authorised list. Multi user sites may disallow the use of hold open commands or all commands. In which case, setting those commands in this app will not make them work. SAFETY AND SECURITY: Before setting up a hold open command, please consider the consequences of being able to permanently leave your entrance open at the mere tap of a touch screen. Before using this app, please consider the implications of opening your entrance by the tap on a touchscreen when not in sight of, nor in communication with your gates or barriers.
