Each has unique requirements and preferences for the best control interface. From a single button interface to an interactive floor plan, the eKeypad interface can be adapted to fit. Both stock and custom interfaces are available on all iOS platforms. The pre-built interface offers a large number of customizations and organization options.

ORGANIZATION AND CAPABILITIES To make larger integrated systems easier to use, eKeypad learns the equipment setup to optimized user interaction. eKeypad is not only aware of the systems configured, but also the capabilities of each individual item in the system. This allows for intelligent sorting and the display of item controls. By configuring multiple systems and using the profiles feature, items can be consolidated across systems, separated into separate views or any combination if the two.
