RESCUE® Select PRO Programming App Used with RESCUE Select programming tool to configure motors via Bluetooth. The RESCUE Select PRO Programming App streamlines programming of the RESCUE Select Truck Stock motor. Developed for use in residential and light commercial blower motor replacement applications, the motor and programming app work in tandem to help HVACR service contractors: • Identify an original blower motor’s particular horsepower ratings and operating parameters (ex. torque load, fan speed, rotation direction) • Program an in-stock replacement motor to mimic that original performance profile. • Stock a smaller range of aftermarket motors and use them to replace nearly any original blower motor or other electrically-powered device or system. • Program and install a blower motor directly at the point of replacement, versus off site or in the shop. • Customize or develop new performance profiles that match special or unique application requirements. The RESCUE Select Programming App is driven by a continuously updated database populated with thousands of OEM motor profiles. Powered by a robust, cloud-based web service, the RESCUE Select Programming App can be accessed via any smartphone or compatible Wi-Fi-enabled device.
