About

GNC Neeos

Features
Read full description

Neeos allows users to register their own account to which they can assign their tanks and control them at any time and place thanks to the dedicated cloud. Each tank can be composed of several synchronised ceiling lights. It will be possible to control all lighting parameters both locally and remotely. In the APP there are numerous scenarios for managing your own reef with the possibility of customisation. The creation and export/import of new customised scenarios is also possible. The original scenarios provided by GNC are configurable in their factory state and therefore always available even if modified by the user. The scenarios are self-adapting according to the customer's needs. The algorithm allows all times to be automatically parameterised when preferred sunrise and sunset are chosen. There are extraordinary effects such as clouds, lightning and live controls. Operating temperature control of all ceiling lights in the system, local time synchronisation and permanent storage of configurations. A 2.4 Ghz wifi home network is required. [:mav: 1.3.2]
