Now even better: With the B.E.G. One app, your smartphone becomes a remote control for all B.E.G. products. The new, intuitive design allows for quick orientation. The bidirectional B.E.G. products can also be programmed with this app. In addition, a cloud connection now allows the exchange of information and collaboration of several employees on a project. Try it out right away! The B.E.G. remote control app "One" is the easiest way to program all remote-controlled occupancy and motion detectors, twilight switches, luminaires and emergency lights from B.E.G. (Brück Electronic GmbH). All products in one app: that is B.E.G. One. IR adapter To use the app, the B.E.G. IR adapter (audio) or the B.E.G. IR adapter (BLE) is required. The IR adapter must be charged before use. When using the B.E.G. IR adapter (audio), the volume must be set to the maximum. Structure In the user-friendly navigation, the user can search for either the desired remote control or the product to be programmed. When reading the bidirectional products, the appropriate interface appears automatically. Descriptions of the individual parameters and commands are provided to explain the respective function. Uni- and bidirectional devices B.E.G.’s unidirectional products can be programmed via the remote-control interface. The desired values can be sent to the product individually or in a selection. B.E.G.’s bidirectional products can be read out additionally, i.e., the values stored in the device are displayed in the app. These can then be sent individually, in a selection or completely. Data exchange via cloud Via the cloud, it is possible to create projects in the app, work on them together within the company and exchange information about their current status live within the team. For this purpose, project data is temporarily stored on a cloud server. During or after the successful implementation of a project, this data can also be downloaded as a PDF for documentation purposes.
