This app, in combination with the Internet Gateway module, allows you to view and control your pool system from anywhere in the world. The available features of this app depend upon your pool system’s configuration, but include: • View your pool’s current water temperature. • View and change your heater’s set-point temperature. • Turn on and off your pool equipment, including pumps, valves, blowers, and more. • Turn on and off your pool lighting, and change their colours. • Activate any of your customised Favourites.
