SOLO is an innovative device designed to offer intuitive and uncomplicated control of gate or garage access through Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 4.0 technology.
An internet data connection is not required (does not use SIM or Wi-Fi) and this:
- always guarantees access even in the absence of connection
- allows you to have a completely wireless product that can be installed by anyone
- there are no costs or recurring fees (as happens for devices with SIM)
Bluetooth 4.0: SOLO Key Technology
The strategic choice of Bluetooth 4.0 as SOLO's fundamental technology not only guarantees practicality in use, but represents a crucial pillar for user safety. One of the most relevant features is the ability to allow access to the gate or garage even when the internet data connection is absent, mitigating the risk of being locked out of your property.
This safety feature is crucial, as even in situations where internet connectivity is unavailable, SOLO continues to operate via Bluetooth 4.0, ensuring users can open or close the gate without depending on a data connection. This means that even at times when the internet signal is absent or weak, access to the property is guaranteed reliably and without risk.
This combination of advanced technology and security represents one of SOLO's strengths, offering users not only convenience and convenience, but also the peace of mind of being able to access their home area or garage at any time, regardless of connection conditions.
Advantages of using bluetooth:
Solution for Remote Areas or Without Wi-Fi Coverage: SOLO is the ideal choice for situations where the gate or garage is located in remote areas or in places where the Wi-Fi signal is weak. This is particularly useful when the gate is located far from the Wi-Fi router or if the garage is underground.
Minimal Battery Consumption: Bluetooth 4.0 technology offers efficient operation and consumes a minimal amount of energy, ensuring long battery life of SOLO. This helps keep the device completely wireless and easy to use without the need for frequent battery replacement (which lasts more than 2 years with 10 openings per day).
Ease of Use without Installers: The absence of the need for an internet data connection makes SOLO accessible to anyone without requiring the intervention of an installer. This aspect contributes to greater convenience and comfort in using the device.
What features are available in bluetooth?
SOLO represents a reliable and convenient option for controlling access to your gate or garage without depending on an internet data connection. It is possible to set up shares, monitor the access history and open in proximity, all with the sole use of Bluetooth.
However, additional "smart" features such as voice commands, remote opening and Apple CarPlay / Android Auto require an internet connection to work. For this reason, to maintain the simplicity of installation and the guarantee of opening in the vicinity of SOLO, we have introduced LINK, a Smarthome Wi-Fi Hub. This is able to communicate automatically with the SOLO gate opener, enabling the "smart" functions mentioned above for all 1Control devices and functioning in parallel with normal Bluetooth opening.
