The administrators of a SOLO, meaning those who have connected to the device using the PIN code, can share access with a user in two ways:
- Sharing the PIN code
- Creating a sharing
1. Sharing the PIN code
For friends and family, you can share the PIN code of the device that you set during the configuration phase.
This way, they can have unlimited and unrestricted access to the openings, becoming themselves administrators.
This ensures complete control of the device and the shares (Attention: also with the possibility of revoking the permissions of the original administrator).
Just approach SOLO and press "I have purchased a 1Control device" and enter the PIN code set during the first installation.
2. Creating a sharing
Shares can only be created by administrators of the SOLO device and allow setting time or access constraints. To create a sharing, you do not need to be near the device, it can also be set remotely.
To create a sharing, open the main menu of the app by clicking on the gear icon in the top left and select "Shares". Choose your device from the list and click on the "Create new sharing" button.
In the next screen, you can choose a contact from your address book, or by clicking on the pencil icon in the top right, manually enter a phone number.
Proceeding to the next step, you can choose which accesses to enable (it is important to click on the access/automation icon), the validity period of the sharing, the weekly days, and time slots. You can also enable or disable remote opening for the user*.
By clicking on the confirmation button "Create sharing", the user will receive the sharing and will be enabled to open accesses with the limits set by the administrator.
For security reasons, at the first attempt of use, a pairing procedure will be done between the new user and the SOLO, subsequently the user in question can regularly use the sharing.
Device administrators can check and revoke each individual sharing created at any time.
*For remote opening, it is necessary to have installed the Wi-Fi accessory LINK, for more information visit the dedicated page: https://www.1control.it/link.php
