Ecolink Z-Wave Long Range Garage Door Controller
Product Description
The Ecolink Z-Wave Long Range Garage Door Controller adds remote Z-Wave control and status monitoring to your garage door operator in order to include your garage door into your smart home or smart security network. Once paired with a compatible Z-Wave hub, the Ecolink Garage Door Controller and its included 345MHz tilt sensor can report the current status of your garage door, allow you to remotely Open or Close the garage door from your mobile device, and include your garage door into a smart automated scene/routine to automatically open or close the garage door as you leave or return home. This updated Garage Door Controller model also includes a built-in temperature sensor which can be used to trigger other automation or security scenes.
The Ecolink Garage Controller is compatible with most legacy garage door openers and nearly any Z-Wave or Z-Wave Plus device and system hub. The Ecolink Garage Controller utilizes both Z-Wave 800 and Z-Wave LR wireless technology to provide reliable wireless connectivity and increased encryption protection as a part of your Z-Wave network. Users can choose between standard Z-Wave mesh connectivity that will increase the signal strength and overall range of their Z-Wave network or Z-Wave LR connectivity for long range direct communication between the Garage Controller and a compatible Z-Wave LR hub up to 2200ft (670) away.
- Z-Wave and Z-Wave LR garage door controller adds remote connectivity to a garage door, also reports ambient air temperature
- Compatible with existing Z-Wave and Z-Wave Plus series devices, controllers, and hubs, as well as Z-Wave LR compatible hubs
- 345Mhz Clearsky® protocol tilt sensor provides secure shortwave transmissions with the Garage Controller
- Audible alerts and flashing light warnings prior to open/close door operation
- Works with SmartThings, Ezlo, Qolsys, 2GIG, Prima by Napco, and Interlogix networks
- Supports both standard Z-Wave Plus mesh or Z-Wave LR star wireless protocols
- Standard Z-Wave Plus mesh range reaches up to 130 feet (40m) line of sight to the nearest Z-Wave receiver or hub
- Z-Wave LR protocol uses direct transmissions between the device and hub to reach up to 2200ft (670 m) line of sight at the cost of no signal repeating
- Z-Wave Smart Start technology pairs new devices quickly and S2 framework ensures enhanced security
Why You Would Use This Product:
The Ecolink Z-Wave Long Range Garage Door Controller pairs with a Z-Wave and Z-Wave LR enabled home automation controller or security panel to provide remote access and control of your garage door. If you have a detached garage or secondary garage, the Ecolink Garage Door Controller can help provide realtime status updates and remote operation of the garage without you needing to be there. Once this controller is integrated into your Z-Wave network, you'll know the open/close status of the garage door and be able to control it via your Z-Wave hub's app. So for example, if you left your home in a rush to go to work and realized you accidentally left the garage door open you'll be able to close it from a remote location.
