frogContact5
Multifunctional 5-channel contact module to query low-voltage contacts
Multifunctional 5-channel contact module to query low-voltage contacts. 5 inputs in 3 galvanic circuits. Featuring integrated logic module with comfort and timer functions.
The small green control modules, called frogs, are the heart of every frogblue system and form the basis of the Bluetooth®-based smart building solution from frogblue. Frogs can switch, dim, measure, open doors or react to buttons, switches and window contacts.
Connected to the mains or battery-powered, they are linked together with “virtual cables” via the frogblue Bluetooth® mesh network. They forward messages and thus extend the range. Data transfer between the frogs is always encrypted (128 bit), and this in addition to Bluetooth®. frogs are smart, packed with innovative functions, are very easy to configure and do not require a central unit or control cabinet. With a power consumption of just 0.2 watts, they are also extraordinarily energy-conscious.
Installed in a deep flush-mounted back box (recommended socket depth: 63 mm) behind any conventional switch/button, junction box, weatherproof outdoor socket, roller shutter housing or lamp outlet, the frogContact5 is a multifunctional 5-channel input module for querying low voltage contacts, such as reed contacts or any other potential-free contacts. In the event of a fire alarm, the frogContact5 connected to a smoke alarm can communicate with all other frogs in the system via Bluetooth® and automatically control shading and lighting.
The frogs can be controlled with the frogblue HomeApp via smartphone or tablet (iOS and Android), frogDisplay, frogKey or simply via the conventional switch/button connected to a frog. We always recommend buttons, as the full range of functions can be used with individual and different touch patterns, such as double or triple clicks, etc.
