Menu button

The Menu button should be used in the same way as on your Door Opener; to enter the settings menu, and to select different options.



Up & Down Buttons

The up and down buttons are used to move between options in the settings menu. They can also be used to manually open or close the door when the *OPEN* or *CLOSED* status message is showing.

The app communicates with your Door Opener unit every 5 minutes to keep you updated, but the Refresh button can be used to refresh the information at any time.

Tapping the EGGS icon takes you into the Egg Counter, where you can record how many eggs were laid today.

RADIO

Tapping the RADIO icon when it is red takes you into the Radio Communications settings. If the symbol is white and has a padlock symbol in the top left corner, this means it is locked; to enter the Radio Communications settings, navigate to "Misc Settings" > "Radio Comms".
