Description
1Control SOLO EVO is an electronic device that allows the
operation of a radio-controlled automation, such as a gate or
a garage, using a smartphone. SOLO EVO is able to copy the
automation remote control and therefore to control it behaving like
the original remote control.
Control of an automation
SOLO EVO is able to copy the automation remote control and
therefore to control it behaving like the original remote control.
It is able to copy all fixed-coded remote controls and most rolling-
code remote controls, in the 433.0 MHz to 868.0 MHz frequency
bands, using the AM and FM modulations. The old low-frequency
remote controls, called quartz, are not compatible.
The complete list of compatible remote controls is available on the
1Control website or in the Complete Guide.
To control an automation, it is sufficient to copy a single remote
control, it is not necessary to copy the remote controls of all users.
SOLO EVO communicates with smartphone using the Bluetooth
LE 4 protocol. Therefore it is not necessary to have an Internet
connection to open gate and garage.
Operating distance
The max distance between SOLO EVO and an automation to
be controlled varies according to the type of radio-control used.
Normally such distance is between 20 and 40 meters.
The max distance between SOLO EVO and a smartphone varies
according to the model of smartphone used and is normally about
15-20 meters.
To maximize the range of SOLO EVO it is advisable to place it at
least 1 meter from the ground and in a place where there are no
obstacles between the user and SOLO EVO.
Reinforced concrete walls or metal boxes can weaken or block the
SOLO EVO signal.
Operating conditions
SOLO EVO is resistant to atmospheric agents, is rainproof,
snowproof and resistant to sunrays. It is IP66 certified.
Security
When using SOLO EVO for the first time, an 8-digit numeric PIN
code must be set. This PIN must be kept secret. PIN code holders
are considered administrators of the device. It is possible to reset
the PIN by performing a factory reset of SOLO EVO.
The SOLO EVO administrator can invite other users to use an
automation, without giving them the PIN code, using the sharing
features offered by the app.
The communication between SOLO EVO and a smartphone is
protected by latest-generation security algorithms based on public
keys and end-to-end symmetric encryption with ephemeral keys.
The communication between SOLO EVO and an automation
uses the same security algorithms as the copied remote control.
Therefore the degree of security offered in this communication is
the same as that of the remote control.
Power supply
SOLO EVO can be powered using 1.5V alkaline type C batteries
(already included in the package) or by external power supply with
voltage between 12V and 24V DC or AC.
SOLO EVO has a maximum current consumption of 100mA.
Battery power supply
To power SOLO EVO using batteries, set the jumper selector on the
board to the “BT” position and remove the battery protection tab.
Close the device using the 4 screws provided in the package.
The batteries can be replaced when they are flat. SOLO EVO keeps
the copied remote controls and shared accesses in memory even
when it is not energized.
You can check the charge status of the batteries using the app.
Battery life varies according to the number of drives (openings or
closures) made:
12-24V AC/DC power supply
To power SOLO EVO through an external 12-24V source it is
necessary to set the jumper selector on the board to the “AL”
position.
The package includes a cable that can be used to connect the
power supply of SOLO EVO. The supplied cable has a length of 4
meters and is resistant to water and atmospheric agents, therefore
it can be used outdoors.
The wide supply voltage range accepted by SOLO EVO makes it
possible to connect to the power supply provided by most of the
