6.4 Pairing additional mobile devices with the timer-thermostat
The timer-thermostat 02911 can be controlled only with mobile devices that have been paired with the first
configuration or pairing procedure.
A new mobile device (on which the By-clima App has previously been installed) can be paired at any
time by using the By-clima App on the mobile device itself but only by also interacting with the local
interface of the timer-thermostat (see par. 9.11.5) and within the same WiFi network (you cannot pair
mobile devices remotely/over the Internet).
When pairing, you are prompted to enter a 4-digit PIN code to pair the mobile device with the timer-thermostat,
which can only be controlled if:
- the mobile device is paired with the timer-thermostat;
- the PIN code of the mobile device and that of the timer-thermostat coincide.
If you change the PIN of the timer-thermostat but not that of the tablet/smartphone, the mobile device (which
is still set to the old PIN) will no longer be able to manage the timer-thermostat; it will then be necessary to
update the PIN of the tablet/smartphone device(s).
CAUTION:
•
The PIN for accessing the timer-thermostat 02911 from your mobile device can only be changed with
the By-clima App.
•
The PIN code is very important because it protects the timer-thermostat from previously paired
mobile devices too (eg that of the installer). The end user is advised to change the default PIN code
so as to disable control of the device from all smartphones/tablets (even if already paired with the
device) that do not have the updated PIN code.
