System architecture
The architecture includes three macrosystems:
1.
4HEATModule ( Wikey or Pinkey ): hardware device that interacts with the
TiEmme electronic control board and the local Wi-Fi router;
2.
SERVER CLOUD: web server infrastructure that allows data storage and works as a stellar hub
for remote communication;
3.
4HEAT: smartphone application available on Google Play Store and App Store for free, which
allows the user to interact with the heating system.
Local call and remote connection
Local connection
The connection between the 4HEATModule ( Wikey or Pinkey )
and the APP is made over the home Wi-Fi network, only if both
are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
Remote connection
We speak of remote connection when, at the time
of using the App, the user is away from home.
In this case, the App uses your Smartphone's
data coverage and the Cloud Server allows signal
triangulation to remotely manage the Module.
Remote connection times may vary depending on
network
data
traffic,
network
connection
conditions and traffic to the server. In the worst
case, connection can be up to 5 minutes late.
