frogClock
Repeater for the frogblue Bluetooth® network. With integrated time buffering (RTC) for 120 hours (5 days) during mains power outage.
Description
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. Our 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 the 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, this frog acts as a repeater for the frogblue Bluetooth® mesh network.
Furthermore, the frogClock has an integrated time buffer (RTC) for 120 hours (5 days) in case of mains power failure.
Installation of a frogClock is strongly recommended in every frogblue project. This ensures that all frogblue components installed in the system have a synchronised and correct system time.
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.
