Always connected
All you need is an Internet connection to quickly check and manage the operation of all your installations, anywhere and at any time.
Technology for everyone
Based on state-of-the-art technology, the DConnect system offers many advantages than typical BMS systems.
DConnect by DAB is available for Android (Google Play) and iOS (App Store). If you do not have a smartphone compatible with DConnect by DAB, you can still control your devices remotely using a PC or MAC: just go to the dconnect.dabpumps.com website and log in when prompted to do so (registration required).
No, there is no software program available. The DConnect service is only available through web browser (PC or MAC) or smartphone/tablet App (downloaded from Play Store or Apple Store), and requires an active Internet connection. This means that the software is always up to date, and connected devices can be controlled in real time.
It depends. Your products must be compatible: this section shows a full list of compatible products. If your products are in this list, all that is needed is to purchase DConnect Box and connect it to a modem (Ethernet cable or Wi-Fi connection) that gives access to the internet, and connect the devices to control using DConnect Box.
It means that the product is DConnect compatible. Only MCE-P, ADAC and EBox with the DConnect Ready label have DConnect compatible hardware. If your product does not have this label, it is possible to order a replacement “low voltage” card or the Ebox front panel. Make sure that you indicate the model of your product.
Any Wi-Fi modem can be used if the signal is strong enough. If not, you can use a 3G/4G modem (with 1 GB of traffic minimum) making sure that the 4G signal is present in the room (just check with a normal smartphone if you can browse the Internet from inside the room). If the signal is poor or absent, it is necessary to have a 4G modem with an external antenna to be placed near windows or entrance doors (on the surface).
DConnect Box is a more advanced product, mainly dedicated to installers or installations that require to control a large number of pumps both by number (up to 8) and by type (some circulator models are also supported). DConnect Box 2, on the other hand, is dedicated to the common user, supporting the control of up to 4 pumps of a smaller type (for example, does not support the Evoplus range). With DConnect Box 2 and a smartphone it is possible to view the pump settings when you are within the same local network. Both remote control products require the DConnect App (available on the App Store or Play Store).
The DConnect Box can be connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi or via Ethernet cable. When it is connected you can follow the instruction on the DConnect App to connect the DConnect Box 2 to the Dab Cloud.
Yes you can. After connecting the Ethernet cable to the modem/router and DConnect Box, simply complete the network configuration as indicated in the Instruction Manual.
If connection using a network cable is not possible, we recommend that you try Wi-Fi connection. DConnect Box has a function that automatically detects any available Wi-Fi networks. If the Wi-Fi network signal is not strong enough, this will be notified to the user. In such case we recommend the installation of a Wi-Fi signal repeater (which amplifies the Wi-Fi signal), available for purchase at most electronics shops.
On the DAB official website you can always find the latest versions of our products’ Instruction Manuals.
