BluREMOTE
It works at any controlled portal, relay elevator or destination dispatch elevator to which a person has access, and it works across multiple sites, systems, and hardware. For destination dispatch elevators it even provides the elevator car assignment right on your mobile device. BluREMOTE can also be used as a remote control for reception areas, gates, parking garages, and visitors and is a more secure way to provide access because it creates an audit trail of the event. BluREMOTE is security design for convenience.

Search Criteria
When you open BluREMOTE it will scan your environment to ascertain where you are (geographical location, altitude, floor). You will only see points you have access to through your assigned Access Levels or Access Level Groups and you are within the distance the building determined you should be. No using BluREMOTE from the beach when you are on vacation.
As you can see in the iPhone screen images below you can easily select the Facility for your portals or elevators. If you have a large selection of Portals or Elevators to choose from, you can filter the list to just the few key Portals or Elevators you want for easy access, just fill in the search field. In the screenshot below you can see the search for floor and it brought up only those floor stops with the word floor in the name. The search will update the list of portals or elevator stops appropriate as you type. You can also choose to select the "Show All" button to see all the portals you have access to.
If you do not see a list of facilities select the radio button next to the "Show All" button.
Since BluREMOTE will know where you are it will populate the field next to the "Floor" button for where it thinks you are. The first few times you might need to change where it thinks you are. This will become accurate within a few tries, so shortly you do not need to set this.
Now select the portal or floorstop. You will get an access granted message for portals and elevators, for DDE elevators it will also tell you which elevator car to go to.
After your first day this will be very quick and you will be selecting only the floor stop you want to travel to.

Getting Started
When you navigate to the BluREMOTE Control screen (Control->BluREMOTE) for the first time you may be asked to select Portal or Elevator views and then the Facility. This is to set the exact view you want. Once this is set it will be your default configuration. The next time you navigate to BluREMOTE it will remember your settings you used last. If you do not get either the Portal/ Elevator selection or are not asked to select your System or Elevator, don't worry, it simply means that you need to select the "Radio button" for it to scan the area.
Controlling BluREMOTE
It should be no surprise that the hallmark of any access control system is the ability to control the flow of people through a system. This can be done with credentials and access rights, but there are certainly times where having direct control from your mobile device is key. This is where the BluREMOTE Control screen comes into play. With 3 clicks, this control screen enables the user to gain access. Select one portal or for elevators you can select the car for relay elevators or the floor stop for a DDE elevator.
