WattBox has just rolled out two exciting updates to the OvrC platform, designed to give integrators more control, flexibility, and efficiency when managing WattBox deployments.
WattBox Faceplates: Now Recognized as Individual Devices
Integrators can now manage faceplates directly within OvrC, reducing complexity in installations when working with the WB-800-FP (Standalone Device) and WB-800ICH1U-IPVM-8 models.
This improvement allows integrators clearer visibility and easier access for setup and management, independent of the connected WattBox units.
Advanced Faceplate Button Customization
Each button on the faceplate—B1, B2, B1+B2, and Power—can now execute specific actions across up to three connected WattBox devices. With these new actions, users can perform Discreet On and Off, Reset, and Disable (for added security).
This customization enables integrators to create powerful automation sequences, allowing users to control multiple outlets or devices at the press of a button. This means greater flexibility and control for end-users while also decreasing the number of service calls needed for adjustments.
To get started with these updates, refer to the OvrC guide: https://help.snapone.com/ovrc-ug/Content/WB-OVRC/General%20Settings/Buttons%20Configuration.htm?Highlight=WattBox%20Button
