5 Eltako quickcon® technology
This allows the simple connection of an Eltako GFVS Server to a Mobile Client without any knowledge
of how to handle IP address translations (e.g. DynDNS) or port blocking.
Important: Using the app creates data traffic which may entail additional costs
independent of the mobile radio contract.
Download the Eltako GFVS Tablet or the Eltako GFVS Mobile Client from the App Shop of your mobile radio
system (iPhone->iTunes, Android -> Google Play) and install it.
