So how does this help me?
Have you ever had a piece of production equipment you are responsible for fixing? Then you know that speed is everything! With Airconsole, all you need to do is turn it on, plug it in, and access it with a smartphone, tablet, or PC. You can connect wirelessly over Bluetooth, peer-to-peer, or infrastructure wireless.
Imagine how quickly you can be connected to a device with an Airconsole and a tablet. It only takes seconds; you don’t have to be next to the device you are servicing.
Airconsole can be charged and powered through its micro USB port; its low power consumption means you can use a regular phone charger.
Put all these features together, and you have a highly portable, versatile, and efficient tool to make your life easier!
