The FRITZ!Box is one of the most commonly purchased routers in Germany. If you have one of these routers, it will be really easy to control and automate the drive in your roller shutter. You just need the BoxCTRL drives from Becker. This new Becker-developed system communicates directly with your router, making it extra convenient to automate and control your roller shutter via the FRITZ!App SmartHome. Or via FRITZ! push-button. Or your FRITZ!Fon. Or Alexa and Google Assistant. Either way, it’ll always be a pleasant experience.
NEW: Do you already have motorised roller shutters or blinds, but don't want to retrofit an expensive smart home control centre? Then we have the perfect solution: the new VarioControl VC420 DECT radio receiver. Once installed, the radio receiver instantly establishes a connection between the drive and the FRITZ!Box, transforming the previously wired drives into individually controllable radio drives.
Lighting can also be controlled via DECT:
Another new product is the LightControl LC422 DECT radio receiver, which allows light sources to be fully controlled via the FRITZ!Box, e.g. via the FRITZ!App Smart Home. The radio receiver enables lighting to be integrated into the FRITZ!Box home automation system. It can be installed in a deep flush-mounted switch box behind the control element and rounds off the DECT range.
Because it's easier! While other smart home enthusiasts spend a lot of money on a gateway, with a suitable FRITZ!Box you already have a command centre for your roller shutter control. All drives are integrated into the automation system right from the start. BoxCTRL drives and radio receivers from Becker can be controlled entirely according to your wishes, e.g. via:
- FRITZ!DECT 440 radio button
- FRITZ!App Smart Home
- FRITZ!Fon X6 / C6 / C5
- or a wired single-button pushbutton to match your switch range.
Control roller blinds, Venetian blinds and lighting via your router? Smart!
With the FRITZ!Box, you not only have a router at home, but also the foundation for a smart home system. With the right FRITZ!Box and the FRITZ!App Smart Home, FRITZ! Smart Home devices can be controlled from home and on the go.
The right FRITZ!Box: All DECT-enabled device versions from FRITZ!OS 7.20 and higher are suitable for operation with a BoxCTRL drive. The VC420 DECT and LC422 DECT radio receivers are compatible with DECT ULE HAN FUN-enabled FRITZ!Boxes from FRITZ!OS version 8.20 and higher.
