OVERVIEW
New Wireless BLACKMAX digital manifolds can be used as conventional, stand-alone
manifolds or can also be used with a free APP allowing a mobile device (running on
iOS or Android platforms) to communicate directly with and control select functions
on these models remotely. The resulting APP provides the HVAC/R technician with the
convenience of running and monitoring a BLACKMAX digital manifold (from up to 300
feet away), while also providing additional capabilities not found in non-wireless versions
(such as comprehensive views of system measurements, graphical depictions of test
functions, data logging, and more). If your mobile device is NOT available, your wireless
manifold may be operated as a stand alone device using the yellow keypad.
