Introduction >
Pre-installed devices
One of the following devices will be lent to each dwelling unit in which a smart home is installed as incidental equipment.
■ Caution
Pre-installed devices are pre-configured to work with HOMETACT before you move in.
There are instructions on how to reset the device in the manual of the device itself, but please do not reset the device.
Resetting the device will also reset the linkage with HOMETACT. If reset, it will need to be reconfigured by the installer and the cost will be borne by the tenant. Please understand this in advance.
●Knowledge

It can be unlocked by many methods such as IC cards, smartphones, cylinder locks, and PINs, freeing you from the hassle of carrying keys every day.
