An overview of the most important functions:
- change of room temperature: Each time you press the "+"- or "-" button, you move the set value for the current room temperature one-half degree higher or lower.
- change of operating mode: Individual buttons allow you to change quickly between operation mode auto and the different manual modes heating, energy-saving and frost
- change of clock program of your heating system: You can quickly and conveniently set the switching times and the desired operating mode for each individual day of the week.
- change of the temperature level: You can easily change the temperature levels for the operating modes. Just call up "Temperature Level" in Settings, where you can set the temperature levels for the heating, energy-saving and frost operating modes.
- solar thermal system output: JunkersHome creates an overview of the cumulative kilowatt hours produced by your solar thermal system – for the day or the last month.
- fault messages: With them, you can quickly and easily identify faults in your heating system. JunkersHome also tells you what to do to repair the fault.

To use JunkersHome, you need:
- a heating system with controller compatible with JunkersHome
- communication module MB LAN (gateway) for communication between the network and heating control unit
- an existing LAN network (router with a free RJ45 connection)
- internet access for your router to reach your heating system from a location outside the house
- App JunkersHome
- Android smartphone with operating system version 4.0.3 or higher and a minimum resolution of 320 * 480 Pixel (Only devices with from manufacturer released operation systems will be supported)

The following controllers with a production date from September 2008 or later are JunkersHome-compatible if they are connected to the Junkers 2-wire bus for heating systems:
- room temperature controller FR 100, FR 120
- outside temperature-dependent controller FW 100, FW 120, FW 200 or FW 500
- remote control FB 100

Note: There may be additional costs for the Internet connection; an Internet flat rate is recommended.

Note: Feature updates also require an update of the gateway firmware. Please connect your gateway to the internet for at least 24 hour.

You can determine which controller your heating system is equipped with from your system's technical documents, or ask your Junkers heating system specialist.
