The special IQONTROL NEO plugin includes the activation of the necessary AIO CREATOR NEO Plugins, so that all your devices used in IQONTROL NEO can also be used with AIO CREATOR NEO. This generally includes the NEO Plugin AIO GATEWAYs as well as an icon set in the IQONTROL NEO design. If you are using a V5 Plus with unlocked USB extensions with IQONTROL NEO, you will also receive a corresponding AIO CREATOR NEO Plugin for the IQONTROL NEO extensions you have purchased (EnOcean, Z-Wave, Zigbee). All Plugins activated via the IQONTROL NEO Plugin will also receive 12 months SUS. Valid cloud services are also included.


Is there an upgrade option from IQONTROL to IQONTROL NEO?
