Appliances we connect
Supported devices
We currently support devices defined in the table below. The list is in a constant process of expansion.
Regarding warranty questions of the third party controlled appliances such as Truma or Alde heaters we hereby confirm that CaraControl does not affect any standard operation of these units and all the controlling is being done directly to the control panel and communicates via LIN-bus connector reserved for this purpose or uses infrared transmission, as such as for example your TV remote control.
