The Viessmann Vitotrol app

The Viessmann Vitotrol App allows you to remotely operate a Viessmann heating system with Vitotronic controls. The operation of the app is simple, easy and comfortable to use from anywhere and at any time of the day. In Addition to its operational features, the Vitotrol App offers a comprehensive context driven online help function.

In order to operate the Vitotrol App, a Viessmann boiler with Vitotronic 200 controller (see “Prerequisites” section for detailed controller type) needs to be connected via a Vitocom 100 LAN1 communication interface to the buildings Internet Router. If the Internet Router is configured as a DHCP server, no further configuration is required.

Once the user and the site is registered, the user will be able to view and control the boiler’s space heating and domestic hot water functions with a mobile device. In addition, the user will be notified should any fault condition occur with the heating system. In essence, this application is not only a very convenient operating tool for the building owner, it also provides service contractors with the ability to offer additional service and maintenance activities.
