BMPRO Updates RVMaster to Make it Smarter
BMPRO is now offering the latest update to its smart RV system RVMaster, providing American RV and outdoor enthusiasts with more control and flexibility across the functionality of their RV than ever before, the company said, including bringing forward new features such as UX upgrades.
“RVMaster stands as BMPRO’s premier, ever-evolving system,” said CEO Louise Bayliss. “Our focus with this product is on providing continuous, consistent updates that help enhance the user experience for maximized control. The most recent upgrade brings improved UI that is created to provide the luxury of smart home technology onboard their mobile home, enabling them to access a range of additional functions through the RVMaster platform and experience a level of comfort previously unseen in the industry.”
Besides its compatibility with BMPRO’s advanced SmartConnect system, RVMaster’s new update harnesses the potential of an integrated platform, further enhancing its potential with new capabilities for centralized control.
RVMaster’s wall-mounted interface is now available in two options: as a controller powered by Android for the purpose of additional control and a monitor to multiple RV parameters. Users have the option to set up the system as either an intuitive touch screen, or as a compact LCD display with control buttons, both backed by the RVMaster app that can be installed on up to four mobile devices.
The RVMasterNode is a power and RV management system designed to communicate via Bluetooth with the controller or display, wall switches and mobile phones, to receive commands that control RV features and accessories. Two node configurations are now available, providing the manufacturer with flexibility to either opt for a product with extended features and functions or for a more compact solution.
The node allows for wired connection to lights, motor controllers, awnings and slides, generators and HVAC. The new update also sees the addition of Bluetooth connection to gas, temperature and tire pressure sensors, thus integrating RVMaster Smart RV System with BMPRO’s SmartConnect range of Bluetooth sensors for further system flexibility.
RVMaster is designed to provide users with control over their RV via the wall mounted interface, number of in-built switches and/or from the palm of their hands through a singular, user-friendly app.
BMPRO said it has gone to great lengths to ensure that smart technologies can be integrated across a number of different settings, essentially creating a “smart home on wheels.” RVMaster will now also integrate with a number of third-party technologies, from organizations such as Winegard and Lippert. These integrations will grant RV users additional control over functions like Wi-Fi or electrical levelling from their smartphone, tablet or RV console, using the same RVMaster app.
“Dealerships and end users alike will reap the benefits of integration. With access to RVMaster, Bluetooth add-ons from their local dealership provides end users with useful technology upgrades that will help them achieve extra levels of comfort in the great outdoors,” said Bayliss.
“Our work with Thor Motor Coach has adapted the RVMaster to design their specifications, giving end users a sleek, up market feeling across the dashboard and user interface,” he said. “BMPRO has been able to configure RVMaster in a number of different arrangements to fit the needs of the RV model and the tastes of the end user.”
Despite the brand’s strong relationship with Jayco USA and Thor Motor Coach, BMPRO has made it clear they have no plans to change their position as an independent provider to OEM companies.
