Ghost Controls Multi Connect Kit for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Access - for Ghost Controls Automatic Gate Openers -AXMC-R

My Ghost Story UpgradeThis review is for a purchase to upgrade to a new Ghost Solar Power Dual Gate controller with the upgraded circuit board. The first generation did not have the ability to add the Ghost Controls Multi Connect Kit which requires a new circuit board. With a quick install we can now open our gates from anywhere, Nice!Note: make sure you order the correct parts. This is only for the new systems with a red circuit board.Installation: was very simple. Following the instructions, both from the manual and videos made everything very easy. Make sure the system is turned off. The hardest part was getting the wire into the box through a weatherproof seal. I managed to get it through with the solar wires. Plug in, turn on, download the app, follow the instruction and voila! Well, getting the app connected to the gate is a little bit more work. Just make sure the GHOST multi connect light is on and app will guide you through the restPros: This works amazing! The app has so many features:Displays a history logs (only from administration login )Displays battery levelsMode display. Displays the current mode and you can change modes easily.Visually shows the gate open, closed or opening/closingShare a key with anyone and control their accessSettings for Bluetooth, WiFi, InternetSettings for notification, auto close, battery, system state, lock controls, diagnostic, and so much more.Cons:You can only look at the history log from the Admin phone. I shared a key with my wife and gave her admin level security but she and no-one else can see the log. Not a bi deal but this could be improved.I did notice that not all of their circuit boards are created equal. If you ordered a single, it was the exact board as the others but it did not have a solar power supply or a second gate wire connection. If I bought a single and later decided to make it a double or change to solar, I could not. I know Ghost makes more money this way but versatility and reliability is what I am buying in for.

I have used a competitor wireless control for my gate and it could not connect to my WiFi. This device connected easily after some difficulty with the procedure. Even at the farthest point in my yard it still works well and give much more information about the health of the system. It is powered from the controls and is plug and play on the red Ghost control board. The unit is sealed and mounts next to the controller. You must make a new whole to past the cable through a supplied grommet to the internal jack in the controller.

Excellent functionality but I’ll be surprised if it weathers well. The iPhone app that goes along with this allows control of the gate via Bluetooth, WiFi and/or internet. It also allows to share and control access with other users, including custom configurations per user for access method, time restrictions, and notification.

This little gadget to my gate makes life so much easier. From being able to open and close the gate on my phone to troubleshooting, it’s well worth the money!!

The ghost 'phone' connect kit works great. control the gate from iOS blue tooth.we don't connect to the web, can't comment on that part. likely is good as well.

Easy install, reliable and works from 100 feet away. I would not leave this out of your gate purchase.

Best addition to our automatic gate. Syncs to the phone and allows friends and family to visit easily. Works well.

Plugged it in. Works great. We have a solar panel WiFi at our gate. And it hooked right up to it. I’m able to open it from states away. I love the app and I’m so glad I swapped and got this thing over the mighty mule
