Echo Mobile Brake Control Using One Control Auto
The Echo® mobile trailer brake controller is truly a brake control for the modern age. It plugs into a vehicle and wirelessly connects to a smartphone, allowing users to control and monitor all trailer brake activity right from a device. It comes with a customizable app for Apple or Android phones, a portable design to easily switch between vehicle-trailer combinations, and a durable, weather-resistant construction.
Most things in this day and age can be accessed or controlled from a smartphone. With the Echo®, that includes trailer brakes. Echo® is powered by a Bluetooth-enabled system that connects right to a smartphone. A phone becomes the brake control monitoring unit in the cab of the vehicle. There is no need for extra modules, controls, buttons, or knobs.
The Echo® mobile trailer brake controller has one of the easiest installations in the industry. It simply plugs into the standard 7-way RV blade socket at the rear of a vehicle and provides a socket to plug in the trailer harness. It fits into the connection, going between the vehicle and trailer plugs, and it is completely non-invasive. It also features automatic calibration to help eliminate setup requirements.
The Echo® trailer brake controller comes with a custom-designed app that can be downloaded for iOS or Android OS phones. With this app, the wireless brake control can connect to a smartphone and display brake control settings and activity. It also sends status updates and allows users to receive incoming calls while the app is running. Note: If the Bluetooth connection is lost, the brake controller will continue to function safely using the most recently programmed settings.
With its compact design and simple plug-and-play installation, the Echo® is extremely portable. Users can easily transfer it between vehicles and use it with multiple trailers if the vehicle and trailer have a 7-way RV blade connector. The Echo® Smart Control app allows users to store multiple vehicle-trailer profiles, making it ideal for commercial fleets.
Because the Echo® mobile trailer brake controller is made to be outside the vehicle, we engineered it for maximum weather resistance. It is constructed with a potted enclosure, meaning the inside of the unit is filled with epoxy resin that seals off the internal components from moisture and the elements. This ensures long-lasting operation despite rain, snow, dirt, mud, and more. The Echo® also has a retention strap and locking tab for connecting to the 7-way RV blade vehicle socket. The strap and tab help maintain a strong connection, keeping the unit firmly installed.
The Echo® mobile brake controller operates using a triple-axis motion-sensing accelerometer -- an integrated circuit that produces smooth, safe stops every time. It is compatible with two to four trailer brakes (one to two axles) and can be used with low-voltage or PWM wiring systems. Echo® is also compatible with cruise control and ABS brakes and has built-in reverse-polarity protection and short-circuit protection. It is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
