HCA for Android

As described in the Client-Server chapter, the HCA Server loads and executes your design. On

any other Windows computer on your network you can access the server using HCA in client mode

and use HCA to work with your design.

In addition to this, you can also access the HCA Server using an application written for the

Android Operating System running on Smart Phones. We call this application

HCA for Android.

By using HCA for Android and the HCA Server you can access your home from any location

around the world as long as you have access to the internet.

However, before even considering installing and using

HCA for Android it is first necessary to

install HCA, configure the HCA Server, and use HCA in client mode to test your work.

Also,

HCA for Android uses all the setting that configures the Control Interface so working with

that as well is also strongly suggested.
