IR remote controller

Updated: 2 Nov 2024
Description

The IR Remote Controller section in the Smart Pierre app allows users to control air conditioners via the app. The controller can be enhanced by adding a temperature sensor to the thermostat to display the current room temperature. If no temperature sensor is added, the display will only show the target temperature that the air conditioner is set to reach. The IR Remote Controller is added as a Wave device. 

Key Features:

1. Device Control:

  • It is accessible from both the Dashboard and the I/O list, with a corresponding picture for easy identification. Control is direct from the Dashboard with On, Off, and Auto buttons.

2. Advanced Settings:

  • A long press on the IR Remote Controller card opens various settings tabs, such as Mode (heating or cooling), Intensity, and Edit (for changing the name, picture, mode, and other parameters). Users can also set minimum and maximum temperatures, target temperature steps, and select the temperature format (Fahrenheit or Celsius). If a temperature sensor is added, the current room temperature will be displayed.

3. Automation and Scenarios:

  • The IR Remote Controller can be automated, allowing for scenarios such as turning off the air conditioner when a window contact sensor detects an open window, or setting the air conditioner to heat on specific days and times (e.g., Saturday and Sunday from 8 AM to 3 PM). These automations and scenarios ensure optimal comfort and energy efficiency.

4. Automation and Used In Tab:

  • The device includes dedicated tabs for Automation and Used In, providing full control and flexibility in creating automated routines and checking where the controller is used within the system.

The IR Remote Controller section offers comprehensive control over climate devices, ensuring customizable settings, automation options, and real-time temperature monitoring when a sensor is added.
