The Smoke Detectors feature in the Smart PIERRE app provides crucial monitoring for fire safety. Users can manage the Smoke detectors from both the Dashboard and the Menu
Key benefits of the Smoke detector include:
1. Status Visibility:
- The status of the Smoke detector is shown on the Dashboard with a green dot indicating the detector is Active and a gray dot showing it is Not Active, providing real-time alerts and ensuring a rapid response in case of emergency.
2. Long Press for Advanced Options:
- By long-pressing the detector icon, users can access the Edit and Used In tabs for customization. The Edit tab allows users to change the name and photo of the detector, while the Used In tab shows all automations where the detector is integrated.
3. Automation Integration:
- Smoke detectors can be included in automation for enhanced safety. For example, when smoke is detected, the system can automatically activate the alarm and turn on all lights, ensuring safety measures are triggered immediately.
The Smoke Detectors feature integrates seamlessly with the PIERRE smart home system, providing a reliable and automated approach to fire safety while enhancing the overall security of your home.
