FAQ

What do I need to set it up?

All you need is:

A Wi-Fi Router with an active internet connection
A Alexa device (eg. Echo, Echo dot)
A Homeemity device

It’s an easy step by step process. Just connect to the Wi-Fi network called “HOMEEMITY_XXXX" and a configuration panel should open automatically. If not, open the web address http://10.1.1.1 and follow the steps. After that, open the Alexa App on your phone, search for the HOMEEMITY skill and link the same account you have used to set up your device. Account can be created while setting up the device or in the Alexa App.

I can't find "HOMEEMITY_XXXX" network to set the device up.

Make sure the device is in configuration mode, signalized by pulsating light.

If not, check the power and reset the device by toggling the power to HOMEEMITY five times (Turn if ON -> wait 1-5 seconds -> Turn it OFF -> wait 1-5 seconds and repeat).

Alexa requires to have an Echo (for eg. Echo dot) connected and powered ON to discover new devices.

How can I control it?

My HOMEEMITY is not shown in the Smart Home devices.

Please click the "Add Devices" Button in the Alexa App. If your device is not shown, make sure your HOMEEMITY device and Alexa skill HOMEEMITY linked with the same account. If not, reset your device and relink your HOMEEMITY skill.
