Tutorial
While we created HOMEEMITY to have the best user experience, we understand that some people might have a problem or two during the configuration.
This tutorial will guide you in every step needed to enjoy your HOMEEMITY controlled device!
This tutorial is divided into three steps:
- Configuration of the HOMEEMITY device
- Enabling the HOMEEMITY Skill and linking your account.
- Using your HOMEEMITY device
Configuration of the HOMEEMITY device:
1. First, make sure that the HOMEEMITY is connected to a power supply and not configured and is in setup mode.
Setup mode can be recognized by pulsating (“Breathing”) light after powering the device. If it is not in this mode, you can reset it (delete all previous settings) by toggling the power to HOMEEMITY five times (Turn if ON -> wait 1-5 seconds -> Turn it OFF -> wait 1-5 seconds and repeat) or by pressing the blue button for at least 5 seconds.
