On the back of the outer package is a picture of the bedroom. The simple layout, comfortable big bed and warm sunshine are very beautiful and make people yearn for a simple life. After careful observation, we will find that the air conditioner partner connected to the air conditioner, switches, sockets, temperature and humidity sensors on the wall, wireless switches on the bed, and human body sensors under the bed can control everything when you move your fingers on the bed; The addition of Aqara smart bedroom suite makes the simple home more intelligent and beautiful.
The Aqara Smart Bedroom Set includes an exclusive play script, which shows the six commonly used ways of using the Aqara Smart Bedroom Set in the form of cartoons, so that users who are not familiar with smart home products can also quickly experience the convenience brought by smart home, and explore the fun of different play methods on this basis.
On the back is the user manual and San Bao certificate of the Aqara Smart Bedroom Set, which introduces the product parameters, functional features, use methods and scene settings. It is worth mentioning that the smart bedroom suite has completed the binding of sub equipment before leaving the factory. Users can use the whole set of equipment simply by connecting the air conditioner partner to WIFI, which is very convenient. After several years of development, the software and hardware of Xiaomi Smart Home have been relatively perfect, and the use experience is the best. The process of adding and deleting sub devices is basically completed with one click, which will be introduced later.
Finally, I saw the real look of the Aqara Smart Bedroom Set, a complete set of seven products, the iconic Mijia white, and the materials and workmanship of the whole set of products are quite exquisite, with excellent texture and feel. If you have contacted Mijia's products, I believe you will have a deep understanding of this. The air conditioner partner is the BOSS in the package. It has the ZigBee gateway function. The other six products cannot be directly connected to WiFi. It needs to be connected to the air conditioner partner to use it. It is its younger brother. ZigBee network is characterized by low power consumption, low cost, high security, short delay, and high capacity.
The Aqara Smart Bedroom Suit still uses Mijia APP, which can intelligently link with other Xiaomi devices and create desktop shortcuts for everyone's devices. It will not be introduced in detail due to space limitations.
Next, we will introduce the products in the Aqara smart bedroom suite one by one
There is a square paper box in the upper right corner of the package, which contains some accessories that will be used during installation, screws required for installing wall switches and sockets, double-sided adhesive tape for wireless switches, double-sided adhesive tape for fixing human body sensors and thermometers, and flexible and simple installation is also a major feature of the Aqara Smart Bedroom Package.
Aqara air conditioner partner - bedroom home appliances become smart
Aqara air conditioner companion is the leader in the package and the most functional one. It can not only turn ordinary air conditioners into intelligence, but also the gateway, network radio, smart doorbell, smart socket, and smart remote control that ZigBee devices access. It is equivalent to the combination of Xiaomi smart gateway, smart socket, and smart remote control. It is a powerful and valuable product.
The Aqara air conditioner partner continues the traditional refinement of Mijia products. The round eye pleasing shape is seen in the square, and the color contrast stitching of white in the front and black in the back highlights the quality of every detail. The front is a 16A jack, and the indicator on the top is also integrated with the light sensor function; right There are speakers on the side, but the sound quality is average; There is a button at the bottom. When replacing WIFI and there is a connection problem, you can press and hold to reset the device; 16A pin on the back.
Plug the air conditioner partner into the air conditioner socket on the wall and connect it to Mijia APP. It can be used as a gateway and Internet radio alone. In the season when the air conditioner is not used, the air conditioner partner can also give full play to the feature of one thing for many purposes.
After years of polishing, the software settings of Mijia APP have been quite perfect. When a new device is found, it will automatically pop up the device connection prompt, or you can manually add a device, which can be completed with a few simple clicks according to the prompt. The process is not slow. You can buy a Mijia device and feel it for yourself. After a look, the number of products supported by Mijia has reached 107, and Xiaomi's smart family is thriving.
After the connection is successful, the air conditioner partner will appear in the device list of Mijia APP, which can create a desktop shortcut for easy use. The blue screenshot is the interface of the air conditioner partner. Pay attention to the top. According to the multi-function characteristics of the air conditioner partner, it can be divided into four parts: air conditioner, gateway, automation and equipment, which are convenient for daily use and management.
Since it is called "Air Conditioner Companion", it is of course the first task to turn the ordinary air conditioner into an intelligent and smart air conditioner. The first screen of the corresponding APP is also reserved for the air conditioner interface. Select to add an air conditioner and follow the prompts.
The remote control library of the air conditioner partner basically supports all the air conditioner brands on the market. After selecting your air conditioner brand, APP will provide you with multiple remote control schemes of the brand. Next, try one by one, select the scheme whose keys match your air conditioner perfectly, and confirm that it can be used normally. Fortunately, I matched the second set...
After the matching is successful, the air conditioner interface will become like this. The interface uses blue and gray to distinguish the air conditioner switch status, which is more intuitive. The current temperature is displayed in the upper circle. Press the arrow or slide up and down to adjust the temperature; The three small icons below display the current mode, wind speed and sweeping status; Below are power statistics and current power; At the bottom is the air conditioning control button. There are more control buttons in the pull-up and hidden menu.
The air conditioner partner can not only control the air conditioner, but also control other infrared remote control appliances. Add remote control functions according to the prompts. The disadvantage is that the buttons need to be added one by one, which is a bit troublesome; There is no shortcut, and it is troublesome to jump to the interface several times; There is linkage to control other electrical appliances in automation, but it cannot be set normally before the deadline. Make a spare remote control for emergencies.
The air conditioner partner has the function of ZigBee gateway. Several other products in the package are connected to the network through it. Other devices connected with ZigBee in the "Mijia" can also be connected. In theory, a single ZigBee gateway can connect 254 devices. It is no problem to access multiple sockets, switches, sensors, etc., fully meeting the needs of the family. The package has been bound when it leaves the factory. Four battery powered devices, namely, single button wireless switch, double button wireless switch, temperature and humidity sensor, and body sensor, are directly displayed in the list. Wall switches and wall sockets can be connected only after they are installed and powered on.
The gateway function of the air conditioner partner has the functions of alert and network radio. The only difference from Xiaomi's multi-function gateway is that there are no colored lights. After the wall switch and wall socket are installed, the switch status can be directly controlled and displayed in the list.
Automatic setting can make multiple devices linked, bring real convenience to life, and is an important embodiment of intelligence. When the suite leaves the factory, it has customized several automation scenes suitable for the bedroom, which is convenient for friends who are not familiar with intelligent products. We can also customize our own automation scenes according to the home environment and our own needs. The setting of an automation scenario is one or more conditions. When all conditions are met, one or more results will be automatically executed. You can set it to take effect only in a certain period of time. For example, the wireless switch at the bedside controls the light; The human body sensor controls the night light connected to the wall socket; Temperature sensor controls air conditioning;... wait. It is so simple to make ordinary electrical appliances intelligent.
The table in the device displays the current connected device and its status. Click the device to directly enter the control interface, delete and add a new ZigBee device, and operate here.
Click Add Sub device at the bottom to enter the list of devices that can be added, and select the corresponding device to add. Do not see do not know, a look startled! At present, Mijia has 21 ZigBee devices, which are related to household electricity, lighting, safety and other aspects. Intelligent life has been realized.
The process of adding sub equipment is very simple. Just follow the operation prompts. After the equipment is added successfully, select the corresponding room and name for the equipment to facilitate management.
Now, the ordinary air conditioner in the home has turned into a smart air conditioner. It can not only be controlled by remote control, timing control and remote control through mobile phones, but also be smarter. With the temperature and humidity sensors and body sensors in the package, when there are people in the home, the air conditioner will automatically turn on to adjust the temperature, so that our home will always be comfortable; Automatic shutdown when no one is present, energy saving and environmental protection.
Aqara temperature and humidity sensor - master the bedroom environment
The Aqara temperature and humidity sensor adopts the appearance design similar to that of the air conditioner partner, which is also exquisite. The thermometer logo on the front is very ingenious, and its function can be seen at a glance. It can accurately sense the indoor temperature, humidity and pressure. When the environment is not suitable, it will automatically send a message notification, such as when the temperature suddenly rises, to remind you to check whether there is a fire risk. More importantly, intelligent linkage air conditioners, humidifiers and other equipment can always keep the home environment comfortable.
Reset key at the top
The removable back cover with round back can be opened by inserting a coin into the groove in the middle and rotating it. With adhesive backing, easy installation. The use of CR2032 button battery, thanks to the ultra-low power consumption of ZigBee network, has an extremely long use time. My earliest Xiaomi Smart Home Kit has not replaced the battery for more than two years, and of course, the endurance depends on the use frequency.
Now, the home environment is under control. You can stick the temperature and humidity sensor anywhere in the room, and the small and delicate shape will not affect the beauty. The temperature and humidity meter can sense the temperature, humidity and air pressure in the room in real time. Two interface styles are available. Set automatic, intelligent linkage air conditioner, humidifier and other equipment.
Aqara Human Body Sensor - Mastering every move
The Aqara human body sensor is made of high-quality materials and has the characteristics of anti-aging, moisture-proof and flame retardant. Pyroelectric infrared sensor is used to judge whether there are people and animals passing by through the movement of induced heat. It has high detection accuracy, rapid response, a detection range of 170 degrees, and a maximum detection distance of 7 meters.
The reset key is changed from the original pinhole type to the key, which is much more convenient.
The Aqara body sensor is powered by the CR2450 button battery, and is equipped with a base, which can be rotated 360 ° horizontally and folded 90 °, making the installation position of the body sensor more flexible. It can more accurately select the area to be monitored to avoid false triggering. The base is also fixed with double-sided glue, which is convenient for installation.
Human body sensors can accurately sense human movement and indoor light intensity, and record them in detail. By setting, when a mobile is detected, a notification will be sent to the mobile phone, which can play a great role in family security.
Now, everything at home is under control. Human body sensor is an important sensing condition in automatic control. Through linkage with other equipment, automatic control of lights, air conditioners, and some other electrical appliances can be achieved, such as: automatic light on when someone moves and the brightness is dark, automatic closing of electrical appliances when no one moves for a long time, etc.
Aqara wireless switch - easy to grasp with fingertips
The package includes two wireless switches, the single button version and the double button version. Their functions are basically the same. They are written together. The function of wireless switch can be understood as the remote control at hand, which is also one of my most commonly used devices. Those who have experienced using smart devices will know that in the control mode of smart homes, the timing and automatic control mode is too rigid, and there is no contingency; For mobile phone control, it is also very troublesome to open the multi-layer interface, and the wireless switch just makes up for this shortcoming. Just move your finger, you can achieve simple and convenient real-time operation.
The appearance and size of the wireless switch are similar to the wall switch in our home. The panel design is more simple and beautiful, with good materials and workmanship. The installation method of double-sided adhesive tape fixation is also simpler and more casual. The installation in any position is not abrupt, and does not affect the overall beauty of the home. It can also be placed at any place within reach for easy use.
The internal structure is very simple, using button batteries for power supply.
The interfaces of the two wireless switches are relatively simple. They only display the usage log and several simple general settings. After all, this device has no functions, and it needs to be linked with other devices to be useful.
What's the use of wireless switches? It can link with the air conditioner partner, wall socket and wall switch in the suit. When you lie in bed and move your fingers, you can control the switching temperature, power supply and light of the air conditioner. Of course, the more intelligent devices you have, the greater the role of wireless switches.
Aqara wall switch- Bedroom lighting becomes intelligent
The Aqara wall switch is the same as the wireless switch key panel of the double key version. The full key design is very simple. The surface of the panel is finely sanded, and the key rebounds gently and feels particularly comfortable. Different from the old switches at home, the Aqara wall switch automatically bounces back to its original position after being pressed, and always keeps the appearance on the picture. The switch status is not apparent from the surface.
The indicator light is designed at the bottom. I am used to looking at the indicator light and looking for the switch in the dark, but I am not used to it. Fortunately, I am familiar with the environment in my home, and I can touch it with my eyes closed. Moreover, with the blessing of intelligent control, I may not have to press the switch in the future.
The materials on the back are also exquisite. The three wiring holes are marked. Although they are not disassembled, we can see the copper core of yellow, orange and orange through the wiring holes. Xiaomi's consistent authentic materials are trustworthy.
Wall switches can be installed by professional electricians, but it is not difficult to do it yourself. Pay attention to turn off the switch at home first, and then install it after confirming that the power has been cut off. The first step is to remove the wall switch key panel; The second step is to connect the wires. The standards of wall switches are unified. We just need to connect the three wires L, L1 and L2 on the original switch to the corresponding hole of the Aqara wall switch. After connection, cover the panel to check whether the switch works normally.
After testing the light switch, fix it with the screws in the accessory box and fasten the panel. Press the switch to see the indicator light at the bottom. Red indicates no connection, and blue indicates normal connection. The package has been bound when it leaves the factory. As long as you press the button, it can be automatically connected, or you can add a device from the gateway's device list. I don't know much about electricians. The size of the double key wall switch should be a unified standard. My home is a house in 2012. The Aqara wall switch and the wall socket box are completely compatible, so you can rest assured.
If you can handle the front ones, you can control the lights in the bedroom through your mobile phone. By modifying the name and icon, the equipment controlled by two switches can be more clearly distinguished. There is also a thoughtful setting. The left and right buttons can be switched to wireless switches. If there is a single control light at home, the other button will not be idle.
Now the ordinary lamps in the home have changed into smart lamps that can be remotely controlled, timed and intelligently controlled, and can also remotely check the switch status. There are two ways of intelligent transformation of home lighting: one is to replace the intelligent light; Second, replace the intelligent switch. At present, the price of smart lights is not cheap, and the appearance is simple. If the expensive luxury ceiling lights were installed at home, it is impossible to replace them easily. Compared with the two, replacing smart switches is simpler and more cost-effective. Urgently wait for the introduction of the three control intelligent switch, and the living room also needs to be replaced.
Aqara wall socket - bedroom power transformer intelligent
The Aqara wall socket is the smart version of the 10A five hole socket that we see in our home. It is meticulously made and has a higher appearance. The sockets are all equipped with safety doors. It is basically the same as Mijia's star product, Xiaomi Smart Socket, in terms of function, more beautiful installation mode, and increased power statistics function.
Also see the yellow copper core
The installation of the wall socket is the same as that of the wall switch. Before installation, cut off the power, remove the cover plate of the wall socket, and connect wires according to the corresponding signs of the old socket. If it's a new house, you'd better hire an electrician.
After connecting and powering on, the indicator light of the wall socket will be on. It's better to test whether the two hole and three hole sockets are powered on. If everything is normal, cover the panel.
In addition to intelligent control, you can also view the power consumption and current power. Several function settings are also very practical; Power on after power-off and automatically return to the state before power-off; Charging protection, automatic power-off after equipment is fully charged, no need to worry about overcharging; Turn off the indicator light at a customized time, which will not affect sleep.
Now the power consumption in the bedroom has become smart, and the socket status is always mastered to ensure safer power consumption.
Smart scene demonstration
After the previous twists and turns, the Aqara smart bedroom suite has been in place, and everyone knows about each product. You can control the lights and appliances in your home through your mobile phone, but this is not enough. Real intelligence knows what you need, which can be achieved through automated settings. Automation is to set one or more conditions and automatically execute one or more commands when the conditions are met. Let's talk about the automatic settings in combination with specific scenarios.
Scenario 1: Turn off the air conditioner automatically when nobody is around
The simplest kind of automatic setting is the intelligent linkage between the human body sensor and the air conditioner partner. When there is no one in the room for a long time, the air conditioner will be automatically turned off to avoid forgetting to turn off the air conditioner when you are in a hurry to travel. Home lights and appliances can be used.
Scenario 2: Turn on the air conditioner automatically when someone is around
With the cooperation of human body sensor and temperature and humidity sensor, when there is someone at home and the temperature is lower than a certain value, the air conditioner will be automatically turned on. In the command execution, the air conditioner can set the specific status of mode, temperature, wind speed and scavenging. The automatic setting of two or more conditions can achieve more accurate and practical results.
Scene 3: The bedroom lamp lights up automatically when someone is around
With the cooperation of the human body sensor and the wall switch, it detects that someone is moving, automatically turns on the light, and warm lights welcome you when you go home. Is it very happy. Note that this automation adds an effective time period. The automation is only performed at night, and the light will not be on during the day. This scene can receive different effects depending on the installation position and effective time period of the human body sensor: it is installed at a slightly higher position (such as Scene 1), and the effective time is set to night, with the effect that the light will turn on automatically when entering the bedroom; It is installed at a position lower than the bed, and the time period is set to after sleep. At this time, you can't detect punching on the bed. When you get out of bed, the light will be on, and the scene will become an automatic night light.
Scene 4: Automatic night light switch in toilet
The last scene introduced that the human body sensor works with the wall switch to turn on the light. This scene has a complete automatic night light setting. This scene is set by me before. It needs a smart light bulb. Of course, you can also change the switch in the bathroom to the Aqara wall switch. If someone moves, the light will be turned on automatically. If no one moves, the light will be turned off automatically. The effective time is set to night, depending on your needs. Adjust the detection angle of the human body sensor, which is just detected in front of the bathroom door to reduce false triggering. Use human body sensor to create automatic light, which is applicable to any room in the home. The key is to adjust the detection range of the sensor, so as to get a satisfactory effect.
Scene 5: Wireless switch controls bedroom lighting and air conditioning.
Through the automatic setting, the wireless switch can link several products in the package to control the air conditioner, listen to the radio, switch the lights, switch the power supply and other operations, and can also link more Xiaomi intelligent devices. Its biggest feature is flexible and simple. You can control everything by moving your fingers when lying in bed. You don't have to get up and turn off the lights, find the remote control, and the Gospel of Lazy People.
Summary
Thank you for your patience. See if I have a comprehensive understanding of the Aqara smart bedroom suite after all my wordiness? Aqara's intelligent transformation plan for the bedroom does not require heavy money to create complex decoration, so that the electricity, lighting, and electrical appliances in the bedroom can get a comprehensive intelligent upgrade. With more Xiaomi intelligent products, in a word (here is an advertisement for Xiaoai's students), it will lead you into an era of intelligent life within your reach.
