The Cygnett Smart Hub + IR Remote Control is a central component of the Cygnett Smart Home ecosystem, designed to unify control over various smart home devices and appliances. It acts as a universal infrared (IR) remote control for devices like TVs, DVD players, and air conditioners, aiming to reduce the clutter of multiple physical remotes. Beyond its IR capabilities, the Smart Hub serves as the platform for other Cygnett smart sensors and control buttons, including the Smart Control Button, Smart Motion Sensor, Smart Window & Door Sensor, and Smart Humidity & Temperature Sensor. This integration allows users to manage their home environment from a single, centralized app, offering convenience, security, and peace of mind.
The primary function of the Cygnett Smart Hub + IR Remote Control is to provide a centralized control point for a wide range of smart home devices. It integrates with Google Home Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and Apple HomeKit, allowing for voice control and broader smart home ecosystem compatibility. Users can control their TV, DVD player, air conditioner, and other IR-controlled appliances directly through the Cygnett Smart app. The device also acts as a hub for Cygnett's smart sensors, enabling the collection of live information from the home and facilitating automated actions based on sensor data. The app's intuitive user interface allows for remote power on/off, monitoring of device status, and access to various settings.
The IR remote control feature allows users to either select from a large, constantly updated database of remote controls for various brands and models or "teach" the Smart Hub functions from an existing physical remote control. This learning mode enables the Smart Hub to replicate the commands of virtually any IR remote, making it highly adaptable to existing home entertainment and climate control systems.
The Smart Hub tab within the Cygnett Smart app is where users can add and manage their smart sensors and control buttons. This section provides live information about the home, allowing for real-time monitoring of environmental conditions and security status.
