Once you have linked Google Home to the anywAiR Ducted Controller, you can do the following:
- Basic air-conditioning control (on/off, mode, temperature, fan speed)
- Open or close the garage
There are several ways you can use Google Home to control your system:
1. Voice Commands
You can now control the system using Google Assistant.
Examples:
“Hey Google, turn on/off the aircon.”
“Hey Google, set the aircon to 22 degrees.”
“Hey Google, change the fan speed to high.”
“Hey Google, open (or close) the garage door.”
2. Google Home app
a. Open the Google Home app.
b. Tap the Aircon button to turn the aircon on or off.
c. Tap the Garage button to open or close the garage door (if applicable).
d. Press and hold the Aircon button to access additional aircon controls.
e. Press and hold the Garage button to bring up the Open/Close control.
NOTE:
Please be aware that the Google Home app allows for temperature adjustments in 0.5° increments. In contrast, the anywAiR wall-mounted touch screen only supports 1.0° increments.
This difference is a standard characteristic of the Google Home interface and cannot currently be adjusted within the anywAiR settings.
