Remote Control Types:

The Atomi Smart AC Controller supports two main types of AC remotes:

  • Non-LCD Remotes: These remotes typically control power, mode, fan speed, and temperature. The Atomi Smart app will provide full control over these functions, along with additional features like scheduling, countdowns, and usage monitoring.
  • LCD Remotes: For ACs with LCD remotes, the controller primarily manages power. Additional controls like creating unlimited presets, scheduling, countdowns, and usage monitoring are also available through the app. Note that full mode, fan speed, and temperature control via the app may be limited for some LCD remote models.

4. Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Atomi Smart AC Controller:

  • Keep Clean: Regularly wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Software Updates: Keep the Atomi Smart app updated to the latest version to access new features and performance improvements.
  • Stable Power: Ensure the device is connected to a stable power source.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Atomi Smart AC Controller, consider the following:

  • Connectivity Issues:
    • Ensure your home WiFi is 2.4GHz. The controller does not support 5GHz networks.
    • Verify your WiFi network is broadcasting its SSID (not hidden).
    • Check the distance between the controller and your WiFi router. Move the controller closer if necessary.
    • Try resetting the device and re-pairing it with the app.
  • App Not Saving Schedules:
    • Ensure you tap 'Save' after configuring schedules in the Atomi Smart app.
    • Check for app updates and ensure your device's operating system is current.
  • Limited Control with LCD Remotes:
    • Some AC units with LCD remotes may have limited app control beyond power on/off. This is due to the nature of how these remotes communicate.
    • The app may not display the real-time status (e.g., set temperature, mode) of AC units with LCD displays.
  • AC Not Responding:
    • Ensure the Atomi Smart AC Controller has a clear line of sight to your AC unit's infrared receiver.
    • Confirm that your AC unit is powered on and its original remote control is functioning correctly.

If problems persist, refer to the Atomi Smart app's help section or contact customer support.
