Configuración e instalación

Before beginning installation, ensure the main power supply is turned off at the circuit breaker to prevent electrical shock.

1. Instalación física y cableado

Descripción de la imagen: This image displays the LoraTap Wi-Fi Relay Receiver module. It shows the 'Input' terminals (L for Live, N for Neutral) and 'Output' terminals (N for Neutral, L for Live/Load) clearly labeled. An antenna is visible on top, and regulatory marks (FCC, CE, RoHS) are printed on the device. The module is compact, designed for integration into existing electrical setups.

Descripción de la imagen: This image illustrates the compact size of the LoraTap Wi-Fi Relay Receiver (48mm x 42mm x 23mm) compared to a larger, older module. Below, it shows the module being installed inside a standard electrical wall box, demonstrating how it connects to the existing wiring for a light switch. The blue wire represents neutral, and the brown wire represents live, connecting to the module's input and output terminals.

Descripción de la imagen: This diagram provides step-by-step visual instructions for wiring the LoraTap Wi-Fi Relay Receiver. It shows how to connect the Live (L) and Neutral (N) input wires to the module, and then connect the module's output (N and L) to the lamp or load. The diagram also depicts the process of removing a wall plate, installing the module behind a switch, and securing it. It emphasizes the importance of correct wiring for safe and functional operation.

1. Turn off the power at the circuit breaker for the circuit you will be working on.
2. Open the electrical box or switch housing where you intend to install the module.
3. Identify the Live (L) and Neutral (N) wires for the input power supply.
4. Connect the input Live (L) and Neutral (N) wires to the corresponding 'Input' terminals on the LoraTap module.
5. Connect the Neutral (N) and Live/Load (L) wires leading to your appliance (e.g., lamp) to the corresponding 'Output' terminals on the LoraTap module.
6. Ensure all connections are secure. The module is designed for both surface and flush mounting.
7. Carefully place the module inside the electrical box, ensuring no wires are pinched.
8. Restablezca la energía en el disyuntor.

2. Emparejamiento y configuración de aplicaciones

The LoraTap Wi-Fi Relay Receiver uses the Smart Life App for control and configuration.

1. Descarga la aplicación ‘Smart Life’ desde la tienda de aplicaciones de tu teléfono inteligente (iOS o Android).
2. Regístrese o inicie sesión en su cuenta Smart Life.
3. Ensure your smartphone is connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network (5GHz networks are not supported for initial pairing).
4. En la aplicación, toque “+” o “Agregar dispositivo”.
5. Follow the in-app instructions to put the device into pairing mode. This usually involves pressing a button on the module or cycling its power. The indicator light on the module will typically flash rapidly.
6. Select the device type (e.g., 'Switch' or 'Electrical'). The app should automatically detect the LoraTap module.
7. Ingrese la contraseña de su red Wi-Fi cuando se le solicite.
8. Once successfully paired, you can rename the device for easier identification (e.g., 'Living Room Light').

Instrucciones de funcionamiento

1. Control remoto mediante la aplicación Smart Life

Descripción de la imagen: This image showcases various features of the Smart Life App for controlling the LoraTap module. It highlights 'Remote Control' allowing operation from anywhere, 'Create Schedules' for automated on/off times, and 'Countdown Function' for temporary operation. The app interface displays options for setting timers and managing connected devices.

• Abra la aplicación Smart Life en su teléfono inteligente.
• Select the LoraTap module you wish to control from the device list.
• Toque el ícono de encendido para encender o apagar el dispositivo conectado.

2. Programación y temporizadores

• Within the device control interface in the Smart Life app, navigate to the 'Schedule' or 'Timer' section.
• You can set one-time, daily, or weekly schedules for the device to turn on or off automatically.
• Use the 'Countdown' function to set a specific duration after which the device will turn off.

3. Voice Control (Google Home / Amazon Alexa)

Descripción de la imagen: This image shows a man holding a child in a kitchen, with a voice assistant speaker (Alexa) and a Google Home speaker depicted alongside the LoraTap module. The text indicates 'Voice Control' and shows an example command: "Alexa, turn on the light in the kitchen." This illustrates the seamless integration of the LoraTap module with popular voice assistant platforms for hands-free control.

• Ensure your LoraTap module is successfully paired with the Smart Life app.
• Open your Google Home or Amazon Alexa app.
• Link your Smart Life account within the Google Home/Alexa app's 'Skills' or 'Works with Google' section.
• Discover new devices. Your LoraTap module should appear.
• You can now control the device using voice commands, e.g., "Hey Google, turn on Living Room Light" or "Alexa, turn off Kitchen Lamp."

4. Control de grupo

Descripción de la imagen: This image demonstrates the group control functionality within the Smart Life App. It shows a single smartphone controlling multiple LoraTap modules simultaneously, indicating that one app can manage several receivers. Conversely, it also illustrates that multiple smartphones can control a single LoraTap receiver, allowing shared access for family members. The app interface displays a power button and timer options for each device.

• In the Smart Life app, you can create groups of devices to control multiple LoraTap modules simultaneously.
• This allows you to turn on/off all lights in a room or area with a single command or tap.

Mantenimiento

• The LoraTap Wi-Fi Relay Receiver requires minimal maintenance.
• Ensure the device is kept clean and free from dust. Disconnect power before cleaning.
