Deako Lighting Release Notes

Introduction

Clare Controls announces the integration of Deako Lighting devices into the ClareHome system.

Integrate Deako lighting devices in a Clare control system to allow your customers more lighting control. They can send commands and interact with their devices in the Clare system from their Android or iOS devices.

The devices integrate with the Clare system in a way similar to existing lighting devices. All lighting devices share a common UI to ensure user experience consistency.

Notes

• Deako Lighting devices must be added and configured using the Deako app. Once added, the devices are auto discovered in Clare.
• Clare Controls does not support Deako created scenes.
• If any Deako devices are added or removed from the Deako Connect, the Connect must be rebooted. Once the Connect is rebooted, it properly reports the connected devices in the Clare app.

Supported Deako devices:

• Deako Connect
• Deako Scene Controller Smart Dimmer
• Deako Scene Controller Smart Switch
