This article shows you the differences between a Home Automation device and an AC Cloud Control device and how to identify them.
QUESTION
What is the difference between AC Cloud Control and Home Automation?
ANSWER
AC Cloud Control devices connect to the AC Cloud Control server over the internet via Wi-Fi. This solution provides an iOS app, an Android app, and a web interface to manage your Indoor Unit.
Home Automation (WMP) devices connect to a Home Automation System via local Wi-Fi. Communication is based on the ASCII protocol over TCP to monitor your Indoor Unit.
ADDITIONAL INFO
It is not possible to change the WMP device to function as an AC Cloud Control device or vice versa. If you have purchased the wrong type, you should contact the dealer who sold you the device to discuss the possibility of replacing it.
