| + | === WiFi Light & WiFi Fan registration === | ||
| + | |||
| + | In order to get started, the devices have to be registered using the Alexa App: | ||

| + | {{https://ocw.cs.pub.ro/courses/_media/iothings/proiecte/2021/alexa_setup_devices.png?600}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | After the registration is complete, the 2 devices will be available in the "Lights" section of the application under the names "WiFi Light" and "WiFi Fan". From there they can be controlled with Alexa. | ||

| + | === WiFi Light usage === | ||
| The Alexa library for Arduino is designed especially for lights. So using it to control the lights of this project was pretty straight forward because it implied to use this library as intended. Functionality for the lights include turning lights on/off, setting the brightness and setting the color: | The Alexa library for Arduino is designed especially for lights.

| For the fan on the other hand, I had to adapt these mechanisms available for lights to obtain the functionality I needed. Also, the fan is tightly dependent on the temperature sensor.
