Xiaomi Home App

Q: What should I do if the hub cannot connect to the Wi-Fi?
1. Hold your phone close to the hub when connecting.
2. Enable Wi-Fi on your phone.
3. Connect your phone to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network.
4. When the app indicates that the hub could not connect, please reset the hub by pressing and holding its button for ten seconds until the indicator light starts blinking orange.

Q: Where should I install the hub?
1. The hub needs to be plugged into a power outlet.
2. To ensure a stable connection with child devices, it is recommended to install the hub in a central location and maintain a distance of 2 - 6 meters from the wireless router.
3. Avoid metal obstacles and load-bearing walls between the hub and its child devices, and between the hub and the router.

Q: Can I pair the hub directly with my app without connecting to the Wi-Fi?
A: No, make sure your phone is connected to the Wi-Fi and then connect to the hub via the app.

Q: What is the maximum distance between a child device and the hub, and does the signal pass through walls?
A: The effective distance range between a child device and the hub varies depending on the actual indoor environment. For household use, the distance between a child device and the hub should be no more than 20 meters and there should be no more than two walls between them.

Q: How do I verify whether a location is suitable for installing a Zigbee child device?
A: After successfully connecting a Zigbee child device, try to trigger the child device before installing it, to see if the child device's status is updated in the app. Otherwise, refer to the method on how to verify the connection between the child device and the hub (press reset button for most child devices). The hub will beep twice to indicate that the child device is within effective range.

Q: Why does the child device keep going offline?
1. It may be placed too far from the hub or there may be metal obstacles in between, try moving it closer to the hub.
2. The battery may be depleted and needs to be replaced.
Note: In order to achieve an optimal experience, please update the hub's firmware in time to ensure compatibility and a stable communication between devices.

Q: How do I identify different child devices of the same type paired with the same hub?
A: You can view the device logs to identify different devices. When adding devices, it is recommended to categorize devices based on their installation location or intended use and rename them via the app.

Q: How do I set up a smart scene?
1. Tap Automation on the homepage of the Mi Home or Xiaomi Home app, tap the "+" icon in the top right corner and select the trigger device and condition. Finally, select the device and the result to conduct.
2. For example: Turn on the light when the motion sensor is triggered by someone. Tap the "+" icon in the top right corner, select the motion sensor as the trigger device and set motion detected as the condition. Finally, select a light and select turn on as the result to carry out to complete the smart scene.

Q: Why can some smart scenes still be carried out and some cannot be carried out when the hub is disconnected from the network?
1. Depending on the conditions and results of a smart scene, smart scenes are divided into cloud and local automation. The smart scenes executed manually are cloud automation. For the smart scenes executed automatically, the automation mode can be checked in more settings of the selected scene.
2. Cloud automation smart scenes rely on the network to send a command from the trigger device to the cloud, and the cloud sends the corresponding command to the execution device. Therefore, once the internet connection is lost, the smart scene cannot be conducted.
3. Local automation smart scenes rely on the hub, that is, the trigger device sends a command to the hub when it is triggered, and the hub sends the corresponding command to the execution device via Bluetooth, Zigbee, or LAN. So even if the router is not connected to the Internet, the smart scene can still be carried out as long as there is a normal connection between the hub and the execution device.

Q: How do I add Zigbee child devices to the hub?
1. Zigbee child devices can only connect to the Mi Home or Xiaomi Home app via a hub. Select the hub to pair with while connected to the Mi Home or Xiaomi Home app.
2. If you want to connect a Zigbee child device to a different hub, please delete it from the homepage in the Mi Home or Xiaomi Home app first. Then add it again and select the hub you want to pair it with.
3. You can view the list of child devices paired with the hub in the plug-in of the hub.

Q: Why am I unable to remotely control the hub and its child devices after accessing the HomeKit?
A: After adding the hub to the Apple Home app, you also need to set up a HomePod, Apple TV (iOS 11.0 or above), or iPad (iOS 12.0 or above) in order to control the hub remotely. Please refer to Apple Home app notifications for specific operations.

Q: Why can't I find some child devices in the Apple Home app?
A: When the hub is added to the Apple Home app, only child devices that support HomeKit are displayed in the Apple Home app. Devices without "Works with Apple HomeKit" authorization cannot access HomeKit.

Q: What is guard mode?
A: In guard mode, devices set as a trigger device will trigger the hub's alert and the hub will send notifications to the phone when a trigger condition is met. In daily life, different scenarios require different areas and objects to be guarded. Therefore, the Mi Smart Home Hub offers four different guard modes (basic, at-home, away-from-home, and sleep) to meet different usage scenarios.

Q: How does basic guard work?
1. Basic guard is automatically enabled when any child device is added to the hub, and it cannot be disabled. Whenever the child device's trigger condition is met while in this mode, it will trigger the hub's alert. Basic guard is automatically disabled when no child device is added to the hub.
2. Gas detectors, smoke detectors, and water leak sensors that are paired with the hub already, will be configured in basic guard mode by default. Devices that do not require constant guarding, can be removed from the basic guard mode (gas detectors and smoke detectors cannot be used in other modes).

Q: Why does the hub beep twice?
1. Original firmware
The hub will beep twice when connected successfully for the first time and when reconnected successfully after being offline.
2. Firmware version 1.4.5_0005
The hub does not beep when connected successfully after unplugging and restarting.
3. Firmware version 1.4.5_0006 and above
The hub does not beep when connected successfully after being offline.
