    Hello

    I have bought a whole set of home automation equipment: gates, door and window sensors, switches, etc. I am looking for someone who knows SMART LIFE or Tuya well and can help me programme it and, if necessary, program it.
    I am looking for someone who knows SMART LIFE or Tuya well and will help to program it all and, if necessary...
    All over the phone.
    Alternatively, I will pay for the service and learn to the extent that I am able to do it myself.
    Thank you in advance
    My telephone number is 512 009 248

    Best regards

    Tony

    Start by adding devices - how: refer to the device manual. Generally you enter pairing mode and detect with the app.
    Once you have the devices in the app then go to the automation tab and at the top you have + - add new. The wizard will guide you.
    If you have any questions - write.

    Thank you for your answer, but to this extent I understand it, it is about the moment when I have to write the scenario and this is already more difficult.
    That's why I would prefer if there was someone to help me by phone.
    Regards

    I can't imagine explaining this over the phone.... Something else to show 'live'.
    The wizard itself in SMART LIFE is very intuitive - you start with a trigger - i.e. an event to trigger the automation - e.g. light on, weather, time. Then the actions to perform - e.g. turn off another light. When you get to the end of the wizard you can add other events and condition them - e.g. both must be met, or one is enough. You can also add actions and delays.
    "Tap to Run" - here you have something like scenes - do with one device and at the end you add as many devices as you want.
    Play around, you'll find it's easy :) .

    Hello I bought a Wireless ZigBee Gateway by Moes (Tuya) and I can not connect to it. I tried more than 10h in different ways restart the modem, factory settings, without access to the net, etc no application connects, I thought defective but I went to a neighbour has a modem of another company and with him the first time after 30 seconds connected. What can I do to get it working for me too apart from changing the modem?
    PS. The modem I have is new from the operator is 3 months old and is the latest product of this company.

    .
    Yes I know it's not a modem it's supposedly a gateway. (That ring that is supposed to rule others). But for it to do that it has to be connected to my modem my network.

    I bought a light switch on WiFi doesn't work because I don't have an N wire in the socket, I bought another one that doesn't use an N wire. It works but the control from the phone doesn't work because it's ZigBee.

    I bought a Wireless ZigBee Gateway - because supposedly it is needed to connect to this light switch and other devices. But it's not pretty here either. I can't connect to it with any app, on my neighbour's modem another modem works fine.

    Check that you have 2.4 GHz WiFi and a phone connected to this WiFi. The security of this WiFi, for example, could also be a problem. A 2.4 and 5 GHz network with the same name could also be a problem.

    Yes I know that on 2.4 the phone I am supposed to have in the modem has separate names for the given transmission 2.4GHz is Radio while 5GHz is Radio5 in total the Smart life program itself (this is given by the manufacturer) as well as Tuya Smart tells me to change the connection. I have several devices hooked up to 2.4GHz Led strips and light switches in the terrarium (they turn themselves on/off at given times, But this is after WiFi - Magic Home). Not as in this case ZigBee

    It just seems to me that the modem I have does not allow the connection of this Gateway - Hub because, as I wrote, I spent more than 10h on it changing names, factory settings of the modem, with and without access to the network, and at my neighbour's it worked immediately after entering the network password in the programs I previously connected to his network with my phone.

    I will check WEP.
    I've been to a friend's house they have a FRITZ!Box 7430 older than the previous one I tested at my neighbour's and they also connect after 20 secs with no problem and I think this Gateway of mine got an update but it didn't change anything for me. I didn't log out of her modem thinking I would connect to the light switch since the tel is paired but no because I don't have her modem without the modem nothing works.

    Added after 1 [hour] 5 [minutes]: .

    Change to WEP on a trial basis and see if it works.
    .

    Lord I did not think of that. I changed the connection to WPA because that's what I have and the connection already worked like others in 20.sec. I changed the security back to WPA 2 as it was from the manufacturer and it still works.
    Simple solution.

    I will dig up the topic. I need some clarification help.
    I have this ZigBee 3.0 smart gateway Hub ()https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/4000504896650.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.215d5c0fydS7VU

    to this I have purchased

    I set the whole thing up in the Smart Life application (I turn the light on and off on the wall switch as well as from the remote control) In the application I have added these 2 devices Gateway
    When I enter I click on Gateway I have these 2 devices as added.

    I have bought the Led bar controller https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/1005001918665476.html?spm=a2g0o.9042311.0.0.27425c0fjnHtke

    everything works in the application and from the remote control but the 2 recently purchased devices are not in the application when I enter the Gateway I have these 2 devices as added light switch and remote control.
    These recently purchased devices occupy IP ports on the modem and do not connect through the Gateway but through the modem.

    What have I done wrong how to add them to the Gateway?
    I go into the Smart Life application, click on Gateway at the very bottom, click Add slave device and I do not find the Led bar (this I have at hand because the lighting controller is under the ceiling)
    I only find it in the Smart Life app when I click at the top of the program.

    How do I get these 2 devices to connect to the Gateway and not the modem?

    - you won't add them to the gateway. They are on WiFi and you can add devices to the gateway on zigbee.
    You add to the app -

    Zzzzz then when buying what should I look at?
    When searching I typed in zigbee tuya what phrase correct and what to look at before making another wrong purchase?
    Because this lighting controller https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/1005003093336697.html?spm=a2g0o.9042311.0.0.27425c0f5jvlFd
    annoys me it is 3-4m from the Gateway / modem and there is no range I already wanted to buy another Gateway to put it in the kitchen where that controller is and today when I was making locks on the modem for devices using my WiFi I caught that these 2 devices do not connect to the Gateway.

    - and the mechanism also showed results for just one phrase: "tuya".

    - read the description. e.g. this controller does not have in the description zigbee "Tuya WiFi switch smart switch module 4 Gang switch module lighting APP remotes control conversion module for Alexa Google" and is clearly WiFi.
    The advantage of zigbee is that almost all (from what I remember I think there were some exceptions) powered (not battery powered) devices extend the range of zigbee.

    Hi,
    I would like to build such a simple system for my bathroom to detect flooding, water sensor + ball valve.
    You can get all this from Tuya, but according to me and here I am not sure that the valve closes and the sensors and the valve must be online via wifi connected to a server?
    and I often turn off the wifi at home, and always at night, and when I go away
    so this system will not protect me....
    Am I right?

    Thank you and best regards

    I am asking for help in setting up a scene which is to look as follows. A Tuya switch which, when no power is given (off), is supposed to override the second one to which the bathroom fan is connected and is supposed to switch off. The first one, which I have called the controller, goes "on" when power is applied and turns on the fan controller. However, I am unable to set the stage to switch off. The said controller is connected to the lighting, which is the power supply of this controller. By setting in the scene that when the controller is "off" or "no power" it is supposed to switch the fan controller off does not work. Conversely when the controller is off due to no power after setting the scene when it is "on" it turns the fan on.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around programming and troubleshooting issues related to home automation devices using the Tuya and Smart Life applications. Users seek assistance in setting up devices such as ZigBee gateways, light switches, and sensors. Key points include the process of adding devices through the app, creating automation scenarios, and resolving connectivity issues with ZigBee gateways. Users also share experiences with different modems affecting device connectivity and discuss the importance of WiFi settings. Additionally, there are inquiries about specific device compatibility and setup for home automation systems, including flood detection and control mechanisms.
