Sharing uhome+ with Other Ecosystems
-Matter devices can be shared across different ecosystems through the apps of various ecosystems. Click to enter the device settings page in any app, then click on "Device Sharing" to pop up the device sharing pairing code. Next, use the apps of other platforms to enter the device sharing pairing code or scan the sharing pairing code, and complete the addition according to the prompts.
Sharing Google with Other Ecosystems
-On the main interface, long-press to enter the control interface of the device. Then click on the gear icon in the upper right corner to enter the settings. Select the connected Matter applications and services, and then choose "Associated Applications and Services" to select sharing by pairing code or QR code.
Sharing Alexa with Other Ecosystems
-Enter the device interface, click on the gear option in the upper right corner to enter the settings interface, then choose "other assistants and apps", and then select "add another".
Sharing Apple with Other Ecosystems
-Swipe down to the bottom on the device control interface, and then choose to turn on the pairing mode to share the pairing code.
Sharing Samsung with Other Ecosystems
-On the device control page, click on the three dots in the upper right corner, choose "Share with Other Services", and then select "QR code".
Accepting Shares from Other Ecosystems
-If sharing from uhome+ to the Apple platform, first put the device into the sharing state according to section 4.1, and then refer to section 2.3 to conduct the network configuration operation using the Apple ecosystem. The sharing from other ecosystems follows a similar operation process. First, put the device into the sharing state, and then use the receiving ecosystem to conduct network configuration. It should be noted here that some ecosystems can only share pairing codes or QR codes, so when configuring the network, it is necessary to operate in the way of using the pairing code.
Q&A -- Precautions for the Use of Each Ecosystem
- 1.The Pairing Entrance for Matter Cannot Be Found in Google's iOS App
Currently, only the Android version of the Google ecosystem has been released, while the iOS version has not yet been released.
2 .Why Does My Device Fail to Configure the Network?
-Please confirm whether the mobile phone used for network configuration and the ecological speaker are within the same WiFi local area network.
Confirm whether the router has set up AP isolation (where connected devices cannot communicate with each other, playing an isolating role), is not on the 2.4G frequency band. Meanwhile, iPhones cannot configure the network for router networks without passwords or with spaces in the SSID.
The speaker may be in a dormant state if it has been idle for a long time. You can try restarting the speaker.
The Echo speaker has a password-remembering function. If the WiFi password of the router has been adjusted, it is recommended to clear the function in the App that allows the speaker to use the original password for network configuration, and try to reset the speaker and the App.
3 .Why Can't My Device Enter the Sharing State Again After Exiting the Sharing?
The Apple and Alexa ecosystems have a time limit for a single sharing session. The time limit for Apple is 5 minutes, and for Alexa it is 15 minutes. Before the time limit expires, the sharing state cannot be started again. At this time, you can turn the power of the device on and off. After the device reconnects, then open the sharing again.
What is Thread?
Thread is a low-power, low-latency wireless mesh network standard based on the IEEE803.15.4 wireless protocol. It operates in the 2.4GHz frequency band and is an open-source protocol released by Google. It can be understood as an enhanced version of Zigbee that supports IPv6 and is specifically designed for home device networking. Its main features are as follows:
Network Stability:
It adopts a mesh network topology. Each node in the network can act as both a client and a router to assist in information transmission. Even if a certain node fails, it will not affect the operation of the entire network, thus being able to provide a stable and reliable network connection.
Low Power Consumption:
It is optimized for the characteristics of Internet of Things devices, especially those powered by batteries. It can minimize the power consumption of devices while ensuring their normal communication, thereby extending the service life of the devices.
High Security: It has a powerful security mechanism. Strict security measures are adopted in all aspects, from device authentication, encryption to data transmission, to ensure the communication between smart home devices is secure and reliable and to prevent data from being stolen or tampered with.
Native Support for IPv6:
It has built-in support for IPv6, making it easier for devices to access the Internet and enabling them to communicate with cloud platforms or other external networks, providing a broader space for the interconnection of smart home devices.
How Thread and the Matter Protocol Work
At the Network Architecture Level:
The Matter protocol is at the application layer, while Thread, as a protocol for the network layer and below, provides network connection support for the Matter protocol. In a smart home system, Thread-enabled devices can form a local wireless mesh network, and the Matter protocol utilizes this network to achieve communication and interoperability among devices. For example, smart lights, sensors, door locks and other Thread-enabled devices are connected through the Thread network and then work in coordination under the unified management of the Matter protocol.
In Terms of Device Connection:
Devices that support the Matter protocol have multiple network connection methods. Sub-devices that support the Thread protocol can first be connected to a gateway device that supports the Matter protocol, and then the gateway device is connected to the home router and further integrated into the entire smart home network. For example, a Thread border router can connect multiple Thread devices together and communicate with a Matter gateway, enabling these devices to interact with other Matter-enabled devices.
During the Data Transmission Process:
When devices need to transmit data, for example, when a temperature sensor wants to send the collected data to a smart thermostat, the data will first be transmitted in the Thread network, routed from the sensor node through the Thread mesh network to the corresponding receiving device. The Matter protocol is responsible for encapsulating, parsing and processing the data to ensure that the data can be correctly understood and interacted among different types and brands of devices, guaranteeing the accuracy and consistency of data transmission.
In Achieving Interoperability:
The Matter protocol defines a unified data model and communication specification, enabling Thread-based devices to achieve seamless interoperability with other Matter-enabled devices, such as those based on Wi-Fi, Ethernet and other different network protocols. For example, users can use a Matter application on their mobile phones to control both Thread devices and Wi-Fi devices in their homes at the same time, realizing the unified management and control of smart home devices.
