How does Cozify work?

With Cozify you can automate wireless devices built by different manufacturers to work seamlessly together. Basic control of devices, like turning lights, devices and music on and off is done using super easy-to-use Cozify app. You can create rules to improve the experience, by for example setting the lights to turn on when you enter the room. Or bind together more complex set of features, like turning lights on, play music and switch fan on in the morning at 7:30am.

In the end, only your own imagination sets the limit how to utilize Cozify home automation.

How do I add a 433MHz signal transmitter to Cozify?

The signal transmitter device itself is not paired with Cozify as a device.

The signal transmitter listens arriving 433MHz messages and if it detects a signal it's been taught to recognize, it passes the message forward as it is.

There are two different types of devices:

Devices that are being commanded to do something (e.g. power plug)
Devices that are sending messages (e.g. motion sensor)

First pair the device (not the transmitter device itself, but the device that sends the message that you wish to transmit with the transmitter) to Cozify normally in close proximity to the hub.

After you've succesfully added the device to Cozify and seen it reacting to / sending to Cozify the commands, this device's signal is being then taught to the signal transmitter device.

• Press the pairing-button from the signal transmitter device and after that put the power plug or other device you wish to on and off in such phase that the device reacts correctly. End the pairing mode of the signal transmitter device. Now the signal of the controlled device is sent to Cozify via the signal transmitter.
• For the devices that are sending messages to Cozify (e.q. motion sensor) press the pairing-button in the signal transmitter device and after that make the motion sensor to sense movement, which the signal transmitter device registers and passes on to hub. End the pairing mode of the signal transmitter device. Now the signal of the sensing device is sent to Cozify via the signal transmitter.

I'm not able to add a supported device to Cozify?

The devices are added/paired to Cozify during the setup process. Later, devices can be added from the DEVICES section by cliking the (+) icon at the top right corner.

In case the pairing isn't working for some reason, try the following:

433Mhz devices (e.g. Nexa / Proove)

1. Bring the device close to Cozify hub and re-start the device adding process in the app.
2. In case the device scanning can't find the device, reset the device according to the manufacturer's instruction, take the battery off for a while and try again.

Proove power plug

Firstly, try to pair the device in close promixity to hub. If it doesn't work out, try resetting the plug to factory settings, before trying to add the device again. Reset instructions:

1. Press the button of the plug for 5 seconds, until the light starts blinking
2. Press the button once again, the plug should make a couple of clicking sounds
3. Pair the device to Cozify again following Cozify's in-app instructions

In case of multiple Proove plugs, make sure the plugs are further than 1 meter away from each other to avoid signal interference

OSRAM LIGHTIFY power plug

Firstly, try to pair the device in close promixity to the hub. If it doesn't work out, try resetting the plug to factory default settings, before trying to add the device again. Reset instructions:

1. Take the plug out from the wall
2. Press the plug's button down and insert the plug to the wall while still pressing down the button
3. Release the button when the plug makes a clicking sound

OSRAM LIGHTIFY lights

In case you are not able to add your Osram Lightify light to Cozify, try resetting the light:

1. Reset Osram Lightify lamp by putting the device on for 5 minutes, and then off for 5 minutes.
2. Repeat this On/off procedure 5 times. Once the resetting is succesfull, the lamp goes once off for a short while.

PHILIPS HUE lights

1. Go to device scanning mode by pressing from DEVICES view top right corner the (+) icon
2. Turn on the Hue lamp
3. Wait patiently atleast 30seconds until the device appears on the added devices list. (Sometimes it takes longer for the lamp to respond to the pairing requests)

The pairing works the best if the lamp is during the procedure next to Cozify hub

In case this doesn't work, the lamp can be factory resetted with a Philips Hue Dimmer Switch:

1. Bring Philips Dimmer Switch right next to the the lamp you wish to reset, and press the I and 0 buttons simultanously
2. Press the buttons for 10seconds - until the light flashes a couple of times

What can I do with Sonos wireless speakers?

Music can be turned on and off when needed. Set the right volume, pick up songs and radio channels from your Sonos favourites and play lists. Start playing music automatically when you enter the room or schedule the song to wake you up in the morning. Sonos Play:1 is humidity resistant, so it is optimal for use in a terrace or in a bathroom.

What can I do with Nyce or Belkin Wemo motion sensor?

With motion sensors you can guide your lights, power switches and wireless speakers to turn on when you step into the room. During night time the lights can be set to switch on dimmed when someone is in a need for a late night snack or needs to take a moment in the bathroom.

What can I do with Belkin Wemo Insight Power Switch?

Power switch is a powerful device to turn small household devices on and off, remotely. You can turn fan on from the couch, set the coffee maker to turn on automatically in the morning, set your chili plant lights to turn on and off with an optimal schedule, and a lot more.

Notifications, what if I want to receive notifications ?

You can create a rule to send notification to you when someone is moving at your home when you are at work. Also, it is possible to receive notification, when your child arrives home from school. Or from his or her hobbies.

Or go even beyond. Send notification when lights are turned on. Send notification if someone plays music at 2am (in other words, your teenager is having a blast when you are travelling). Send notification if electric device has been on over 20 minutes. And so forth.

Rules and scenes are mentioned here and there. What are these?

Rules group together devices; set how and when you want devices to act. With rules you can tell to lights to switch on when motion on is noticed. Light color, brightness and temperature are stored in the rule. Rules are stored under a scene.

You can store one or several rules, or individual devices under a scene. For example, turn lights automatically on, turn music on and switch power socket on. All this at 7:30am. Name of the scene could be for example "Wakeup". Scenes can be set to turn on automatically, or on certain time and day. Scenes can be scheduled to follow your daily rhythm. Home works in a certain way during night time. In the morning your devices and lights follow your morning routines.
