  • If you want to improve your home security, create a rule for motion sensors to operate at bedtime and activate the notification feature. When the motion sensors detect unexpected movements, they will notify you.

Notifications & Alerts: The Samsung Connect Home Pro App lets you receive notifications & alerts so you know when a task has been completed or something has happened. For example - get notifications when your washer and dryer finish their cycles, get notified when someone arrives at your front door, and/or get an alert if your smoke detector goes off.

Firmware & Software Updates: The Samsung Connect Home Pro will automatically receive firmware & software updates over its network/internet connection.

Manual Reset: If your installation is not going so smoothly or your WiFi seems awfully slow, try resetting the Connect Home. Get a paper clip or anything with a thin tip and gently push the reset button located at the back of the Connect Home until the green indicator light turns off,

Mounting Options: The Samsung Connect Home Pro Smart WiFi System (ET-WV530) is designed to be simply placed on top of a flat surface - such as a table, desk, shelf or piece of AV furniture. It should be placed out in the open (and not inside a cabinet or compartment) for best wireless performance.
