Voltas Vertis Platina ACs do not come with built-in Wi-Fi or smart capabilities, which means they cannot be directly connected to a mobile app for remote control. However, there are third-party solutions available in the market that can help you achieve remote control functionality using an IR blaster.
Here's a general step-by-step guide on how you can do it:
IR Blaster Device: Purchase an external IR blaster device that can be controlled through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth from your mobile phone. There are several options available in the market, such as Broadlink RM Mini, Logitech Harmony Hub, etc. Ensure that the IR blaster you choose supports compatibility with the MI remote or any other remote app you prefer.
Setup IR Blaster: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to set up the IR blaster device. Typically, this involves connecting the device to your Wi-Fi network and linking it to the remote app you want to use.
Adding the AC to Remote App: Using the remote app that works with the IR blaster, add a new device and select the appropriate AC brand and model. If your exact model is not available, try selecting a similar one from the same manufacturer.
Learning Mode (If Necessary): In case the remote app doesn't have your AC model in its database, you can use the learning mode (if supported by the app) to program the IR blaster with the AC's remote control signals. During this process, you'll point the AC's remote at the IR blaster and follow the on-screen instructions to teach the IR blaster the AC's commands.
Control Your AC: Once the setup is complete, you should be able to control your Voltas Vertis Platina AC using the remote app on your mobile phone, sending commands to the IR blaster, which then transmits them as IR signals to your AC unit.
Please note that the specific steps and capabilities of the remote app and IR blaster may vary depending on the brand and model you choose. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines to ensure compatibility and successful setup.
Since my information is , it's possible that newer models or updates might have been released since then. I recommend checking Voltas' official website or contacting their customer support for the latest information on smart features or compatible accessories for your specific AC model.
