Note 4: Google Assistant Compatible Device Names
Cielo Smart Controllers names should be compatible with the Google Assistant. Google Assistant does not understand names with special characters or numbers. It only understands simple English names for devices. To use Google Assistant with Cielo Smart Controllers, we recommend users to name these devices accordingly. Following guidelines must be followed for the Google Assistant to be able to control your Cielo Smart Controllers for your air conditioners & heat pumps:
- Use names with alphabets only. For e.g. “Bedroom”, “Bed Room”, “bedroom”, “bed ROOM” all are unique in writing but not in hearing. Google Assistant will hear “bedroom” for all these names. Google Assistant will only send the command to the device that comes first in the search if there are two devices with similar names.
- Google Assistant will not be able to identify device if there are any spell mistakes, for e.g. “bedroooom”.
- Google Assistant will not be able to identify names with special characters or numeric, e.g. “b3dr00m”, “bedrom.”
