Through WIFI connection to the smart cloud, you can achieve intelligent remote control of BOYU smart devices, including water pumps, aquariums, lights, and smart pet products. As long as the devices are connected to the network, you can remotely control and monitor the operational status of the devices in real-time by your phone. The system allows for adjusting the working modes, operating parameters, light modes, timing settings, and various preset modes for multiple devices. For example, adjusting water pump flow and switch, controlling light tones and brightness during different time periods, and choosing from 6 simulated natural modes to create effects like sunrise, sunset, moonlight, daylight, overcast, and lightning. Additionally, 3 preset modes enable one-click setting for optimal lighting effects for raising goldfish, fluorescent fish, and aquatic plants. With intelligent automatic control, multiple custom modes can be set for the water pump to output different water flow rates at different time intervals, improving filtration efficiency. The lighting can be set to different color temperatures and brightness levels during different time periods, simulating natural environments. Intelligent WIFI remote control significantly enhances the efficiency of each product and expands usage scenarios, providing a feasible solution for integrating into comprehensive smart home applications across different scenes.
