Roomie Remote 3 New Features in Roomie Remote 3.1

LG SMARTTVS AND LG WEBOS TVS

Roomie Remote 3.1 supports both LG SmartTVs and LG WebOS TVs; refer to the LG

Television section of the IP Compatibility list for supported models. These televisions are

auto-discovered and controlled via direct IP, including mouse and keyboard control.

Note: LG televisions cannot be powered on via IP, so most scenarios require additional control

such as provided by a Roomie Blaster Complete. Refer to the Roomie Remote Store for more

information.

If you will be accessing content via an LG SmartTV or an LG WebOS TV, create an activity for

it after adding the device. Enter the appropriate pairing code when prompted during the

creation of the activity.

SMARTTHINGS AUTOMATION

Roomie Remote 3.1 lets you send commands to devices controlled by a SmartThings hub; for

example, turning lights on or telling your Sonos speakers to speak text.

To control a SmartThings environment, configure it according to the manufacturer’s

instructions, then add your SmartThings hub as a device (in the Cloud Services section of the

Add Device screen) in Roomie Remote. Log in to your SmartThings account when prompted.

Note: Roomie Agent 2.1 for OS X and above accepts commands from a SmartThings hub,

letting you send Roomie Remote commands to any device based on SmartThings events

(information about Roomie Agent is available here). For example, you can turn on lights or a

TV in Roomie Remote based on a SmartThings motion detector. Refer to the Roomie

Agent/SmartThings Integration Setup Guide for more information.

INSTEON WEB SERVICES

Roomie Remote 3.1 supports the new Insteon Hub 2245. You can use Roomie Remote to send

commands to devices controlled by the Insteon Hub 2245, including turning on lights,

switches, and more.

Note: The new Insteon Hub 2245 is a new generation hub with an updated design. If you are

planning on using an Insteon Hub, Roomie Remote recommends the 2245. The previous

generation of the Insteon Hub, 2242, is not supported by Insteon web services.

To control an Insteon Hub 2245, configure it according to the manufacturer’s instructions,

then add it as a device (in the Cloud Services section of the Add Device screen) in Roomie

Remote. Log in to your Insteon account when prompted.

Note: When creating remote designs with multiple lights to display feedback, Roomie Remote

recommends no more than one or two lights. Upcoming improvements from Insteon in this

area should make lights feedback more efficient; when these improvements become available,

they will be supported in a maintenance release of Roomie Remote.
