<< Back to Adding a Device On to Adding a Command >>
On the Device Setup screen you can change basic device information such as the device display name, and manage the list of device commands.
Name
The Name section contains basic identification information for the device: its display name, and description. This information is visible in many different parts of the RedEye application, including the main Devices screen. You can edit either value by tapping on the appropriate row and entering a new value using the onscreen keyboard.
Details
The Details section displays information about the device’s type and model. The RedEye application uses this information — such as the device type — when configuring activities and other functionality. Because these values are fundamental to the device, you cannot modify them on this screen. If you need a device with a different model name or type, you should add a new device.
Commands
Commands represent the signals you use to control your device. You can edit or delete an existing command by tapping on the command name. Also, you can add a command using the “learning” capability of the RedEye base station by tapping on the Add New Command row.
To reorder the list of commands, tap on the Edit button at the bottom of the screen and drag the command rows into the desired arrangement. When you are finished reordering, make sure you tap the Done button to save your changes.
Moving, Copying, or Deleting a Device
Copy Device to Another Room allows you to create a copy of the device and all its commands to a RedEye in another room. This option can be useful if you have the same model of device in multiple rooms (for example, as with a set-top box from a particular cable or satellite service provider). Select the room to which you wish to copy the device and tap on Save button to copy the device information and all of its commands.
The Copy Device to Another Room button is only available if your iPhone detects more than one RedEye on the current network. If you have multiple RedEye rooms but you do not see this button, tap the Exit Setup button at the top of the screen and verify that you see only one room listed on the main Rooms tab in the RedEye app. Then check to make sure that your other RedEye device(s) are powered on. If you still do not see them in the Rooms list at this point, you may need to go through the initial setup process to ensure that they are connected to the Wi-Fi network you are currently using. When you are ready, return to the Device Setup screen and tap the Copy Device to Another Room button. A list of available rooms will appear.
Move Device to Another Room is similar to the Copy Device to Another Room button, except that after the device and command information has been copied over, the device and its commands are removed from the current room. This option can be useful if you are moving a piece of equipment from one room to another.
Delete Device removes the device and all of its commands from the RedEye system. This operation cannot be undone. If you are moving the device to another room in which you have a different RedEye device, you should use the Move Device to Another Room button instead.
