PIXIE SECONDARY DEVICE: Directional signal bridge in PIXIE wireless smart home system
PIXIE Portal - Wireless is an innovative directional signal bridge in PIXIE wireless smart home system. It significantly extends the wireless control distance in one direction, while keeping the controlled devices of the far end in the same PIXIE network, without the involvement of internet.
It is suitable for the application that a user needs to control a small quantity of PIXIE devices in a far secondary location of a property (e.g. a shed), from a primary location (e.g. the main house) where a larger amount of PIXIE devices are installed.
The PIXIE Portal - Wireless works in a pair of two, one is set to “Main” mode (working as main station) and installed at the primary location; the other is set to “Satellite” mode (working as satellite station) and installed at the far secondary location. Once set up, the two PIXIE Portals will bridge the communication across the two locations (much longer than normal PIXIE wireless communication distance), making the control possible and stable, as if the PIXIE devices in the two locations were just close-by.
