Features

Overview: The Linxura (pronounced link-sure-ah) Smart Controller (SCHA-1-SP) is a small, handheld smart remote that can control multiple devices in your home. Smaller than the size of a hockey puck, Linxura works with all types of smart home devices, from robot vacuums to security cameras, and from door locks to lights. It works on multiple platforms, and with your favorite voice assistants, but does not require multiple apps. Linxura weighs only 2.38 ounces, and comes in a variety of colors.

Wireless: The Smart Controller works wirelessly to control your devices and interface with your smarphone. It is compatible with Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n 2.4 GHz) and with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) version 4.2 or later. It works with both Windows PCs and Macs, as well as Android and iOS devices. Support for Matter will be added soon.

Voice Assistants: Linxura is compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Home voice assistants. If the Linxura Smart Controller isn\’t handy, you can control your devices using voice commands.

E-Paper Display: Linxura has a 1" diameter e-paper (electronic paper) display. E-paper mimics the appearance of ordinary ink on paper, and is easily viewed in direct sunlight. It is extremely efficient, and saves battery power. The screen can display up to four devices at once.

User Interface: The Linxura Smart Controller has an easy-to-learn interface that you can customize to fit your lifestyle. Surrounding the e-paper display is a 2-1/4" diameter control ring with four buttons at 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270° (marked with LEDs). Icons for up to four devices appear on the display adjacent to the LEDs, allowing you to select which device you want to control. Once selected, you can rotate the ring clockwise or counterclockwise to maneuver through the menu options. The button adjacent to the desired action can be clicked to trigger that action, or double-clicked to continuously trigger the action. The Smart Controller\’s Presentation Mode and Media Player Mode can be used on Android and iOS smartphones and Windows and Mac operating systems. Camera Shutter Mode is available only on Android and iOS devices.

Scenes: In the Linxura App, you can create fully automated scenes that can be triggered with a single button press. For example, a "Morning" scene can turn on lights in several rooms, raise the blinds, set the temperature on the thermostat, turn on the radio or TV, and start the coffee maker. The programmed actions can be instantaneous, or on a timer, as suits your needs.

Linxura App: The Linxura App lets you manage all of your smart devices from one single user interface. You can control multiple devices in real time, or on timers, individually or in groups, to fit your lifestyle. The app lets you control your devices at home, or from wherever you are. The app can have multiple users, so you can share control with anyone in your household. The Linxura App is compatible with iPhone and iPod touch running iOS 12.0 or later, and with Android devices running Android 7.1 and up.

Rechargeable Battery: The Linxura Smart Controller is powered by a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery which charges via USB-C (cable included). You can check the battery level on the display, or in the Linxura app. A fully-charged battery should last approximately three months.

Find My Controller: If you misplace your smart controller, you can activate the "Find My Controller" feature in the Linxura app to help you locate it. When triggered, the controller will beep repeatedly until it is located.

Wall Mount: You can mount your Smart Controller on the wall or other flat surface with the optional Linxura Wall Mount (sold separately). The mount is equipped with strategically placed magnets that securely hold the controller to the mount, and properly orient it so the display is readable. The Wall Mount can be attached to the wall with two screws or adhesive pad (both included).
