Setting up your Broadlink RM4 Pro-S RF Remote Control Hub is straightforward. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Download the Broadlink App: Begin by downloading the "Broadlink" app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android) and install it on your smartphone or tablet.

2. Power Up the Hub: Connect the USB Type-C power cable to the Broadlink RM4 Pro-S hub and plug the other end into a power source. Ensure the hub is turned on.

3. Connect to Wi-Fi: Open the Broadlink app and follow the on-screen instructions to connect the hub to your Wi-Fi network. Make sure you enter your Wi-Fi credentials correctly and that the hub is within range of your router for optimal connectivity.

4. Adding Devices: Once the hub is connected to your Wi-Fi, you can add your devices. Tap the "+" icon within the Broadlink app to add a new device. Select the device type (RF or IR) and follow the app's guidance to pair your device with the hub.

   • For RF Devices: The hub supports various RF devices operating at 433 MHz. Place your RF device in pairing mode and follow the app's pairing instructions.
   • For IR Devices: The hub supports a vast library of over 50,000 IR devices. If your device isn't in the database, use the learning function to teach the hub the IR commands from your existing remote. Point your remote at the hub and follow the app's instructions to teach it the commands.

5. Control Your Devices: Once your devices are added, you can control them directly from the Broadlink app. Open the app, select the device you want to control, and use the on-screen controls or sliders to operate it.

6. Set Up Automations: The Broadlink app allows you to create scenes and routines for automation. Design custom scenes to control multiple devices with a single command or schedule routines to automate device operations based on time, temperature, or other triggers. This enhances the smart home experience.

With these steps, your Broadlink RM4 Pro-S RF Remote Control Hub will be set up and ready to control your devices. Enjoy the convenience of managing your home gadgets from your smartphone.
