The Deako app connects to and syncs with the Alarm.com app, which, in turn, syncs with your security panel if one is installed.
Complete setup in the Deako app
Before you can control your Deako switches in the Alarm.com app or on the security panel in your home, the switches need to be connected to the Deako app and connected to WiFi.
Open and log into the Alarm.com app
Open the Alarm.com app on your phone and login to your account.
Select ‘More’ at the bottom right
Select ‘Add Device’
Select Lighting and Appliance Control
Select Deako Smart Device
Select Next
If a prompt asks, select Continue
Select Login/Sign Up
You are going to log into your Deako account through Alarm.com.
When you follow these steps to log into Deako through Alarm.com, it connects the two apps.
Sign into the Deako app
- Sign in with Apple is not a supported Alarm.com integration path. If you only use Apple login for the Deako app, invite another non-Apple user to your Deako profile, and use those login credentials to integrate the two platforms. EG if you use 123@appleid, add a second user to your home 123@gmail, and use the 123@gmail credentials to tie Alarm.com and Deako together.
Select the Deako home profile you want to tie to Alarm.com
- This is what it would look like if you had 3 homes that all have Deako Smart Lighting. Select the home that you want to connect to Alarm.com.
- Only 1 home can be connected per email address. When setting up 2 or more homes, use a different email address for each one. EG 10414@gmail and 49408@gmail. If you use the same email address for both homes, only the one that was added last will be integrated with Alarm.com.
The connection will take a moment before finishing
- If you have a security panel in your home with your Alarm.com account connected, the Deako switches will automatically show up on your panel in less than an hour.
That’s it!
