How do I set up Alexa on my Senville mini split?

Note: Some mini split packages include a USB Wi‑Fi kit that only works with the Amazon Alexa application. That Alexa‑only kit cannot be used with the Senville/NetHome Plus app. To use the Senville app, a different USB Wi‑Fi kit (Senville Smart WiFi Kit for iOS and Android, model OSK102) is required and is sold separately. For the Alexa‑only kit, ensure the indoor unit is in AP mode when pairing via the Amazon Alexa app. 

The following article is for setup of Alexa-based kits included with our mini split systems. For instructions on setting up the non-Alexa based WiFi Kit click here.

Follow these steps to connect your Senville mini split to Alexa using the Alexa-enabled USB kit:

Step 1: Download the Alexa App

1. Download the Amazon Alexa app on your smartphone.
2. Create an account or sign in.

Step 2: Install the Alexa Module (USB Kit)

For LETO Series:

1. Open the front panel of your indoor unit.
2. Insert the Alexa-enabled USB key into the designated slot inside the unit.

For AURA Series:

1. Disassemble the display box.
2. Insert the USB key into the appropriate slot.

Step 3: Attach the QR Code

1. Locate the QR code provided with the Wi-Fi kit.
2. Attach it to the side panel of your mini split where it is easily accessible, or take a photo and store it securely.

   You will need this QR code to register your device.

Step 4: Enable AP Mode

1. Turn on your air conditioner.
2. Press the LED button on the remote control 7 times until the indoor unit displays "AP."

Step 5: Connect in the Alexa App

1. Open the Alexa app and tap the Devices icon in the bottom-right corner.
2. Tap the + icon in the top-right corner and select Add Device.
3. Choose Air Conditioner as the device type and select Senville from the brand list.
