Big Ass Fans recommends using Google Home Room names that match the room names you provided in the Haiku app. Google Assistant will recognize the following command formats:

For fans:

• “OK Google, turn on my living room fan.”
• “OK Google, turn off my living room fan.”
• “OK Google, set my living room fan to 50%.”
• “OK Google, turn up my living room fan.”
• “OK Google, turn down my living room fan.”

For lights:

• “OK Google, is the living room light on?”
• “OK Google, turn on my living room light.”
• “OK Google, turn off my living room light.”
• “OK Google, set my living room light to 80%.”
• “OK Google, brighten my living room light.”
• “OK Google, dim my living room light.”

Note: At this time, you can control power, light brightness, and fan speed using voice commands. Google Assistant cannot make changes to other settings such as Smart Mode, Motion, Whoosh, or color temperature.

Once Alexa discovers your Haiku fans or lights, it assigns room names based on the room names you provided in the Haiku app. Alexa will recognize the following command formats:

• “Alexa, turn on/off my family room fan.”
• “Alexa, set my family room fan to speed 30%.”
• “Alexa, turn up/down my family room fan.”
• “Alexa, turn on/off my family room light.”  
• “Alexa, set my family room light to 80%.”
• “Alexa, brighten/dim my family room light.”

Note: At this time, you can control power, light brightness, and fan speed using voice commands. Alexa cannot make changes to other settings such as Smart Mode, Motion, Whoosh, or color temperature. 

This typically means there are two entries for one Haiku device in Alexa’s database, or that two separate fans, lights, or rooms have the same name in the Haiku app. For example, you may have named two rooms “Bedroom” in the Haiku app.
