Operating the Projector
Switching On/Switching Off
To turn the projector on, connect the power supply cable to the inlet socket on the rear of the projector. After connecting the power, the projector will revert to whichever on/off state it was in when the power was last disconnected. If the projector was on when power was last disconnected then it will come on. If it was in standby (off) when the power was last disconnected, it will go into standby mode (light and motor off).
The ‘Manual Control Button’ next to the power socket is used to control the projector in basic (non-App) mode. To turn the projector on or off, press the button once briefly.
Dimming the Image
The projector has a bright dimmable light that is perfect in a home environment.
To dim the image in basic (non-App) mode, turn on the light (if not already on), then press and hold down the ‘Manual Control Button’. The light will gradually dim down and then back up again and will continue to do so as long as the button is held. To set your desired

Note:
It may take up to 15 minutes for liquid wheels to start to work as they contain oil that will flow freely once heated. This heat will come from the projector.

Feel free to experiment and familiarise yourself with all the powerful functions in this section. (You can always edit or even delete anything you create if you go wrong at first). Groups If you have more than one Solar 80 (or other compatible OPTI devices) added to the App, you can create a group containing two or more devices and control all devices within the group together at the same time. It is also possible to create more than one group if you wish. To create a group, open the Device Panel for one of the individual devices. Click ‘EDIT’ (top right), then select ‘Create Group’. A list of all available devices will appear, with the one from the currently active Device Panel shown at the top, as the first device already added to the group. Select which other devices you wish to add to the group by clicking on them , then click ‘Save’ (top right). A pop -up will appear asking you to name the group. Enter a name of your choice and then click ‘Save’. A new Device Panel will now appear displaying the name of the group you just created and you will now be able to control all the devices in that group simultaneously. When you return to the Home page (left arrow – top left), you will see that the new group is listed along with all the individual devices. You can perform basic control of the group from the Home page in the same way as for an individual device, or you can click on the group and go to the dedicated Device Panel to gain full control.
To edit or delete a group, follow the same procedure as for a single device, as described in ‘Editing & Deleting’ above.

Aura
Note: if you later add more devices in your OPTI Kinect App, they might not automatically be recognised by Alexa and you may need to manually recognise them by clicking ‘+’ on the Alexa Devices tab and ‘Add Device’. Similarly, if you change the name of a device from within the OPTI Kinect App you will need to delete the old named version from the Alexa App and re-add it to Alexa with the new name. Google Assistant To activate Google Assistant voice control, make sure the Google Home App is logged into the account you want to use for voice control. Open the OPTI Kinect App and click on ‘Me’ (bottom right). There you will see the Google Assistant logo. Click on the Google Assistant logo and then click on ‘Link with Google Assistant’. The Google Home App will open. Click on ‘Agree and link’. Your OPTI Kinect account should now be linked to your Google Assistant / Google Home account. After a few seconds your devices from the OPTI Kinect App should be listed in the Google Home App and you are asked to choose from the list. This is where you assign devices to a location (Home) and specific rooms within the Home. You do not need to assign all the devices to the same Home and room, but if you wish to do so then select them all, otherwise just select the ones you want to assign to one specific room. (You can configure the remaining devices later within the Google Home App). Next you are asked to select the room to which the chosen devices will be assigned. Select an existing room from ‘My Rooms’ or create a new room using ‘Create New’. Once you have selected a room, click ‘Next’. All your devices will now appear on the Home page of the Google Home App and be assigned to rooms according to the selections you made previously. Those devices not assigned to a specific room will be included in the ‘Linked to you’ list of devices. (Note: to assign one of these devices to a specific room, long press the device button and its dedicated Device

Panel will open. Click the ‘Add to a room’ button (bottom left) and follow the room assignment procedure as described previously).
You can now control your OPTI devices via the Google Home App or via voice commands using an appropriate Google Home compatible device. Note: if you later add more devices in your OPTI Kinect App, they might not automatically be recognised by Google Home and you may need to manually recognise them by clicking ‘+’ on the Home page of the Google Home App, then clicking ‘Set up a device’ . Once on the ‘Set up a device’ page, click on ‘Works with Google’. A list of manufacturers will appear with those which are already linked to your Google account shown at the top. Opti Kinect should be listed here. Select it and then click ‘Check for new device’. On the next page select ‘Agree and link’. The App will then search for new Opti Kinect devices and they should appear in the Google Home App once completed. Similarly, if you change the name of a device from within the OPTI Kinect App you will need to delete the old named version from the Google Home App and re-add it with the new name using the method described above.
