Quick Answer
Set up your Tapo H110 Smart IR & IoT Hub in under 10 minutes by connecting it to the Tapo app, placing it within line-of-sight of your IR devices, and adding each appliance via the built-in database.
What You Need Before Starting
The Tapo H110 requires a stable 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network and the Tapo app (iOS or Android). Make sure your smartphone is connected to the same network you plan to use for the hub. The hub itself needs to be plugged into a power outlet near your infrared appliances—ideally within 10 meters and with a clear line of sight, since IR signals do not pass through walls or solid objects.
Step-by-Step Setup Guide
- Step 1: Download and Open the Tapo App: Install the Tapo app from the App Store or Google Play. Create an account or log in if you already have one. Tap the + icon in the top-right corner and select 'Hub' from the device list. Make sure your phone is on the same 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network you will use for the hub—5 GHz networks are not supported.
- Step 2: Power Up and Pair the Hub: Plug the Tapo H110 into a power outlet. Wait for the LED to blink orange (slowly). In the app, follow the on-screen instructions to scan for the hub. Confirm the hub's serial number if prompted. If the LED does not blink orange within 60 seconds, press and hold the reset button on the hub for 5 seconds until it blinks orange.
- Step 3: Connect to Wi-Fi: Select your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network and enter the password. The app will send the credentials to the hub. Wait for the LED to turn solid green, indicating a successful connection. A common mistake is entering the wrong Wi-Fi password. Double-check it before confirming.
- Step 4: Add Infrared Appliances: After the hub is online, tap 'Add Device' in the app. Choose the device type (e.g., TV, air conditioner, set-top box) and brand. The app will test a series of IR codes. When your device responds (e.g., turns off/on), confirm the match. If no code works, try moving the hub closer or removing obstacles between the hub and the appliance. The IR signal range is about 10 meters.
- Step 5: Set Up Voice Control (Optional): In the app, go to Settings > Voice Control and link your Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant account. Follow the prompts to discover the hub and assign each appliance a friendly name (e.g., 'Living Room TV'). Voice commands only work if the hub is online and the appliance is within IR range. Test by saying 'Alexa, turn on the Living Room TV.'
